Kaiser-Franz-Josef Hütten, Tyrol, Austria [Monday, daytime]

Good morning Fandom High students, teachers, and assorted guests! Ready to hit the slopes? The answer had better be 'yes', because that's what was happening today whether you liked it or not. Once your lesson was done, of course, you were free to do as you wished, whether that was continue hurtling down a mountain at ridiculous speeds while strapped to long sticks, or go warm up with some delicious hot beverages.

"I've seen those," Aloy mused. "Looks useful for long distances, but not more than that."

She and Rost had never done long distances. The valley was only so big.

"Yeah, give me a comfortable pair of shoes, or better yet, an animal bred for transport," Mara said.

"Animals bred for transport?" Aloy echoed. "Is that a thing here?"

Mara nodded. "And back home as well," she said. "Is it not true for you?"

"Not really, no," Aloy said. "My people live off the land."

~~And also those animals hadn't been spoiler spoilered yet.~~

"Farmers or hunter-gatherers?" Mara asked, looking interested.

"That last one, mostly," Aloy said. "We farm a little, but it's not enough to keep us alive."

"Interesting," Mara said. "What brought you to our school, then?"

"Accident?" Aloy said. "I didn't want to be here."

Mara winced. "I'm sorry," she said. "Have you at least found your time here to be valuable?"

"No."

"Not at all?" Mara asked.
