Horizon before dawn

Early in the morning i made my perparations to my leave my base for a few days, i needed more suplies and moore important to see Aloy.

I made my way top side climbing my very primitive and sloppy rope ladder i had hiden the place the best way i could by puting some branches and dry grass to cover the rope, not that the Nora would go to that place in the first place but seeing me coming and going would bring me moore problems i realy dont want right now or ever.

Time to hunt i needed better arrows só i needed meat for trade and find some outcast that is willing to trade with me.

I went to look for prey near Rost place, he was a good guy só maybe if i keep silent e would give me some arrows for food, for the tribe was is warcry só i doubt he would harm a inocent outcast kid.

Entering the tall grass i pick up my senses turning on my focus made hunting much easyer, my bow still sucks and my arrows are bad but now i could actualy see the prey and catch them off guard. I picked up a turkey near a stream of water and quickly pick my target and just like that one arrow one kill, but i dident stop here i picked up the sense of fish and add them to my rústic bag, and só on i keep going until i actualy run out of arrows, hunting with my crude make woden spear was just not posible nor did i had the stamina to run afeter a wild boar.

So now was the time to go to Rost place and see whats hapening there.

The way there was way longer that i was expecting i had to hide from a pack of scrapers and travel realy slow só i actualy reach me destination in one piece.

- Why is this guy such a hermit? Like a seclueded monk. Dam you Rost!

I couldent help but complain, it was realy far and dangerous for little young and old me, but sudently afeter slow wallking for hours i see the woden walls of his place and i was impresed, by local standarts this place was like a mansion, several meats neatly ordered around small fires in order to smoke the meat for later consuption training dummies to honor your skills and a palicade to guard it all, truly impresive what this guy did alone.

- So now comes the hard part.

I murmured to myself, he would not speack to me for sure and maybe even not trade anything but i just had to see her.

- Guah gu ahhhh.

- Whats worg Aloy? Are you ungry little one?

Ok. So She is alive, and by the sounds still a baby, good, very good, it means i have more time to get stronger and learn more old tech without all the machines going crazy.

Picking up all my courage form my inner self i started going forward his house, the door was open and that man senses are absurd, just a few steps inside is domain and with a crying baby he could hear my footsteps as he quickly pick up a spear and rush forward, but seeing just a kid with a fish in one hand a turkey on the other he stoped moving and looked at me kinda wary and confused.

- Hello there brave warrior, Im just looking for a fair trade. Im out of arrows and dont know how to craft my own but Im willing to trade for food. Please sir i realy need it i cant hunt or even go back to my place with a woden spear.

One minute of silence, five minutes of acward silence, and Aloy decides to intervine again.

- guh rur ros.

Seeing i was not what passes by a bandid in these lands he turns back to the house to see the little one. And i just stod there waiting. Five minutes have passed and nothing, Aloy is not making any noise now só i guess she is sleeping. And 10 more minutes passed and nothing. And 20 more minutes passed and nothing. It was getting both late and ridiculus. If he dident trade with me i would have to sleep on the wild tonight. 20 more minutes passed and i was about to give up and go to a big tree and try to sleep like a lion in the jungle when he returns looking deep at my eyes like is reading my soul for 10 more minutes. Seriussly? He is getting off about this?! What a weird dude. Just send me away or trade its been one hour and my legs hurt just make up your mind.

Afeter another 10 more minutes of deadly silence and eyes contact he finaly decides to send me away with a gesture. For the All Mother mighty virtual tits Rost, get a grip man.

Since i already know what kinda a person he is i dont even try to talk to the guy and just nod at him making my move out of is primitive mansion when i finaly pass the palicade i sense something flying over my head, a quiver, an actualy leather quiver with 20 arrows, ah Rost you big sofety tedy bear you just dident want my food i get it now, hahaha, turning to say thanks to the man i heard a loud noise a door banging. Well, scratch that softy, this guy have more problems that me and now Aloy is crying again good job Rost you big meanie.

Its best to run away before he blaims me.

- What a weird day man.
