==Biography==
In the 870s, Alva led a raid in [[Reading|Readingum]]. After telling [[Einar (Viking)|Einar]] to take their haul back to their longship, she infiltrated [[Readingum Abbey]], where she found a monk who offered barrels of their beer in exchange for their safety, which Alva accepted.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>

Returning to [[Ravensthorpe]], Alva was welcomed back by [[Eivor Varinsdottir]]. Eivor said that [[Basim Ibn Ishaq]] had been insisting that she locate more of the [[Hidden Ones]]' [[Assassin bureau|bureaus]] in [[England]], and that she had found a lead in [[London]] but that Alva should take a look first. The clan then celebrated the successful raid with a feast, with Alva leaving for London the next morning.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>

She infiltrated the bureau, finding a metal-grated doorway between two lit torches under a large stylized "A" and having a blade jabbed into her back by a figure that told her to not move and asked her who she was. Alva explained that Basim had asked her clan to find him, to which the Hidden One responded by removing their blade from her back and allowing her to turn around. The Hidden One said that if Alva was looking for [[Vejovis' dagger|a specific blade]] like theirs, it was likely to be in the hands of [[Stowe (Order of the Ancients)|The Connection]], a member of the [[Order of the Ancients]] who acted as a go-between, collecting branches of the Order as well as the blades of the Hidden Ones killed.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>

Alva asked how she could find The Connection, and the Hidden One brough her to a book filled room with two other Hidden Ones and a wooden board containing information on members of the Order, including the Connection. Alva's thinking was interrupted by a large armoured man behind another gate, who mocked the Hidden Ones and ordered six guards with a battering ram to come in. The two groups fought, but Alva and the Hidden Ones prevailed. The Hidden Ones decided to leave the bureau and remove their most valuable documents, telling Alva the location of one diagram she would find of use and asking her to lock up before leaving.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>

While making sure the bureau would be innacessible to other, Alva discovered a chamber of [[Isu]] design, with a circular podium from which a hologram of Vejovis appeared and addressed an "[[Joey|Spectator]]", saying that they should locate the blade by finding his [[Sage]] and that with the message transmitted, they should destroy the chamber. Alva touched a panel nearby, starting a countdown before running out of the bureau, falling to the ground outside due to rumbling caused by the technology collapsing the passage behind her.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>

Alva found a page planted inside her jacket, it being a letter from The Connection describing a meeting in London, as well as a time and a place: below a clocktower at a market stand. Alva positioned herself on a ledge, hoping to take the opportunity to assassinate him. She saw him move within range underneath her, dropped down swinging her bearded axe and chopping his head clean off.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>

===Legacy===
In the 2020s, [[Joey]] relived Alva's memories, experiencing a conversation between her and The Connection in a [[Memory Corridor]], where The Connection said he was glad Alva was his killer, said that his death was only a setback for the Order and revealed the location of the blade.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>
