- "Those ruins... that must be Devil's Thirst. A city of the Old Ones. Of the Metal World."
- ―Aloy, upon first sighting Devil's Thirst
Devil's Thirst (formerly Colorado Springs, CO) is a ruin site in Horizon Zero Dawn located in the Sacred Lands, north of the Embrace and east of Mother's Rise.
Description
Devil's Thirst is the southernmost city ruin in the Sacred Lands. It is home to the only Tallneck in the east.
History
Outlanders
Before the Derangement, a group of twelve outlanders invaded the Sacred Lands, taking hostages from Mother's Vigil to deter the Nora from persuing them. They camped beyond Metal's Thirst for two days; it is unclear what their intentions were, although there were reports of strange noises.
The Eclipse
After the Proving and War Party massacres, the weakened state of the Nora prompted bandits to invade the Sacred Lands in search of prey. One group of bandits camped in Devil's Thirst, knowing that the Nora's religion kept them from entering the ruins to chase them.
