Summary
Here are the three things Aloy learns, before running the Proving ever enters her mind. The first comes from Rost, the second from the wilds, and the third from the Nora themselves: Silence and observation are golden. Machines have much to teach you, and should be emulated where you can. Humans are not to be trusted.

Summary
Kotallo has been helping Hekarro learn to read Old One’s glyphs to complement his knowledge of Carja ones by using his Focus and their watching The Aloy Show together which means Hekarro is learning how to use a Focus.
Aloy owes Hekarro one because he assisted her in her Nefarious Plot.
Hekarro has some Nefarious Plots of his own. And some plans for diplomacy.(Sub-plot: the neurodivergent/social anxiety tendency for you to start thinking people don’t like you any more when they aren’t around is tough to deal with; especially in contrast with the neurodivergent tendency to not have any friendship-fade ((things are exactly as delightful the next time you see them as the last, even after months or years)) so the anxious assumption is almost always never true)
And then…
Once Kotallo feels secure in their regard, it’s time to make him a co-conspirator in nefarious plots! Just in time for Aloy to exact some (Welcomed) Diplomatic Retribution. Some revenge, if you will.Series

Summary
After eliminating the Zenith threat from the Southern Coast of the Tenakth, Aloy is looking for things to do to prepare for Nemesis while Marshal Kotallo gets used to being at his Chief's side again. Chief Hekarro invites Aloy to be an honored guest at the competition to elevate the next High Marshal, and she gets the orders to "have fun," which is easier with Diviner Alva there with a Quen delegation.
What could go wrong? Or, deliciously right?This relies on reading the first parts of the Trust, and the Release Will Come series (except for the Optional one) and makes frequent allusion to the events in those parts.
