Workers' Lament was a virtual representation of one of Bayek's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.

Description[]

Bayek offers to help Nito, an overseer of Letopolis, by checking on her workers.

Dialogue[]

Bayek found a woman carrying a heavy load in the Temple of Horus.

  • Bayek: Here, let me help you with that.
  • Nito: What, you think me helpless?
  • Bayek: I am surprised to see a woman in your condition working so hard. The arrival of a child is a blessed event.
  • Nito: I am no delicate lily.
  • Bayek: Oh, are you in pain?
  • Nito: Bah, my little bean is just making herself known.
    My workers are so slow! I need to run over and check on them.
  • Bayek: Allow me, nebet.

Bayek went to look for the workers in the temple complex. He discovered one of the workers in the well, standing outside a tunnel entrance.

Bayek approaches the dry well.

  • Man: Baba! Ipuy! Can you hear me? Baba! Ipuy!
  • Ipuy: I am here!
  • Man: Are you okay?
  • Ipuy: My leg is hurt. I don't know how bad.
  • Man: And Baba?
  • Ipuy: I don't know. I can't see him. Get help!
  • Man: Please! Help! Quickly!

Bayek climbed down the well and approached the worker.

  • Bayek: What happened?
  • Man: The tunnel collapsed! Baba and Ipuy are trapped inside!
  • Bayek: How can I help?
  • Man: Are you strong enough to clear the way? See if you can bring them out. Please, neb, they are my brothers.
  • Bayek: Stay here. I will do what I can.

Bayek ventured into the well and discovered a door blocking the entrance to the tunnel.

  • Bayek: I'm going to have to force a way through.

He destroyed the wooden door and made his way into the tunnel. He found Ipuy laying on the floor.

ACO - Worker's Lament 03

Bayek carrying Ipuy out.

  • Bayek: Hey there, are you hurt?
  • Ipuy: Argh! I twisted my ankle! my brother Baba was working further in. The tunnel collapsed. I don't know if he's alive.
  • Bayek: I will get you out first, then find him.
  • Ipuy: Careful! I think I heard a hissing sound nearby!

Bayek carried Ipuy out of the tunnels to the worker outside the well.

  • Man: Ipuy! I will help him from here!
  • Ipuy: You need to go back and find Baba! hurry! He might be hurt, or worse!
  • Bayek: Take care of him. I will find your last brother.
  • Man: Thank you, neb!

Bayek returned to the tunnel. He passed through a small crack in the wall. He discovered snakes in the tunnels leading into a bigger chamber and killed them.

ACO - Worker's Lament 04

Snakes resting in the tunnel.

  • Bayek: Peace, Wadjet. Forgive me for killing your green ones. There is no other way through.

He discovered Baba sitting in a chair.

  • Bayek: Are you hurt?
  • Baba: No, I managed to squeeze in here just before it collapsed. I had no idea this was here. We were digging to reach the river...
  • Bayek: That place was probably part of the old temple... Do you need help getting out of here?
  • Baba: I am fine. I am going to meet with my brothers and take a break.
  • Bayek: What is this place?

Bayek discovered a hidden entrance and exited the tunnels back to the temple. He returned to Nito.

ACO - Worker's Lament 06

Bayek reporting back to Nito.

  • Bayek: Chief Nito, the well tunnel partially collapsed, but I was able to help the workers.
  • Nito: My little bean and I are so fortunate you passed by when you did, Medjay. May the gods bless you a thousand times for your efforts!
  • Bayek: Take care of yourself. May the gods bless your little one.

Outcome[]

Bayek was able to Nito look for her workers. He managed to help them escape danger from the collapsed tunnels beneath the temple.
