Assassin’s Creed Valhalla may have been released nearly a year ago, but developer Ubisoft still has big plans for the game moving forward. After its first major DLC expansion, Wrath of the Druids, which saw Eivor travel to Ireland, The Siege of Paris is set to take them to Francia next month. Beyond that, we might even see them travel to the Isle of Skye in Scotland to meet with Kassandra, no less, a familiar face to anybody who has played Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.
That’s according to a passage of dialog exchanges between Eivor and a seer, which were discovered by well-known Assassin’s Creed leaker j0nothan. It appears to be lifted from the start of a main questline in which the seer explains to Eivor that Edyt and people from her settlement on Skye have been experiencing nightmarish dreams. The seer then suggests that Randvi may be involved because she saw a vision of what appeared to be her likeness while “asking the spirits for clarity and vision.”
So how is any of this related to Kassandra, you ask? Well, if you’ve ever compared Randi and Kassandra’s likeness then you’ll know that the two bear a striking resemblance to each other. More to the point, if you have finished Odyssey’s storyline then you will remember that after taking possession of the Staff of Immortality she herself became immortal. It is an element to the game’s storyline which is continued in Valhalla after Kassandra passed it on, linking the two games and opening the door to a possible return of its protagonist.
You can check out j0nothan‘s video below. It’s spoken in French, but the dialog exchanges he has discovered are in English. Do keep in mind that this is all leaked information and nothing has been confirmed by Ubisoft. While it seems unlikely a storyline of this magnitude, which would involve an entirely new sandbox, would be removed from Ubisoft’s plans, it’s always possible the developer has since decided not to include it and therefore should not be taken for granted.
