The Mad One has gathered his trusted eight to his secret hall.įemale: Remember the calculations. So, what do we get to know through these dialogues? Let’s have a look at all of them in what we believe to be the proper order in which we should listen to them: They do, in fact, also contain these dialogues by two supposedly unknown people, a male and a female, that date back to the Isu Era.Īs mentioned by Layla in the modern day of the game, the female voice is Aletheia while, as we get to know while playing the game, through the Jotunheim arc and even during the end of the game, the male voice is that of Loki, the creator of the Anomalies himself One of these anchor points, as we’ll see when we get to analyze the events that took place in Jotunheim, is the whole story surrounding Minerva, Juno and Jupiter from Assassin’s Creed II to Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag and possibly beyond, but all that will probably require a dedicated article as well, so before we get into that, we thought of starting fromĪnother anchor point, the hidden conversations during the Animus Anomalies in Valhalla.Īs you probably know by now, the Anomalies are not only interesting because of the Modern Day feeling they give to the player or the chunks of the final video they award when finishing them. While we’ll delve into the Mythological arcs of the game in later articles, we first need to know some of the established events that took place in the Isu era, some anchor points if you will, that will help us see through the mythological veil and have a pretty solid idea of the actual context that set the events in motion at the time. The only issue is, as we know by now, the events that happened in that time are not shown as is in Valhalla, but through the mythological veil nested inside Eivor’s perception. In order to understand the ending of Valhalla and why Loki / Basim did what he did, we need to understand his motivations and those of his mistress, Alethia, and those are pretty much rooted in the Isu era.

So, why are we starting from the hidden dialogues of the Anomalies? It’s easily explained. Thus, after quite some time not discussing the plot of the franchise on our channels we’re so happy we can finally go back to our analysis and so, as we usually say, sit back, relax and enjoy the ride… That starting point is none other than the Animus Anomalies or, more specifically, the hidden dialogues within them rather than the final video – we’ll have time for that at a later stage.

In fact, we actually planned not one, not two, but a series of in-depth articles that will explain in detail all the aspects and context that are needed to fully understand the game’s ending along with the several references to the lore and narrative established in the past games connected to it.īecause of that, we’re not going to start from the ending itself but from a specific starting point and from there we’re going to follow a logic and narrative path through several articles in order to gain all the elements and details needed to fully understand the ending of the game. This is not going to be your standard analysis of the ending though. Hello everyone and welcome to our in-depth analysis dedicated to the game’s ending and the context surrounding it.
