    The way the glimmering teal of her dress and the ginger of her hair complemented each other made Aloy look mystical, like a beautiful siren singing a sweet melody, and Erend was the poor sailor that answered to her song.

    Summary

    “Maybe I should go with you to Barren Light?” Aloy suggested, but Erend wasn’t having it.

    “No, no, you’re needed elsewhere, obviously,” he said dismissively. “We’ll make it without you.”

    Aloy hated how Erend was looking at her – or rather, not looking at her – his usually bright eyes dulled by sadness and resignation. Their reunion had not gone as she’d hoped. Though what had she hoped for exactly? Warm smiles and kind eyes? A touch, maybe even a hug? She couldn’t even remember the last time anyone had touched her outside of a fight.

    In any case, this was not the reunion she’d wanted. Her first instinct was to shy away, so she turned to leave, but then thought better of it. “No. I’m taking you to Barren Light.”

     

    (Or: What if Aloy did end up accompanying Erend and Aldur to Barren Light?)

    Summary

    Steel is strong, flexible.

    When put under pressure, it bends, and never breaks.

    As Erend is left behind without a word after the battle of the spire, his whole world comes crashing down, the remnants of the life he knew before burning down with the city he had fought so hard to protect.

    Even with his open wounds, Meridian needs him to serve his role as Captain, as does the Sun-king.

    So, Erend forced himself to make a choice.

    Bend, or break.

    Summary

    He hissed and turned, trying to scamper away from the huntress. Aloy sighed and raised her pistol. She hated when they ran. She aimed for one of his many legs and fired. Dervahl squealed in pain, cursing and swearing in whatever language his kind spoke. She wasn't very good with linguistics, felt that she didn't need it. She was the type to 'shot first, ask questions later'. She knew of someone else who was better than she was. Best not to think of them yet. While Dervahl writhed in pain, she sauntered over to the desk he'd been cowering behind to pick up a metal rod.

    While serving on the S.S. Meridian, Aloy does something that may cost her everything, including the ones she loves
