The Banshee 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 came across a grieving man talking to himself and approached him.
Dialogue
Eivor overheard a man talking to himself.
- Grieving Man: Your skin was pale as midnight mist. Hair threaded with dew. Eyes glassy, limpid, accusing. Still so beautiful, so pure. Please, my love, you must forgive me. I cannot sleep, I cannot eat.
Eivor approached the man.
- Eivor: Who do you speak to? There is no one here.
- Grieving Man: We are together now, wife. You will never leave my side. Whispering in my ear like a moth's wings.
Eivor heard an odd noise.
- Eivor: Where is that wailing coming from? It is as if the walls are crying in anguish.
She took out a bow and aimed at a wooden barrier beneath an arch.
- Eivor: This man is haunted by some terrible deed.
She loosed the arrow, and the barrier broke.
- Grieving Man: You! You blew upon the threads and they severed. She is gone, dust and bones, dust and bones.
He attacked Eivor.
- Eivor: You have done some mischief here. I can smell the guilt with the rotting flesh.
- Grieving Man: No, no! What have you done? Her sobs, her screams. I can no longer hear her call to me!
Eivor felled her opponent and found a note on his body.
- Mad Ramblings
I can hear you scratching in the walls, wife. You won't give me a moment's peace. Scratching, scratching, screeching, wailing. Calling me a murderer. I loved you, but then I heard plotting with the sparrows. All night. Under the moon. Plotting. Plotting. To steal my money. To confuse my mind. You made me kill you. I am sorry.
We are forever beloved, even in death.
- Eivor: He murdered his love? Little wonder he is crazed with guilt.
Outcome
Eivor killed the murderer after she broke the wall causing the wind to stop howling.
Trivia
It is also possible to complete the mystery by stealing the note from the man thus leaving him alive.
