the last chapter | FARE THEE WELL, YOUNG EAGLE.
how the fuck did basim afford his silly ass modern day outfit. did he fucking steal. imagine someone stealing a fit that disgusting while looking like a cosplayer. honestly that wouldnt be that weird but you know what i mean
he’s indeed the absolute madman
This is how I win. *loses*
everytime i see the back of nehal's outfit i cant help but see MD basim lmao
I really adore how empathetic and honest Basim is in mirage. It's such a stark contrast to the cunty manipulative man we see in valhalla. They are both manipulative and know what to say to get what they want but valhalla Basim is more gross and crusty about it while mirage Basim is much more genuine and polite about it. Valhalla Basim harasses people for fun. Mirage Basim is very nice and polite about bothering anyone and does Not do it for fun
“What you saw in the trailer is a well-known creature in the Middle East, a djinn,” she told me. “It’s something Basim sees regularly. It’s part of his journey. It’s something he’s going to discover and understand slowly as the player does. It’s key to his evolution as a character.” [source]
I loved Mirage, but part of me can't stop thinking about what we might have gotten if it had remained a DLC for Valhalla. OR if a DLC for Valhalla followed it.
I imagine when Hytham was called back to Alamut to report on Basim, he asked the one person who knows exactly what happened to his mentor to join him. Eivor - his friend.
Eivor, of course, accepts. She'll do anything Hytham asks.
They go, together, to Alamut.
While the two get tangled up in the politics of the Hidden Ones and solve whatever intrigue or mystery awaits them in the Arab world, they could have a chance to work together, side by side. While Hytham might be limited by his injuries, he's still a capable assassin, scholar, and warrior. I believe Eivor wholeheartedly respects his capabilities. She might even have to lean on him, let him take charge. It's a strange feeling, but not unwelcome. It might be nice for her to have someone to truly rely on, for once.
Imagine them getting a chance to walk in Basim's footsteps. Visiting the House of Wisdom in Baghdad, that Basim was so fond of. Seeing the great Mosque of Samarra, wondering what man his father was. Hytham would get a chance to handle his grief. Eivor might mourn the loss of a friend with him.
Imagine if Eivor could learn who Basim was. If she finally learnt of Loki. Would she forgive Basim his momentary lapse of madness? Would she understand it, knowing what Odin had done to Loki and Fenrir? This knowledge, would she share it with Hytham? Would he think her mad?
The friendship - or relationship - between Eivor and Hytham that could evolve, their connection deepen. What if this, these events, could be what made Eivor accept Hytham's offer to join the Hidden Ones? What if she, in part, inspired the changes Hytham would implement in the organisation?
It just frustrates me how much potential was lost here...
It frustrates me that they cut Eivor's journey short - and poorly, at that.
I just want to see more Hytham qwq
And I want Eivor and Hytham going to Alamut together. qwq
