Winifred was a virtual representation of one of Eivor Varinsdottir's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description[]
Eivor heard a boy getting stung by a bee and approached him to try and help.
Dialogue[]
Eivor came upon a child amid many beehives.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: Please, don't sting me. Because you will die and I will cry. Ow!
Ah! Ah... Get away! Don't come near! O!
Eivor approached him.
- Eivor: If the bees bother you, boy, maybe do not stand so close to their hive?
- Anglo-Saxon Child: But I need honey! Just a little. It's for my friend. It's all she likes to eat.
He turned her attention to the nearby hives.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: My friend loves honey. She has a very sweet tooth.
She's so gentle and kind, but if she doesn't get her honey I don't know what will happen.
I only want to scrobble a little. They have plenty to share.
I've tried poking it with a stick, but it riots them up something chronic.
Eivor went to one of the hives and procured a honeycomb without injuries.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: You got the honey? O, thank you! That looks delicious! Leave it on that rock and she'll be right along.
Eivor arranged the honey on the rock beside the tree.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: Come sit and wait with me. She'll be here soon.
Eivor sat on a log beside the boy.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: Winifred looked after me ever since Mother and Father died. She's my best friend. The other children tease me. Sometimes they throw stones to shoo me away and call me the grubby watcher in the woods. Winifred saved my life, I was curled up on the grass praying that God would take me too. And she scared the wolves away!
A huge bear came prancing out of the woods.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: There you are, Winifred! I got you honey!
Winifred ate a bit of honey while the boy walked up to her.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: Winifred, my bestest of bears! Any day spent with you is my favorite day. So, today is my new favorite day. This kind stranger got you some honey. What do we say? Thank you? All that honey must have given you quite a thirst.
- Eivor: Are you really all right out here on your own, little one?
- Anglo-Saxon Child: Silly! I'm not alone, with the very best of bears by my side. Goodbye, and thank you! Come on, Winifred. Shall we walk to the lake? Maybe we can splash in the reeds?
Eivor saw the pair go into the woods.
- Eivor: A strange fellowship. But then, friendship can often be found in unexpected places.
Walking near the river, she noticed the boy, the bear and a couple of other animals: a donkey and a rabbit.
- Anglo-Saxon Child: Here you all are! All my friends together! Isn't everything just perfect?
Outcome[]
Eivor gathered honey and fed the bear.
Behind the scenes[]
The fact that "Winifred" can be shortened to "Winnie" and that Eivor feeds the bear honey appear to be references to the character Winnie-the-Pooh from A. A. Milne's children's books. Winnie-the-Pooh, or "Pooh", is an anthropomorphic, honey-loving bear named after "Winnie", a stuffed bear owned by Milne's son Christopher, who had named the toy after a visit to the London Zoo, where he saw the Canadian female black bear Winnipeg, also called "Winnie", for short. Winnipeg had been bought from a hunter by Lt. Harry Colebourn while en route to England in World War I and named for his hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba.
