Taken 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 met with Rollo in Colchester to start their plan to "kidnap" Estrid.
Dialogue
Eivor found Rollo and spoke with him.
- Eivor: How are your people, Rollo? Recovered and ready for what tonight holds?
- Rollo: Gerhild's treachery was a blow. Few were surprised it came to that, only that her dark ways took such a brutal turn. Put that aside. We're ready now. What would you have of us?
- Eivor: Wait for my signal. When I approach Estrid, that is your time.
- Rollo: I am your axe, Eivor.
- Eivor: Unleash your war dogs. Set things afire. Bring panic. Act like the barbarians they think us to be.
- Rollo: We'll stick their hearts with needles of fear!
- Eivor: Night will fall soon. Then is our moment to strike.
Eivor and Rollo waited until night came.
- Anglo-Saxon Woman 1: They used to sacrifice John Barleycorn. So that his seed might fall on his fertile land and grow the grain anew!
- Anglo-Saxon Man 1: I don't care for that pagan pomp. There is just one God now, and He gives us everything we need. In this life and the next.
- Rollo: This is what we do to Saxon god-slaves! We pillage! Pillage and plunder!
Eivor went to kidnap Estrid first.
- Eivor: Stand down, you Saxon dogs! The Lady of Essexe is ours!
- Norse Warrior 1: We'll eat your livers and drink your marrow! Saxon dregs! Odin owns you all! Cower before your masters!
- Estrid: I am ready when the time comes.
- Rollo: Take their ale and their women, we will feast like kings tonight!
Eivor grabbed Estrid.
- Estrid: I'm being kidnapped! Kidnapped! Guards! Guards!
- Eivor: You're coming with me!
- Estrid: O! O! Desist, you foul Dane! Guards! O, woe unto me! Put me down!
- Eivor: Odin's beard! You wouldn't fool a child with that howling.
- Estrid: Unhand me, fiend! Unhand me, you filthy Dane! Birstan, my love! My love!
After getting out Colcestre, Eivor and Estrid travelled to the destination.
- Estrid: We are safe enough to walk I think. Aren't we?
- Eivor: Who assigned those guards to you?
- Estrid: Yes, you noticed as well? That was Thegn Eadred, he insisted. He does worry for me so.
- Estrid: O, what a thrill! My heart is racing!
- Eivor: Be glad it still beats at all. Your screaming drew half the guards in Colcestre down upon us.
- Estrid: I wanted to give a good performance. My father always said I was quite the actor.
- Eivor: I won't deny your enthusiasm.
- Estrid: Did you not have even a little fun?
- Eivor: To steal away a princess, it did give a thrill.
- Estrid: A woman fights bravely against her abductors. Yet what will they do with me now? Is my virtue safe with you?
- Eivor: It's not in danger if that's what you mean.
- Estrid: Come now, Eivor ... you can stand against Aelfred's brutes, but you shudder at a maiden's gentle teasing?
Eivor and Estrid arrived at Wulfaswic and then time passed with Estrid near a lit pyre.
- Estrid: It is done. And all that stands between me and my home now is a foaming ribbon of surf and silt.
Rollo joined the conversation.
- Eivor: You did well, Rollo. You and your people. Are you ready to sail?
- Rollo: Loki's hissing son churns the waters between our coasts. We'll need time to rest as we wait for fairer weather.
- Eivor: Have a care, then. Aelfred's soldiers will be looking for Estrid, even if Birstan's will not.
- Rollo: Now's not the time for such worries, Eivor! Tonight we celebrate! Let's get you some mead!
Rollo left to start the celebration.
- Estrid: Birstan will meet you northeast of Colcestre tomorrow. You have earned all my husband promised, and more. Come find me, if you like. Away from these reveling Danes.
- Lork: Thor's thunderous hammer! That was like the great days, where I stood sword to sword with your father, Rollo!
- Gerhild: Those Saxon milk breads. They never saw us coming!
- Rollo: Yes! A ruse worthy of the trickster Loki. Their Idunn stolen by us mere mortals!
Eivor finished the kidnapping.
- Eivor: I should find Birstan. No doubt, he's hunting again.
Outcome
Eivor helped Estrid to plan her escape to Francia by "kidnapping" her with the help of Rollo.
