Summary:

“There’s another battle ahead, Elisabet. Very different from the one you fought. It’s not about the distant hope of creating a new world, it’s about preserving the one we have.”

Aloy, Beta and their friends begin their preparations for Nemesis’ arrival whilst also living life to the fullest in case the worst should come to pass.
