Last Flight of the Gyldan Sparrow
Last Flight of the Gyldan Sparrow 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 came across a group of villagers at Lunden 's docks.
Eivor came upon a conversation on the docks.
Eivor asking about the sunken treasure
Norse Woman: I heard the Gyldan Sparrow was carrying more 'n candies and spice from Aksum . He had a hefty necklace in there too.
Anglo-Saxon Man: Makes sense as to why The Compass would send the whole boat into the drink then. Bloody shame. Worth a pretty penny.
Eivor found a note left on a nearby crate.
Note
My boat, and all its priceless cargo, has met its end at the bottom of the river. If you recover any please contact—
She approached the group.
Eivor: This harbor houses sunken treasure?
Norse Woman: Ja, the current's too strong to pull the wreck out, so we're left to lament the loss. You interested?
Eivor: I am a strong swimmer. I fear no cold, current, or drengr of the deep.
Norse Woman: Then by all means, we can scrape together a reward fit for the cargo's rescue.
Eivor discovering the shipwreck
Eivor swam towards the wreck.
Eivor: That must be the corpse of the Gyldan Sparrow that merchant mentioned.
She looted two chests from it and returned to the surface.
Eivor: One chest with treasure, another with this bottled message. I wonder if it has preserved its message.
Eivor read the message.
Waterlogged Note
Compass keeps taking too healthy a share of my wares. Watch the bastard try to take my coin when they're stuffed inside a cow 's stomach.
Eivor: I found a message in a bottle. It looks like the treasure was eaten by fish.
Eivor reflected on the contents of the nearby shipwreck she had previously looted.
Eivor: One chest with treasure, another with this bottled message. I wonder if it has preserved its message.
She approached the woman who spoke for the group again.
Norse Woman: A message in a bottle? Ah, wise. Hid a necklace in a cow's stomach. Guess you'll have to go fishing for the rest of the treasure.
Eivor returned to the water's edge and started fishing. She hooked a fish.
Eivor: Come now, you little scaled cowards. Pull on my line.
Eivor pulled in a large pollock and retrieved the treasure from it.
Eivor: Slippery bastards. Must be the necklace. That is a lot of silver . Why shouldn't I keep it?
Eivor approached the group again.
Eivor: I have the treasure you seek.
Norse Woman: Do you? Please, give it here, then.
Eivor handing the necklace to the woman
Eivor: Found this necklace in the guts of a fish. I could not get rid of the smell.
Norse Woman: Even reeking of fish, this is priceless. Many thanks!
Eivor: I risked my neck swimming into the drink, so the spoils are mine.
Eivor recovered the treasure from the shipwreck, caught a pollock, and retrieved a necklace from within the fish.
If Eivor kept the necklace, it converts from a quest item to a trinket and can be sold for 62 silver. Despite the woman's claims of a reward if it is returned, there does not seem to be one. As the xp reward is the same regardless of choice, the greatest profit lies in keeping the necklace.
Even after looting the ship and reading the bottle's message in the game's Inventory, it does not appear possible to loot the necklace from a caught fish until after speaking to the woman again. The drop is random, but it will frequently drop from the very first fish dredged from the river after that point. As with most fishing tasks in the game, it is also possible to "catch" the necessary fish by using arrows , if the fishing line has not yet been unlocked.
