Njord's Lament was a virtual representation of one of Eivor Varinsdottir's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description[]
Havi came across a drunken man sitting on an island.
Dialogue[]
Havi heard Njord's drunken yelling from afar.
- Njord: Skadi ... O Skadi ... Why are you so cold? O, Skadi! I curse the day ... you were seized with lust ... for my perfect legs... Go back to your f-frigid mountains! The sea is my mistress!
Havi found a letter on a rock near the man.
Unopened Letter
- Father,
If you insist on playing host to your new wife and family, try to contain their activities to your home in Noatun. Given the rise of Jotun aggression, Skadi and her kin will not be treated kindly beyond your borders. We need your strength guarding our shores, not drowning your cares on one of your island retreats.
Remember, you are a Lord of the Vanir, not a thrall to the giants.
Freyja
Havi approached Njord and spoke to him.
- Havi: Njord, your drunken laments ripple through Asgard. What has brought you to this state?
- Njord: I have ... a beautiful ... beach home ... in Noatun! The most ... perfect place in all Asgard! But is it enough to make Skadi happy? No! She wants us to freeze up in the ... f-fucking mountains!
- Havi: She is Jotun. You should have known this before you married her.
- Njord: She chose me! Can I help it that I have such beautiful feet?
- Havi: You cannot keep this up. Your wailing will summon a sea storm.
- Njord: I care not. I have mead enough to keep me warm till ... till ... till Skadi and her clan return to their f-frigid homeland.
- Havi: Maybe they will, but not before plundering the vast riches from your beautiful home.
- Njord: I had not thought of that! By Ymir's balls, I must return to shore! Bring me a boat! I still have my pride. I refuse to swim like a ... fish ... fisher ... fisherman! Bring me a boat!
Havi got on a boat, taking the oar, and Njord climbed in.
- Njord: Skadi ... Skadi ... her heart is as cold as her ... mountain peaks.
- Havi: Having a Jotun for a wife cannot be easy.
- Njord: The only time she ever really smiled ... was when that ... goat ... nearly ripped Loki's balls off! I remember thinking ... that one is cruel ... and magnificent! But the pleasure was not worth the pain. And now ... I have her ... whole ... whole cursed clan to deal with.
- Havi: I know a rune that will dull the edges of their weapons.
- Njord: Only if it will ... blunt her tongue.
They reached the mainland.
- Havi: I hope you find peace, noble Njord. A bad match can be troublesome, but not worse than having nothing to love.
- Njord: My home at Noatun will bring me pleasure enough. But what about you, Wily One? What do you love?
- Havi: Knowledge, Sea King, and the pursuit of it. Untangling mysteries, uncovering lore ... that is what feeds me.
- Njord: Then from what I kn-know of the world and all the ... realms... you will never go hungry. Good luck to you.
Outcome[]
Havi brought Njörðr to shore.
