Alwin (Canterbury)

Alwin was the acolyte of the monk Quiescis who lived in Canterbury. Because Quiescis adopted a strict vow of silence, Alwin often served as his interpreter for his words said through .
In the 870s, Alwin and Quiescis encountered the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir during her time in the city. When asked to a flyting duel, Alwin accepted the challenged, acting as Quiescis's conduit for his words during the duel. The two eventually lost the challenge, with Eivor winning with her wager.Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Floating conversations: Flyting
