Eivor:You mean Hemming's famous fighting roosters?
Norse Warrior 1:Dragons with mighty claws! Save me from their wrath!
Eivor assisted the man with his roosters
Eivor killed the roosters and talked with the man.
Norse Warrior 1:Thank you, mighty Thor! You've saved my life.
Eivor:When you sober up, steer clear of roosters.

Norse Warrior 2:I didn't see them coming! I never looked down! I never saw them coming!

Norse Man 5:Not the voda... I love the voda...
Eivor found a woman nearby the burning house.
A woman asking Eivor for help
Norse Woman 2:Help! Fire! Save my voda! It burns!
Eivor spoke to the woman.
Eivor:What is this voda you speak of?
Norse Woman 2:A gift without price, fit for a jarl's lips! But hurry! It catches flame!
If Eivor spoke to her again, she continually begged for help.
Norse Woman 2:Please, retrieve my voda, I beg of you! 'Tis my funeral gift! The honor of my family at stake!
Eivor went inside the burning house.
Eivor extracted the voda and brought it to the woman.
Eivor:If this is your voda, I managed to save it from the licking flames.
Norse Woman 2:You dared Surtr's Heat! Yes! A most potent drink, distilled from grain by the Rus of Kiev. Dip your horn and have a drink.
The woman moved near her voda display.
Eivor:A bit of drink in the belly never hurt...
Eivor went to have a drink of voda.
Norse Woman 2:Watch yourself... the voda sneaks up on you quick.
Eivor drank a horn of voda and left to find the next issue.
Despite Eivor's efforts, the voda exploded in the flames.
Eivor:It was too late for your... your voda, as you say.
Norse Woman 2:Ah, balls! I dragged it all the way from Rus! It is back to water ale for me, I suppose.
Eivor:If you drink enough, ale is a fine fix to any problem.
Norse Woman:Very true, very true. Join me if you desire.
Eivor:A bit of drink in the belly never hurt...
Eivor drank a horn of ale and left to find the next issue.
Along her search, Eivor came across a mob of people outside a house.
Anglo-Saxon Man 1:Leave me be! I did nothing wrong!
Eivor:You should walk out of here on your own, before you cannot walk at all.
Anglo-Saxon Man 1:Yes, yes! I'll walk, I'll walk! Don't hurt me, please! There's a key there. If you open the door I... I will follow you out.
Eivor picked up the key from the floor.
Anglo-Saxon Man 1:You got the key... use it.
Eivor walked the man out and talked with the woman leading the mob.

Norse Woman 3:You'll pay for your wrongs, desecrator!
Eivor:Enough. Let him speak to explain himself.
Anglo-Saxon Man 1:I loved Hemming, I swear! I only want him to fly free in the Kingdom of God!
Norse Woman 3:So you drench his body with your filth-waters?
Eivor:Was it your Christian holy-water?
Anglo-Saxon Man 1:Of course! I anointed him in the name of the Lord.
Eivor:Never inflict your Christian mysteries on a dead Norseman.
Anglo-Saxon Man 1:But I only—
Eivor:These are your neighbors. Respect them. Learn their ways. And you will draw breath long into old age.
Eivor left as the mob advanced on him.
Anglo-Saxon Man 1:O, no...
Norse Woman 3:There you are, baptized as one of us.
Eivor took her leave as the mob beat up the man.
Eivor:Hemming was never one to weep over a bit of rain. Neither should you.
Norse Woman 3:He insulted our noble dead!
Eivor:Hemming would laugh at the very idea.
The woman thought on Eivor's words and became calmed, and the mob dispersed.
Eivor:Shut your mouths, both of you. Your antics have outlasted their welcome. Now go.
The mob dispered.
With the matter of the "baptism" resolved, Eivor took her leave.
Eivor:Some order seems to have been restored. Now to Trygve to let him know.
Eivor reporting her efforts to Trygve
Eivor went back to Hemthorpe's hall and talked with Trygve.
Eivor:I've calmed the guests as much as they can be in their grief.
Trygve:They mourn. It is to be expected. Still, thank you.
Eivor:And how do you feel, old friend?
Trygve:I mourn more deeply than most, I think.
Eivor:Hemming would be proud of what you have accomplished here. All you have done for him.
Trygve:I hope so.
Eivor:This ache will pass, Trygve. With time.
Trygve:Yes. It will.
Outcome
Eivor settled a dispute between a mob and a Christian man, rescued a pot of voda from a burning building and protected a man from attacking roosters.
Behind the scenes
The memory's quest markers may lead to a drunken man on a roof near the docks. He will have no dialogue but can be carried down from the roof, with a nondescript objective to place him on the ground to "complete" it, yet this event is not required at all to complete the memory. It is possible he was planned as a proper objective in the memory at some point before being cut from the final list of errands.
