Bound to Fate

Bound to Fate 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.
==Description==
Eivor spoke to Valka after returning from a dream about Jötunheimr, about unfinished business in dreams of Asgard.
==Dialogue==
Eivor drank the potion to return to Asgard in her dreams and finishing reliving Odin's memories. After reliving the final memory where Odin saw a vision of Ragnarök, Eivor woke up and Valka approached her.
*Valka: Eivor, you have awakened. With more to share I hope.
*Eivor: I returned to Asgard.
*Valka: And what did you see?
(If "I bound the Great Wolf." is chosen.)
*Eivor: I bound the wolf Fenrir, Loki's son, with an unbreakable cord. The beast was enraged by my actions. We fought and I prevailed, but I could not kill the beast.
*Valka: You visit lore and legend. Things I would never have imagined to be real. Parables, yet here you live them as memories.
*Eivor: Every moment there was as tactile and as vital as you and I seated in this hut.
*Valka: This is wonderful. Was there more?
(If "I betrayed Týr." is chosen.)
*Eivor: There was a... a betrayal.
Valka's face expressed curiosity.
*Eivor: I betrayed my friend Týr. I stood by as the great wolf mauled him, tearing his arm off at the joint. I could have said something to prevent it. Given him a warning. But I did nothing.
*Valka: How did it feel?
*Eivor: I was unmoved by his pain. Not hateful, but I did not regret my indifference. A swig of poison that drinks like wine.
*Valka: Selfishness unmeasured often feels this way. What else did you see?
(If "I saw Ragnarök begin." is chosen.]
*Eivor: I witnessed a final vision from the Nornir. The coming of Ragnarök. All was fire and ash, a chaos like a foul wind from the depths of Ginnungagap. But we were ready for the coming storm. Eight of us, we drank the mead, then stood and marched to our doom. That was the end of the Nornir's prophecy.
*Valka: How curious... Was there more?
(If "That is all." is chosen.)
*Eivor: I can make sense of no more.
*Valka: I see. The thrust of these visions seem clear to me. As in your first reverie, a fear of betrayal hangs upon you. Odin has seen fit to gift you with his infinite knowledge, and the treasure of his experience. Perhaps his tale is a warning. The indifference he felt is a great pity. See that you do not follow this same road. To do so would risk a loneliness, a personal exile, worse than death.
*Eivor: I understand. Or... I hope I do. Thank you, Valka.
Eivor then exited the hut and returned to Ravensthorpe.
