Summary
“What is it about you that brings back their inner neanderthals?” Robin questioned with a light tone.
Nancy rolled her eyes, slightly blushing.
“The undying male need to save the girl, I guess” she shrugged.
Robin chuckled.
“Like you need any saving.” Her smile was so bright it almost blinded Nancy. Robin’s beauty always caught her off guard.
“I wouldn’t mind being saved by you.”

Summary
Seyka has committed the ultimate crime.
After stealing a Diviner’s Focus in an effort to save her people, Petty Officer Seyka is cast out of the Quen. Thrown into the wilds with nothing but her sword and the desperation to stay alive, she journeys east to seek shelter in the bustling settlement the locals call Meridian—away from the spears of the Tenakth and the bloodlust of the rebels.
After months of struggle, death, and grief, Seyka has reached the farthest edge of the Sundom, finally seeing the path to Meridian within her reach.
Until she meets a redheaded huntress in the woods of the Daunt… wielding a Focus.
A complete retelling of Horizon Forbidden West, set in an AU where Seyka joins Aloy at the very beginning of her adventure in Chainscrape.

Summary
When the marine sees her, she forgets what she was saying.
She’s a vision in the setting sun, bathed and haloed in the golden light. It’s been at least two months since she last laid eyes on her, and she’d almost forgotten how the sight of her makes her heart skip.

Summary
Hear the tolling of the bells—
Iron bells!
What a world of solemn thought their monody compels!
In the silence of the night,
How we shiver with affright
At the melancholy menace of their tone!
For every sound that floats
From the rust within their throats
Is a groan.Nemesis has finally arrived on Earth.
