However, both he and Urid are captured by Asera and they work together to escape, but Urid is badly injured in the process. Ryas is forced to take a detour to gather the parts needed to fix the cable car before continuing his pursuit.

Upon reporting his findings to Marad, Ryas receives his pardon and is allowed to continue the search for Urid. Upon defeating the Thundermaw, Ryas shuts down a transmitter that was acting as a lure for the machines, and finds another sign left behind by Urid showing he has gone off to the settlement Mother's Tears in Nora territory. He climbs his way up Talonreach until he reaches an Old One facility at the top, where he is forced to fight the Thunderjaw.

Ryas reluctantly agrees, and Aloy guides him to the Sunspear before departing on her own mission.
