Aloy knows that when you don’t have any talent for applying makeup, you need to be resourceful.

Yes, that’s how she uses Fashav’s knife now.

I couldn't decide on which face paint she’s applying, so here you have 4. Another one, very silly, and the reference I used under this line

People of the Nora, On the eve of your Proving, know the Carja stand with you as the softest light frames the stoutest trees. As those you have nurtured take their places among your initiates, we join your prayers that they will stand tall in the Sun. I am grateful for your audience to be taken into your Embrace. I thank the wisdom of your elders, the mercy of your mothers, with our tribes united in trade and in trust. I pray that the Nora may never again mourn the death of a child in battle. We do not forget our history. We do not forget the sins of my father. We do not forget the Nora children who bravely defended your lands. Their blood is a stain on the honor of the Carja. Our actions blotted out the Sun’s light with smoke and cruelty. Nora mothers, brothers, sons—I have grieved as you have. I lost my own brothers, and at the hand of he who raised us. You, strong in spirit, have been an example to me. So let me restate my vow: no harm will come from the west. Look with me to the future. With the strength of the Nora is the strength of us all. No men, no machines, stronger than the bonds between us. To the young warriors, to the honored elders, I bless you. May your mothers’ hands and the light of the Sun forever guide you. So concludes his message, thus as it was written by His Radience Avad

Beautiful women of HZD

Edit: women and trans man. Thanks for the tip. I talked to Janeva recently. Aloy didn't want to let her break her arm just to take a look.

When in the Sundom, do as the Carja do: make art that's just plain extra.

Seriously, like, why's my favorite tribe gotta be the sexist one?!

From what we know, the Tenakth, Utaru and Banuk don't really differenciate between the genders.

The Nora value mothers/grandmothers more, but they also don't discriminate by gender (but by their female ancestros?)

Now, the Carja sexism I get, it isn't anything we haven't seen before, whole "the sun is reborn as the first born son so obviously the daughters don't matter, there's now Sun Queen, yada yada" and with the Quen having a whole Empire I bet my organs they have a same system.

But the OSERAM?! They don't have a leader, they only value tinkering and being a master forger and stuff but WOMEN ARE STILL DISCRIMINATED AGAINST?! Like, we have Asera, who was aknowledged as one of the best forgers but couldn't have her own forge because she's a woman, and Petra also left the Oseram capital to build a place where everyone can be themselves!

Literaly my favourite tribe and they are the ones with the unfounded sexism?! (All sexism is unfounded but at least with the Carja I get the thought process!)
