One Last Sleepless Night was a virtual representation of one of Eivor Varinsdottir's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan in 2020 through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Eivor and Kassandra celebrated their victory at the longhouse in Kiltaraglen.
With the nightmares abated, Eivor made her way back to Kiltaraglen, where the villagers were holding a party.
Eivor and Edyt made preparations to return to Ravensthorpe, but Eivor would eventually return to conclude her remaining business.
In Kiltaraglen, Eivor approached Kassandra, who stood near the longhouse.
Eivor moved towards the building and Kassandra began to follow before halting her steps.
Kassandra scoffed at her own nervousness.

The pair entered the building, finding a merry celebration. A drunk man approached them and began dancing with Kassandra, before Eivor pulled him away from her.
Eivor patted Kassandra on the back as they went further into the party.
The two warriors began a drinking contest. After the contest, Eivor and Kassandra sat at a nearby table.
Both Kassandra and Eivor sat down at a table nearby. A server tended to them.

Eivor chuckled at the word Kassandra used.
Kassandra laughed in response.

A loud voice interrupted her.
The pair left the table.
A loud man shouted at the bride.
Eivor and Kassandra confronted the ex-lover.
Kassandra laughed.

Eivor and Kassandra fought with the ex-lover and his friends, knocking them out.
The pair approached the bride and groom.

She turned to Kassandra.
Eivor spread her arms wide.

Eivor turned and walked to the longhouse's fire pit with Kassandra following.
Eivor and Kassandra stood on opposite ends of the fire pit as the bride and groom sat down. The groom motioned to begin as Kassandra cleared her throat.
The groom nodded approvingly.
More people gathered around the women.
The bride cast her gaze downward.
Kassandra continued to the next chapter of their story.
The groom looked to his wife while the wedding guest stood behind them raising his hand to his head.
Eivor grabbed a mug on a nearby table and raised it in a toast.
The story was completed and the competition finished.
The entire audience cheered and clapped.
The hall lay empty behind them as the groom and the bride stood up.
Walking back to their seats away from the firepit, Kassandra chuckled as the party slowly wound down.
Eivor playfully leaned in close to Kassandra's personal space.
Kassandra huffed and shoved Eivor back and then looked about the room.

Kassandra stuck out an arm, which Eivor clapsed and shook.
Eivor winked and smiled as they broke the handshake. Eivor went to get one last mug of mead and saw a familiar face among the guests.

Eivor shook her head.
Eivor met Kassandra's gaze, nodding at one another, before the Spartan pulled up her hood and left the longhouse. The next day, Eivor woke up in a pigsty.
Eivor and Kassandra celebrated their victory together before parting ways as friends.
