I don't want to be salty about the ending of Second Song because it does provide a genuinely lovely moment, BUT:
Zo is totally absent from that moment. I can't fathom it. Like, a) we should be there to see her reaction (this means so much to her, but she's left at the other end of a phone call!) b) it's an example of Friendship Helping which the game keeps telling me is mega important and c) it means that once again, Aloy is shown striding boldly across other Tribes' boundaries with no comment. Even if it's not her idea, in that moment all the framing is on her.
d) I've spent very little time with Zo so far and this could've been a step towards dealing with that.
