During development, Naughty Dog deleted an entire level of Ellie going to the Seraphite island, in a way to humanize the primitive cult. This particular scene is meant to showcase to the players the human side of the Seraphites. Unfortunately, this scene is nowhere to be seen in the final product because it didn't progress Ellie's arc.
"It was really cool. The designers had a lot of great elements to it, but we ended up scrapping it because it didn't move her story along narratively," Gross told The Washington Post.
