- Eivor: I found such a story in a manuscript. Up in the tower.
- Arne: Then may it bring you more luck than it did us. Maybe you will even solve the serpent's mystery.

The Lighthouse Twins was a virtual representation of one of Eivor Varinsdottir's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description[edit | edit source]
Eivor decided to help two men in distress when she came across Dover Pharos.
Dialogue[edit | edit source]
Eivor overheard a conversation as she approached the lighthouse.
- Arne: Hog's golden bristles, Frode, how did I let you talk me into this?
- Frode: Stop clucking like a laying hen, I'm the one with the broken leg. At least grab Old Hisser's tale while you're up there!
- Arne: Something is hissing. Jörmungandr's fangs, are there snakes up here too?
- Frode: Alright, alright. Well, you'll have to get down somehow. Can you see a haystack or something?
- Arne: A haystack? Are you mad! From this height? That's certain death. No, my fate is sealed. I will just wait up here to die.
She approached the man laying on the floor of the lighthouse.
- Eivor: Someone is stuck?
- Frode: My brother. Chasing some foolish legend that if you see Old Hisser from above and catch his tail, he will grant you a wish.
- Eivor: And what of your leg?
- Frode: Likely sprained trying to climb up to rescue him. We are a sorry pair.
Eivor started on her way up the lighthouse.
Eivor killed a snake before climbing to where Arne was.
- Arne: You made it up! You truly are a brave one!
She killed another snake near Arne.
- Eivor: I'll help you down, but how is a big, strong Norse like yourself afraid of heights!
- Arne: And snakes! I don't know how I let my brother talk me into these schemes. I think I just give in to his endless goading. But I'm sick to the back teeth of him, "Climb up, Arne! Go in that cave of wolves, Arne! Eat that red mushroom!"
- Eivor: Siblings are a source of great joy, and equal misery. I too have a brother.
- Arne: Does yours put you in the maw of death every opportunity he gets?
- Eivor: Come, let's get you down. And perhaps you can tell him how you feel.
- Arne: Talk of my feelings? To my brother? I would rather let the snakes gnaw on my tender parts.
- Eivor: This way.
- Arne: It's too high to get down from here!
Eivor released a ladder with a shot from her bow.
- Eivor: There, the ladder. Watch your step.
The pair climbed down a level.
- Arne: Which way now?
- Eivor: This way.
Another snake impeded their path leading down.
- Arne: There! Another slithering devil waiting to get me!
Eivor killed the snake. The pair reached the ground floor of the lighthouse.
- Arne: Yes! I'm alive! Brother!
- Frode: Thank you, stranger. For bringing this waste of breath back to me.
- Eivor: You are welcome... but what is the story you spoke of? Old Hisser?
- Arne: A pretty legend. He who catches Old Hisser's tail will find their heart's wish granted.
- Arne: We have followed England's legends and found little but peril. It is time to hang up our well-worn boots.
- Frode: Farewell! May Odin litter your path with riches.
- Eivor: Goodbye. Keep each other safe, for a good brother is the truest treasure from the gods.
The brother left the lighthouse, with Arne helping Frode.
- Frode: Now see, you big lump? All that wailing, and it was as easy as a hop and a jump.
- Arne: Keep that up and I'll leave you here for the wolves. Ah no, look at your leg. Is it truly broken?
- Frode: No, sprained is all. But I'd like to see you get by without me. Couldn't even climb down a ladder without mewing like a newborn.
Outcome[edit | edit source]
Eivor killed the snakes and rescued Arne from the top of the tower.
