[Aloy lingers in the tree a while, this time readying her bow once there's some distance. Just in case the girl's getting some running distance for another go. It's just been such a feral attempt to catch her, eventually a person would have to draw a line and escalate.

But Ellie doesn't turn back. She mumbles to herself.]

[Once it seems safe, she'll drop down again. Her ability to notice details does involve a degree of cheating, but Aloy's skulking over to see what's up with the note, pressing her Focus to scan it first and foremost. She lingers, staring into the air as she reads.

And tries to keep her face steady. A mother's hopes and goodbye all wrapped up in one.]

Old glyphs. Anna...I have to see if I can get this back to her, if she can get her head level again.

[Aloy collects the paper, careful with it. It would be important to her if it was her mother's note, so she assumes it has the same importance to Ellie.]
