Kotallo's Salutes - Updated!
"May the Ten walk with you..."
Something Kotallo does that i love is how he salutes Aloy. I've never seen this salute and now i want to do it all the time.
What i like about the first one is the swooping hand motion, a flourish on top of the standard one we're used to in present time. To me it imitates the flight of the metal flying machines their mythology of the Ten is based upon, and i love that spin on a salute that just further enriches the lore of this world.
--Update!
"May the Ten guide your way..."
^ I randomly saw this one and it further solidifies my headcanon! It takes more effort to swoop your hand out like this than do a regular salute, so it must be intentional! Idk why i'm so obsessed with this idea lolπ π΅βπ«
I can just see the old fighter jets that now litter the lawn of Memorial Grove, in their prime.π Or the flight of any Glinthawk, Stormbird or Sunwing!
Extras!
"We walk the warrior's path..."
Also i love how he looks at her. And his blinks haha. He's so sincere and respectful...sometimes lol.
"And keep an eye on the sky."
"Strike true as the Ten."
"I'll see you back at base."
-- I love how solid that one is.
She even starts mirroring his salutes β₯οΈ
