    Summary

    This remarkable letter of unknown provenance surfaced recently in the cuneiform collection of the University of West Wessex. Addressed to Azirapil from a Mr. “Crawly,” it appears to be begging for the other’s return to Ur from a western journey with another individual, Abiraham. The relationship between the two (brothers? business partners? friends?) is unknown.

    Summary

    "Aloy is struck by several thoughts then, one after the other:

    Firstly, that Erend’s wounds don’t seem to be quite as bad as she thought, now that she can seem them more clearly without his sleeve in the way.

    Secondly, that Erend has a very nice arm under that sleeve, besides his wounds, thick and solid with muscle and dusted with dark hair, and…

    Thirdly, tattoos. Erend’s shoulder and upper arm are covered in a weaving, geometric pattern of black tattoos.

    Aloy, in the process of unfastening her waterskin to rinse his wounds, finds herself taking a long drink to quench her suddenly too-dry mouth."

    After Erend gets injured in a fight, Aloy discovers that he is covered in tattoos, and then she discovers she might be in love with him.
