Breaking the Cordon.

 As machines breached the Cordon, Aloy, Zo, and Varl headed for the mountains without needing permission. Hunter-killers attacked Utaru farmers, forcing me to use stealth and ranged tactics to defeat them after multiple failed attempts. With the path cleared, we entered the cave, bypassed a light wall, and Aloy overrode a Cauldron Door, giving Zo a focus to help her understand the strange tech ahead.  As the machines broke through the Cordon, we didn't need permission from anyone to get to the mountain. After rappelling down from Plainsong, I started following Zo towards the Cordon and Varl was following us behind   When we kept moving, I noticed bunch of machines were fighting the Utaru farmers in the fields. They came from the Cordon and Aloy recognized them as hunter-killers. Zo suggested we should keep moving when the others will defend Plainsong but suddenly I got shot.  A machine shot me with something which slowed me down and I lost Zo. Thinking another lady as Zo, I followed her and there a machine targeted me and killed me.  It was the restart when I was following Zo through the field and that machine must be the one that shot me the other time. I didn't get shot this time though and I didn't lose Zo's trail as well.  As we kept moving, we saw many more machines one our way and they didn't look normal. Aloy was mentioning that there's more than just Minerva and a missing land-god in the cave.  We kept moving and reached this place with more machines and Varl suggested we could take them out on my lead. I got overwhelmed and started attacking the big machines and I died.   After several tries, I tried different strategy. I understood fighting them upfront was not the best strategy so I started escaping from them and attacking them from a far and with silent strike after hiding in tall grasses.   The machines were busy with the other Utaru farmers but when I was doing them good damage, all of them targeted me at once. I even had to hid from them and then I returned to them and took all of them out.   Found this powerful weapon after I was done with all the machines. I was carrying the heavy weapon so I could take out more enemies ahead and I could only test it on a dead machine.  The machine was too heavy and it was slowing me down, but I didn't leave it behind a I still didn't know if there were more machines ahead or not.   Then there I understood there were not machines ahead so I left the machine and entered the cave.   We found this wall made of light on our way and we couldn't break through. I tried but it looked like some powerful energy was pushing me away.  We had to look for a way around and I noticed this way right around that light wall. We used that way to get to the other side.   Then we reached this Cauldron Door that I had to override. After trying overriding it, Aloy suddenly stopped.   Aloy understood all these things would look strange and crazy to Zo without a focus. So she gave Zo a focus to understand what's going on there. --- The next post will be coming soon. Screenshots are my take from the game and I took the game logo that I used on the thumbnail picture from online. SEE YOU.
