Summary
“This machine sounds very powerful,” Kratos said. He was looking her right in the eyes; he had to see her tears, but he did not respond to them. “If it can exist, why cannot gods exist?”
Aloy felt her face fold into a grimace. “This again?” she hissed hotly.
“I am trying to understand,” Kratos said. His voice sounded subtly kinder, and his face had softened more than she’d ever seen it. It, too, caught her off guard.
“That machine is very powerful,” she said, though she couldn’t keep the frustration out of her voice. “The Nora think it is so powerful they worship it as a goddess. They call it All-Mother.” She practically spat the last words. “But it’s not a goddess. It was made by humans; it just does what it was told to do. The Nora just don’t understand it, so they call it a goddess.” She shut her eyes tight, the tears no longer flowing, the lump that had grown in her throat having melted into something angrier, less vulnerable. “Gods exist when humans turn something inexplicable into something magical, just to make the world simpler.”
SPOILERS possible for both games; the story takes place after the events of both of them

Extremely unusual, but just as well written and interesting.
