These cultists happen to be part of a rebel Carja group known as the Eclipse. When Aloy awakes, a Matriarch explains that the cultists had gained control of corrupted machines. With explosives planted on the ridge, he rolls Aloy off the edge of the mountain, just as an explosive blast destroys him and – presumably at this point – everyone else on the ridge. Just before her throat is slit, Rost scrambles up and saves Aloy. In fact, Aloy is almost killed by their leader Helis, who holds her up by the scruff of the neck, growling for her to “face the sun.” What happens at the Proving? Does Aloy win?Īloy wins the competition, besting her competitors but the Nora are attacked by cultists before Aloy can don her crown. With her ancestry a secret (for now) and many details still a mystery, when Aloy comes of age she enters a competition called the Proving, which grants the winner the opportunity to become a Nora Brave, and – more importantly – a member of the Nora tribe. It also allows Aloy special perceptive abilities to see the world in a far more advanced way than her hunter brethren. These fatherly duties fall to Rost, who teaches you the skills necessary to become a proficient hunter.īefore that occurs though, Aloy obtains a Focus during her first playable section of the game a small augmented reality device that offers up a glimpse of the past.
With the basic background of the world established, the story puts you in the shoes of Aloy, a curious young girl cast out of the Nora tribe at birth and raised as an outcast. Even worse, larger and more deadlier versions of these machines have started to appear. These areas are dominated by large robotic creatures known as machines.Īlthough they peacefully coexist with humans, a phenomenon known as the “derangement” has prompted a lot of these machines to grow more aggressive and attack humans. In between these tribes lie vast stretches of rolling hills, abandoned settlements and breathtaking vistas. The final tribe are the Oseram, who are well-known for their metalworking – and arguing. High up in the North lie the Banuk a motley band of shamans and hunters who adore machines. In the dry, choked deserts lie the Carja, who are city builders and worship the sun. This is the first tribe you encounter in the game. The Nora Tribe are fierce hunter-gatherers who live in the mountains and worship nature, known lovingly to them as “All-Mother”.
These aforementioned tribes inhabit different sections of the world. Most religions in this new world order revolve around the sun and nature, while our technologically advanced civilization is colloquially known as the “old ones.” Thin pockets of humanity left in the world live in small tribal-like populations with limited access to technology. Horizon Zero Dawn takes place in the 31st Century, with mankind’s future still uncertain. With that in mind, let’s dive in! The world of Zero Dawn Within this we’ll cover all the big plot points, including our theories over what will happen in the sequel too.
