A New England was a virtual representation of one of Eivor Varinsdottir's genetic memories, that was relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description[]
Eivor met a man talking about his England.
Dialogue[]
Eivor found a man on an island talking about his England.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Welcome, traveler, to our lush and fertile shores!
Eivor found a note posted near the man.
Torn and Tattered Flyer
- England is closer than you think!
Come and visit beautiful England. Rich fields and game-filled forests await.
Marvel at the walls of old Lunden or the busy streets of new Wincestre. You might even be lucky enough to meet King Alfred himself! The king is generous and offers land north of Hadrian's Wall for any strong enough to hold it.
And you will need great strength to battle the savages who make their home in the north.
They are an uncivilized people who will burn your homes and steal your children!
Join me in my fight to rid the land of the monsters!
(The writings degenerates into unreadable scribblings)
Eivor talked with the man.
- Eivor: I did not expect to find anyone on this island.
- Hysing the World-Wise: And why not? This is England. Home to a nation of Saxons and Danes. Our shores are open for trade.
- Eivor: England? It is not what I expected.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Many from Norway find the trip dizzying, but fortunately, you have me to guide you. I know the land better than my own son.
- Eivor: Are you all right?
- Hysing the World-Wise: My son. Nesting with the Picts north of Hadrian's Wall. Who knows what schemes they are hatching...or the sort of people they might send to spy on me.
- Eivor: You said something about a tour.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Of course, of course, a tour. Follow me.
Eivor followed Hysing.
- Hysing the World-Wise: This is the city of Lunden, first built by the Romans during ancient times. We have not seen builder like that since.
- Eivor: I guess they had to work with what they had.
Eivor continued to follow Hysing towards a cliff.
- Hysing the World-Wise: These are the Dover Cliffs, famous for their blue birds.
- Eivor: Hmm.
Eivor and Hysing made their way to a stone circle and a pillar.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Here is Jorvik, the Dane city of trade. Keep this between us, but King Alfred has a plan for Jorvik.
- Eivor: I see.
Eivor and Hysing went towards a broken-down small wall of rocks.
- Hysing the World-Wise: This is Hadrian's Wall. Our last line of defense against the barbarous Picts.
- Hysing the World-Wise: It is a line of sorts.
Eivor and Hysing ventured towards a house and went inside it.
- Hysing the World-Wise: At the end of the tour is Wincestre, the heart of Wessex, where — Where is King Alfred? Those honorless Picts! They have taken the king! We must seek them north of Hadrian's Wall!
Hysing ran out of the house.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Where are you my king?
- Eivor: I am sure he is somewhere.
Eivor ran after Hysing.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Do not worry, my king! I am coming! Do not worry, my king! I am coming!
They made their way to a camp, where Eivor found another note.
A Mother's Wish
- Djon,
This will be my last winter, the volva tells me so. When the earth reclaim my bones, you must come care for your father. He is still the man I married, but his mind is not well. I fear he will be sent to some Helish place if he dies this way. Please try to make his final days peaceful. Some say the gods decide where we go when we die, but I think it is how we live. Your reward will be great.
Asa
Eivor and Hysing soon went to a straw figure at the camp.
- Hysing the World-Wise: My king! What happened? Why won't you speak?
Another man ran into the camp.
- Djon the Woodsman: Who in Hel's name are you? Why are you going through my things? Thor's balls, you found it! Why did you take it back? You set him off again.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Traitor! The king won't speak to me! You cut off his tongue!
- Djon the Woodsman: He has no tongue!
- Hysing the World-Wise: Because you cut it out!
- Eivor: You are his son.
- Djon the Woodsman: Do not feed this fantasy. His wits wither and become those of a babe. I took him here to ease his madness, but it grows worse. I try to use reason or playing along, but he hears what he wants to hear.
- Eivor: "Only what he wants to hear", hm? I have an idea that could help...if you let me. Old man, your king is worn out from his ordeal. I can hear him speak, very softly. He is praising you. He wants to thank...
- Djon the Woodsman: Hysing.
- Eivor: He wants to thank Hysing for his loyalty to the crown.
- Hysing the World-Wise: What else does he say?
- Eivor: The Picts, terrified at word of your approach, will pledge themselves to the crown if you spare their lives.
- Hysing the World-Wise: They will?
- Eivor: And they agree to pay a daily tribute of food and other goods in exchange for free passage through your lands.
- Hysing the World-Wise: It is a good deal and greater news. Thank you. You may leave the king in my care now.
Hysing walked away.
- Djon the Woodsman: This will only lead to further delusion.
- Eivor: You will know at least he eats every day. And maybe, someday, the fog will lift.
- Djon the Woodsman: Forgive my ill will. I knew this would be a difficult end, but sometimes the weight bears down heavily.
- Eivor: There is courage and honor in what you do and the gods know it. Good luck to you.
Eivor left them with a remark.
- Eivor: Looks like England is united.
- Hysing the World-Wise: The Picts have been fine subjects. King Alfred is pleased.
- Djon the Woodsman: The peace holds. For now.
Hysing walked off mad.
- Eivor: It is a harsh choice, but sometimes you must put fire to a wound to heal it.
- Djon the Woodsman: Forgive my ill will. I knew this would be a difficult end, but sometimes the weight bears down heavily.
- Eivor: There is courage and honor in what you do and the gods know it. Good luck to you.
Eivor left them with a remark.
- Eivor: Still at war with England?
- Djon the Woodsman: That tough old fox is still hanging on. I admit I am impressed.
Eivor saw Hysing off.
- Hysing the World-Wise: Tell your Pictish master that you will never take England!
- Eivor: I would not think of it!
Outcome[]
Eivor decided on how to treat Hysing's illness in the end.
