I talked to Tilda and then I went to the beach instead of going home. I wanted to find a Sunwing to try my new override power that I got from Beta. I went to a beach at night and saw a big machine. A bird from a tower saw me and tried to kill me.

I finished talking to Tilda and I had to go back to my base. But I decided to go to a different place first because I wanted to try overriding a flying machine.

The ocean looked very good from the high mansion. I jumped off the side and used my glider to fly through the air and land on the sand by the water.

I landed near the beach and I saw some machines there. I thought they were going to be hard to kill, but I took them down easily and kept riding ahead, leaving the shore behind.

I faced some very big machines on my way that tried to hit me. I did not want to fight them right then, so I just ignored them and kept going very fast.

I used a campfire to travel to the island so I could find a bird. I was happy to try the new override power that Beta gave to me during our last talk.

I saw more machines while I was looking for the Sunwing site. I hit them and did a lot of damage so I could pass and keep looking for my target.

It was already nighttime when I got to a far beach. I saw a very big machine and a small one walking on the sand, which looked very dangerous in the dark.

I saw a bird sitting on a high tower far away. I thought it was the bird I wanted as my mount, so I decided to go toward it and try to catch it.

I killed the small machine on the beach very quietly. But the big machine saw the dead body on the sand and started to attack me with a lot of rage.

I was not ready to fight that big machine at all. I ran away as fast as I could, and I was confused when it seemed to stop following me so quickly.

I went into the forest to hide, but then something hit me from the sky. I realized the machine from the beach was still mad and it was still trying to find me.

I saw it was not the machine from the beach, but the bird from the tower. It came down from the sky to hunt me because the other machine gave it a signal.

I hid in the long grass for a very long time. The bird was looking for me from the sky, and I saw it was the wrong kind of bird for my power to override.

I waited for the bird to fly away to the other side, and then I ran. I went very far away so the bird could not see me or find me anymore. Then I checked on my future hunt for one last time.

I explored Tilda's private exhibition before confronting her about the Zenith betrayal. Tilda returned Aloy's repaired Focus, expressing admiration for her achievements. After a heated debate, Tilda opened a data channel to Beta, allowing Aloy to promise a rescue and reveal her plan to seize Sylens's weapon.

On my way to meet Tilda, I found an exhibition space filled with her favorites from her collection. She had secured and stored these treasures here just before she went off-world centuries ago.

Without wasting time at the exhibition site, I ran directly toward Tilda and found her waiting. Aloy started the discussion with a sharp question about how Tilda had managed to find them at the cauldron.

After some talking, Tilda offered Aloy some breakfast to steady her, and Aloy followed her to the table. However, she refused to sit down or have a friendly chat after everything the Zeniths had done.

Tilda insisted the others were not her people. To bridge the gap, she gave Aloy her old Focus, which Tilda had personally repaired.

The Focus showed images of Aloy's childhood. Tilda mentioned that what Aloy accomplished in two decades was more than Tilda had done with a thousand years at her back, which clearly impressed her.

After a brief conversation with some meal, Aloy wanted Tilda to open a data channel to talk to Beta. Tilda initially rejected the idea because they might be detected by the other Zeniths.

Aloy mentioned the risks were necessary for survival, and Tilda finally opened the channel. It allowed Aloy to see Beta, who looked like she was in a state of virtual reality dissociation to cope with her situation.

Beta responded, saying they were watching her and she couldn't hold the extra projection for long. She projected a version of herself, and Aloy promised her sister that she would get her out of there.

Tilda asked what they were planning. Aloy mentioned she was going to take Sylens's army away since she only needed the weapon he made to penetrate the Zeniths shields. She confirmed she would use the override Beta gave her at Gemini and ended the conversation.

As Beta revealed the ability to override Sunwings, the Zeniths launched a brutal assault on the facility. Despite a brave defense, Erik murdered Varl and captured Beta, leaving Aloy devastated. Unexpectedly, Tilda intervened to save Aloy, transporting her to a secure, high-tech sanctuary to recover and regroup.

After finishing the merge, Beta found a hologram of a Sunwing and projected it for Aloy. It was a clear sign that I would soon be able to override these flying machines and soar above the world.

The celebration was cut short when the Zeniths suddenly broke into the facility. One of them spoke with an air of superiority, making it clear they had been tracking our progress for a long time.

Aloy stepped forward to defend the core with her bow, but the Zeniths' technology was far beyond ours. One of them fired an explosive that knocked her back instantly.

As Aloy hit the ground, Varl bravely stepped up to shield her and Beta. Beta hovered behind him, her face filled with terror as the invincibility of their attackers became clear.

Erik, one of the most sadistic Zeniths, was ordered to retrieve Beta and squash Varl. Varl tried to use the environment to his advantage, bringing a heavy machine down on Erik to pin him.

The trap didn't hold him for long. Erik jumped out from the wreckage with a terrifying rage and lunged at Varl, who desperately tried to defend himself with his spear.

Erik smiled as he overpowered and killed Varl. It was a heavy moment; even though Varl could be annoying at times, seeing him go down like that while trying to be a hero was genuinely painful.

With Varl dead, Erik seized Beta. She begged Aloy to do something as she was dragged away, but Aloy was pinned down and powerless, left to weep as her sister was taken.

Tilda was ordered to prepare Gaia and Hephaestus for transport, but she went rogue. She told Aloy that all is not lost and did something that whisked Aloy away to safety.

Aloy woke up in a strange, pristine location. Tilda's voice echoed through the room, explaining that they were safe from the other Zeniths and asking her to come meet her whenever she felt ready to talk.

I fought an intense battle against a Slaughterspine, utilizing its charging moments to land critical hits. After a grueling struggle, I defeated the machine and overrode the generator. Returning to the core, Beta successfully contained Hephaestus, and Aloy assisted her in the delicate process of merging its functions with Gaia.

I never thought fighting this Slaughterspine would be this difficult. The machine was relentless, throwing every plasma attack and physical strike it had at me while I tried to keep my pace.

There were moments where it felt like the machine was doing everything possible to take me down. I could hardly find the space to fight back against its constant pressure.

I realized the best time to strike was when the machine was charging up its energy. Those brief windows were my only real chance to deal significant damage before it unleashed its full power.

Once the Slaughterspine was fully charged, its wrath was incredible. I had to stay perfectly active to avoid being vaporized, but I kept pushing through and landed several heavy hits.

After a very long and exhausting fight, the machine finally collapsed. I walked right up to its scary-looking mouth to inspect the damage before looting the massive carcass for parts.

With the threat neutralized, I moved to override the generator coupling. Hephaestus was finally forced back into the core, its primary defenses within the Cauldron broken.

I returned to find Varl and Beta. Beta confirmed that Hephaestus was 100% contained and immediately asked Gaia to establish the link to begin the merge process.

To finish the merge, they had to carefully excise the malicious code Hephaestus had integrated into its systems. Beta handled the complex technical work while Aloy did her best to follow along and assist.

Aloy navigated through a gap in the energy shield to reach the cooldown chambers, where she faced a deadly mix of Spikesnouts and a Fire Bellowback. After a grueling battle with an Apex Clawstrider, I used a Shock Boltblaster to secure the area. Finally, the massive Slaughterspine was unleashed in the assembly chamber.

After overriding the first uplink, I had to find a way into the cooldown chambers. The energy shield was blocking the direct path, and I spent quite a bit of time searching for a way around its perimeter.

I finally found a high vantage point that allowed me to jump across a small gap in the shield. I landed on the other side safely, though I had no idea what kind of reception Hephaestus had prepared for me.

As soon as I arrived, I was surrounded by dangerous machines. A Spikesnout immediately caught my attention as the primary threat, as its buffs can make the other machines much harder to deal with.

A Fire Bellowback started raining flames down on my position, making it impossible to stay still. I pivoted my focus and targeted its cargo sac, causing a massive explosion that took it out of the fight quickly.

With the Bellowback gone, I went back to finishing off the Spikesnout. It wasn't quite as tough as I initially feared once I was able to focus my fire without being burned alive.

The real challenge was the Apex Clawstrider. It was incredibly fast and hit like a truck, so I struggled for a while until I pulled out the Shock Boltblaster. Paralyzing it with electricity finally gave me the opening I needed to win and override the uplink.

With the cooldowns handled, I returned to the main assembly chamber to corner Hephaestus. That’s when the massive machine on the assembly line finally broke free—a Slaughterspine, the first one I've ever had to fight.

I pursued Hephaestus deep into a Cauldron, navigating dangerous drops and production chambers. After a failed attempt to glide through an electrified shield, I rode metal carriers to reach a new area. Despite an ambush by a Grimhorn and secondary defenses, I fought through the machines to continue the override.

I had to pursue Hephaestus into the depths of the Cauldron. Leaving the heavy weaponry and the rest of the team behind, I started pushing forward into the unknown.

I was in such a rush that I actually fell and died twice in this section. On my third attempt, I took things a bit slower and finally managed to safely reach the other side.

I found a massive production chamber where Hephaestus was clearly hard at work. Beta asked what kind of machine was being built, and while Aloy didn't have a specific answer, she was determined to destroy it regardless.

I tried to use the pullcaster and glide to float inside, but I hit an electrified shield instead. The shock sent Aloy reeling, proving that Hephaestus was well-prepared for any intruders.

To force Hephaestus back to the core, I had to follow the conveyor system. I caught a ride on one of the large metal carriers, using it as a moving platform to cross the gap.

While still hanging from the carrier, I spotted a machine directly below me. I went for an aerial silent strike, but the machine was unexpectedly tough and survived the initial blow.

My strategy had to shift immediately as more machines joined the fray. I took a fair amount of damage while trying to manage the crowd, but I kept pushing through the chaos.

Once the immediate threats were cleared, I moved to the network uplink to begin the override. Just as I started, Hephaestus activated countermeasures and deployed a set of secondary defenses to stop me.

A Grimhorn appeared alongside a swarm of other machines, significantly increasing the pressure. The Cauldron floor became a frantic battleground as I dodged their heavy attacks.

Since I was playing on the easiest difficulty, I felt confident enough to get in close. I stayed aggressive, attacking the machines at point-blank range until the secondary defenses were finally neutralized.

I met Gaia and started the big mission to Gemini. After a long ride through the night, the team reached the facility and got into position. Things went wrong when Hephaestus escaped and forced the machines to fight us. I had to take down a Behemoth and a Ravager to keep everyone safe.

And I'm sharing them for the Gaming Photographs.

Gaia asked me to meet her once I was ready for the big mission. I went to her and decided to head straight to Gemini since I had everything prepared and was ready to move forward.

The whole team was shown riding their mounts through the night in a somber cinematic. The atmosphere felt heavy as they traveled toward the facility under the moonlight.

The night slowly faded into morning as they kept riding across the landscape. They picked up the pace midway through the journey to ensure they reached the objective on time.

After reaching the facility, Varl, Aloy, and Alva set up their machines during the cinematic sequence. Everything was being prepared for the containment process to begin.

Aloy had to make sure the others were ready for their parts of the plan. All the team members, who had split up to different spots, confirmed they were in position and ready to go.

After Gaia started the containment sequence, Hephaestus detected a critical threat and escaped. It launched countermeasures while Gaia fought off malware, which caused the nearby machines to turn aggressive and attack us.

The team got ready to fight as a big Behemoth and a Ravager appeared. Both machines were strong enough to wipe out the whole team if we weren't careful.

I made the Behemoth my first target. I attacked it with all my power and managed to take it down real fast before it could do too much damage to the group.

Then I used the Ravager's cannon, which I had detached from it earlier, against the machine itself. I took it down quickly and neutralized the immediate threat to the team.

After getting back to the base to regroup with my allies, I spoke with Erend, Varl, Zo, and Alva. Then I consulted GAIA about the mission's complexity. Aloy ultimately convinced Beta to join the team by sharing the memory of Ross and their differing upbringings.

After the race on the beach, I started riding towards the base to meet GAIA. On the way, I was fascinated with the beautiful details of the dense forest as the sunlight filtered through the trees.

I noticed the map was working fine again, so I stopped at a campfire to use fast travel. This allowed me to bypass the long trek and get back to the base much faster.

After fast traveling to the closest campfire, I approached the mountain entrance. I climbed up the steep rocks using a rope to reach the main entrance of the facility.

The first thing I did after getting inside was check on Erend. He was talking as if he already knew every single detail about my recent adventure on the island.

Then I talked to Varl and Zo, who were both glad that the mission on the island was a success. They confirmed they were ready for the next mission we would have to do together.

I went to check on Alva, who looked completely fascinated by all the technology around her. She had just received an upgraded Focus from Zo, and Aloy suggested her to take it slow.

I visited GAIA to discuss our next approach to the Zeniths. GAIA explained the complexity of the mission, and Aloy suggested that having Beta's help would make everything much easier.

Before going to see Beta, I used the drone terminal to upload the surveillance drone data that I collected this data from the island.

I went to Beta, but Varl mentioned she was not acting very positive about helping. Aloy tried to convince her, but Beta remained stubborn because she felt she was nothing like Aloy.

Aloy used her Focus to show a hologram of Ross to explain their differences. She wanted Beta to understand that the only real difference was that Aloy had Ross to raise her.

After Aloy tried all her convincing tricks, she sat close by as the hologram of Ross faded from the room. The emotional weight of the memory seemed to hang heavy between them two.

Aloy told Beta she didn't have to join the mission and started to leave the room. However, Beta finally spoke up and said she would join them after all, having been moved by Aloy's words.

I departed the island by boat under a beautiful moonlit sky. After a suspiciously fast mount summon on the mainland, I stumbled upon a group of racers. Despite being shot from behind and forgetting the controls, I reclaimed the lead and won the beach race.

I was riding toward the beach where I left my boat to get off this island. I noticed several machines lurking on my path, but I decided to ignore them to save time.

After reaching the boat, I noticed a dead body pinned right under a machine carcass. I hadn't noticed this grim detail when I first arrived on this island earlier.

I went for the boat and Aloy started pushing it toward the ocean. A cinematic played showing her riding across the waves during a beautiful moonlit night toward the distant shore.

She reached the other side while it was still nighttime. After hitting the beach, I called my mount, and it appeared to travel from the island to me in a single second.

I started riding for the base to talk to GAIA, but I ran into a racer group I had challenged before. They offered a rematch on the beach and I accepted.

They challenged me again, and I didn't hesitate to try one with the beach.

My last race was a long time ago, so I almost forgot the controls and needed a moment to adjust. I struggled initially to find my rhythm on the sandy trail.

Suddenly, I got shot from behind and almost fell off my mount, but I held on tight. After recovering, I began taking down both the racers in front and behind me.

We reached an open beach where I noticed massive machines in the ocean. The commotion of our race even spooked some flying machines as we tore through their territory.

I got slowed down a few times, but I always fought back to my position. I rode through even more machines on the track and finally finished the race in first place.

^{My hard disk started messing up, so my last gameplay got damaged. I used Canva to make a video using my screenshots}

I attempted to leave the island after my game recorder malfunctioned. While searching for an exit, I rescued a woman trapped beneath concrete in a towering ruin. After igniting a path forward with my spear, I safely returned to my mount.

And I'm sharing this post for the Gaming Photographs Contest.

Starting with me riding out of the dig site, I was trying to get back to the shore where I had left my boat. I remembered leaving it there when I first arrived on this island to begin the mission.

After running around the coastline, I noticed there was only the vast ocean ahead of me. I realized I couldn't simply swim back to the mainland from that distance.

I rode back to the Quen camp, hoping to use the fast travel option. Unfortunately, the map was not working correctly, forcing me to find the other way off the island.

While riding towards the beach where I first landed, I met a man who asked for help. He mentioned his friend was stuck after climbing a nearby tower.

I decided to help and started climbing the towers using various handholds. I had to execute a risky jump between the decaying structures to reach the upper levels.

After all the climbing and gliding, I found the lady was stuck badly. She was pinned under a heavy piece of concrete within the high-rise ruins.

I used my spear to pry away the concrete so the lady could crawl out. Fortunately, she was not injured and asked me to find a way down for her.

The lady pointed out a hole in a wall that looked like an exit, but it was at a significant height. I navigated the walls to reach it.

I found a patch of Firegleam on a wall and ignited it using my spear. The resulting explosion destroyed the wall and created a safe exit path for us.

From the new opening, I could see both my mount and the man waiting on the ground. I realized this wall had been intact when I was climbing up.

I jumped off the ledge, knowing the lady could now climb down safely. I stopped riding shortly after when I found some striking scenes in the around.

I escaped a collapsing facility with Alva while the infrastructure melted around us. After witnessing Ceo's ironic death beneath Ted Faro's statue, I fought through the remaining Quen soldiers. We successfully negotiated our freedom with Bohai, leading to Alva joining our team at the secret base to assist with the recovered data.

The fire splitter was making me slow when the whole place started melting down, so I left it behind. I began running fast while Alva followed closely, as the structure was falling apart.

In this dangerous time, Ceo sent some of his soldiers to fight us. We had to kill them on our toes while navigating to safety, dodging falling debris and heat vents.

We reached the sacred corridor with a big statue of Ted Faro and noticed Ceo climbed up the statue to escape. He almost succeeded in reaching higher ground away from the flames.

The man did not have luck on his side. He fell off the statue, and the massive head of the Faro monument fell directly on him, resulting in a horrible death.

The fallen statue made a way for us, acting like a bridge over the melting floor. We started walking on it carefully to cross the gap filled with molten machinery.

After getting to the other side, I noticed Aloy had fire on her back from the heat. There came some more Quen soldiers to stop us, and I had to fight them off.

There were no more soldiers to stop us; it was just the melting place falling apart. We ran fast, and the ladies finally got out of there alive at last.

Bohai was waiting for us with some soldiers and asked about Ceo's whereabouts. Alva tried to cover for us, saying Ceo sacrificed himself to save them from the collapse.

Bohai was not foolish enough to believe Ceo would sacrifice himself for others. He asked for the truth while his soldiers pointed their arrows at us during the tense standoff.

Aloy told the truth, mentioning the data found there could help the Quen if she worked on it. Bohai released them, insisting Aloy take Alva along to receive updates.

Alva looked happy to work alongside Aloy. Aloy suggested she head to the secret base to meet Varl, and she also sent a message asking Varl to welcome her.

I discovered a hidden hatch to bypass the locked door, uncovering voice logs and biometric data detailing Ted Faro's failed attempts at immortality.

Despite Aloy's warnings, the CEO entered the chamber and, in his disappointment, ordered our execution. I fought back using heavy Imperial weaponry to blast through the Quen guards.

After looking around for some time for an alternative route, I noticed there was this ceiling hatch that I could pull open. I used my pullcaster to wrench it down and climbed through.

It looked like I was sliding downwards through a narrow ventilation shaft. With the help of the photo mode, I got a good view of the mechanical surroundings as Aloy moved deeper into the structure.

After getting to the other side, I found a console that Aloy started analyzing using her focus. The ancient technology hummed to life, revealing secured files and encrypted communications from the Old World.

Aloy found data where Ted Faro left some voice messages and she started listening to one of them cautiously. Suddenly, she heard a thudding noise coming from the other side of a locked door.

She checked the biometric monitor and understood that Ted did something to himself to live longer, but it didn't go well. The data suggested his cellular regeneration had mutated into something monstrous over the centuries.

At that moment, Ceo went in as his soldiers broke the door open and asked Aloy what she had found. Aloy mentioned there was nothing that the Ceo was looking for, trying to protect him.

Aloy suggested Ceo not to go in there, but he didn't listen to her advice. He went in just to return with a horrified face, knowing his idol was not the legend he imagined.

After coming out of that room, Ceo ordered one of his soldiers to burn it down. Aloy asked them not to, as Ted had rigged the facility to melt down if the chamber was compromised.

Ceo didn't listen to Aloy; instead, he asked his soldiers to kill both Aloy and Alva. He wanted no witnesses to the pathetic reality of the man he once worshipped.

Now, both me and Alva had to fight those Quen soldiers who turned on us instantly. Two of them in the room were equipped with massive, high-caliber heavy guns.

After taking down one Quen Imperial Guard, I picked up his Deathbringer gun to shoot down the other guard. I used the heavy firepower to quickly neutralize the soldier using..

I switched to the Fire Spitter and started moving ahead as we had to escape the facility. There were more guards on our way to stop us, so I started burning them up.

I arrived at the hall of Ted Faro's statue, where the Ceo mistook dormant machines for art. After Aloy confirmed they were active threats, the Quen fled, leaving us to destroy the machines. We then discovered a medical chair used for Faro's experimental, mutation-inducing gene therapy before seeking Omega Clearance.

And I'm sharing them for the Gaming Photographs.

We had to navigate to the big room where Ted Faro's giant statue was holding up. After reaching the chamber, they saw some machines that looked like statues standing in the shadows.

Seeing the machines, Ceo mentioned they were just statues. He was busy appreciating all the works around the room, completely unaware of the mechanical danger lurking right in front of him.

Aloy guessed something was not right, so she used her Focus and confirmed those were not statues, but live machines. All the people escaped the room in fear, leaving Aloy and Alva alone.

Now that the ladies were all alone, they had to take care of two big machines there. I took down one completely and then Alva helped me taking down the other one with ease.

Then we went deeper into the facility. The Ceo followed us closely, leaving Bohai behind to manage the guards as we descended into the more private sectors of the ancient bunker.

There, they noticed a machine that the Ceo guessed was a reclining throne. It led us to an apparatus that Alva's Focus could not read, so I had to try using mine instead.

Using the Focus, I got information about this chair. A doctor had made minor adjustments to the gene therapy regimen and added a new cocktail to treat symptoms caused by Faro's mutations.

The Ceo wanted to know what Aloy saw, and she said that Faro was undergoing treatments to live longer. He was trying to extend his life for centuries, regardless of the physical cost involved.

We continued our journey, searching the abyss for Omega Clearance. We reached a locked door that the Ceo asked his soldier to break open, while Aloy decided to look for an alternative way.

I bypassed some turbine fans to enter Thebes, discovering a gymnasium and a surprisingly fancy survival bunker. After I opened the bunker door for the Quen, Ceo appeared dressed as Ted Faro. He forced Aloy to wear Elizabeth Sobeck’s ancient raiment before they descended further into the facility.

There was this fan that was pushing me behind, so I was not able to get to a vent. I looked for an alternative way and found a console to stop the fan. And I had to do a similar thing once more to move ahead.

Here at last, I arrived inside Thebes and found myself in a gymnasium area. It looked quite ancient, reflecting the old-world fitness culture that Ted Faro had preserved in his bunker.

I had to look for a way to let the Quen in, so I started exploring. After passing a living area, I reached a big place that looked pretty fancy for a survival bunker.

There I noticed a console for the bunker door that I had to activate to let the Quen in. I worked on the interface to override the locks and grant them access.

After opening the gate, Alva noticed Bohai was there to appreciate her work. Bohai mentioned Ceo was preparing to enter Thebes now that the path was finally cleared for their entrance.

Then Ceo came out dressed like Ted Faro, which annoyed Aloy. Ceo mentioned he was Faro renewed, as his essence remained the same as Faro's across the generations.

When Ceo said they would descend together, he asked his people to bring Aloy the raiment. This was an ancient suit belonging to Elizabeth Sobeck that Aloy initially refused to wear.

Ceo threatened Aloy for her life when she refused to wear it, so she had to accept the outfit after Alva asked her to. She did it just to see what would happen next in the mission.

Aloy changed into that outfit and came out looking like Elizabeth Sobeck. Though she did not have her bow in the cinematic part, it suddenly appeared on her back as I moved ahead.

After getting inside the inner chamber, I found this big statue of Ted Faro. I noticed Ceo and Ted Faro looked remarkably alike, further fueling Ceo's strange delusion.

I met Alva at the dig site after defeating a machine beast, only to be interrupted by Ceo and Bohai, who sought Ted Faro's tomb. When a massive titanium door blocked our path, I dived into the flooded construction passages, navigating dangerous turbines and high pressure to find a way inside.

After taking down the machine beast, the door to the dig site was opened for me. There I met Alva, who was happy that I got rid of that machine so she could continue her research.

While the ladies were having a good chat, there came Ceo along with Bohai and some of their soldiers. Bohai appreciated the work of Aloy, and then Ceo mentioned they were there to enter Thebes.

All of them started walking towards the underground cave to find the entrance to the tomb. The cinematic at that moment looked very cool as the Quen expedition moved deeper into the cave.

After reaching a big locked door that should lead to the facility, Aloy scanned it. She confirmed it was a titanium metal alloy door that was Gene-locked, meaning they could not break or destroy it easily.

Alva mentioned they had found evidence of passages below, perhaps built for construction or servants. However, she mentioned they were too far underwater for her to reach, so Aloy volunteered to help.

I jumped in the water and started diving without any hesitation as I already had gear that helped me breathe underwater. The flooded ruins were dark, but my focus helped me navigate the depths.

Far below, I noticed there was something glowing, so I headed towards it to investigate. A heavy water pressure was pushing me back upwards, making it difficult to maintain my depth in the current.

I noticed there was a hatch above leading to the other side, which looked like it could be my way out. I started swimming towards it, pushing through the murky water to find an opening.

When I reached this pipeline, both sides were covered with turbine fans. They were stopped at first, but one started rotating again, so I had to wait for it to be still before swimming through.
