That child looks like he has gotten himself into a tricky situation.

Basim and Hytham in ASSASSIN'S CREED: MIRAGE

When Basim said to Roshan “You let me struggle alone”, when Basim let his past define him entirely by fear of loneliness, when Basim was terrified of ending up alone because he experienced total loss in his earlier life. When Roshan said to Basim “I am the daughter of no one”, when Roshan denies her past to define herself as an individual with no bound, when Roshan ends up leaving Basim behind despite loving him so much she almost gets killed trying to prevent him from losing himself. When Hytham said “Everyone is worthy of our love” to Eivor, when Hytham defines his life entirely on the Hidden Ones' creed and on Basim's teaching after losing his mother, when Hytham is left behind by Basim even though he was like a son to him. Roshan going on her own, leaving the Hidden Ones. Basim going through the ages, leaving everyone. Hytham staying in Ravensthorpe with a new family, never getting closure.

When Roshan taught Basim the leap of faith, when Basim taught Hytham the leap of faith, when Hytham taught Eivor the leap of faith. Roshan's “embrace the fear”, Basim's “you simply need to have faith”, Hytham's “my faith proved stronger than my fear”. Do you get it.

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

I read your post that is about what if Basim names his eagle companion "little eagle" and I want this so much! 😭 I was going to reply to the post but saw that someone had dropped the name there and didn't want to accidentally make you see that so that's why I messages. I apologise if that's like a too private thing to do

Not to worry at all love <3 It was very thoughtful of you honestly, considering the game hadn’t come out yet at the time that I’d made the post! And you coming to my ask box gives me the perfect excuse to gush about things I’ve been holding in for a while now.

Spoilers ahead for anyone who hasn't played the game yet! For everyone else, please bear with my rambles.

While my desire for an Arabic variant of “little eagle” to be used has been debunked since release, I have to say that the canon name for Basim’s eagle is 20x better than anything I could've imagined for several reasons.

The most prominent is the direct correlation between Gilgamesh, the hero from the Mesopotamian mythos “The Epic of Gilgamesh”, and Basim. The very mythos that Enkidu derives from.

For those of you who don’t already know, the epic describes the relationship between Gilgamesh, the great powerful ruler of Uruk, and Enkidu, a male created by the gods to divert Gilgamesh from wreaking havoc in the world. 

Gilgamesh and Enkidu become comrades, friends, and probably lovers before Enkidu dies at the hands of fate. Prior to his death, Enkidu’s ability to humanize and soften Gilgamesh’s heart through friendship was what inevitably saved the people of Uruk from his tyranny. And, upon Enkidu’s death, Gilgamesh struggles with his grief so much that he starts to deny his own mortality and goes in search of everlasting life.

Basim’s story parallels the Epic of Gilgamesh so intimately that it’s uncanny.

As a street thief, Basim inflicts his “tyranny” over the people of Baghdad by assassinating the Caliph al-Mutawwakil in 861, which in turn marks the beginning of the extreme internal instability of Baghdad for 9 years.

Once partnered with Enkidu, Basim is seen as a more well-rounded and balanced person who recovers from what he inflicted on the people of Baghdad (in no small part thanks to his training with the Hidden Ones, but I digress).

Enkidu abandons Basim once he is fully merged with Loki, fully revoking him as his master as a changed man with ambitions to seek immortality.

Now, this might be a stretch, but allow me to be utterly self-indulgent through the bytham lens.

Originally, in the novel "The Golden City", Hytham was appointed to Basim's command by their Masters to spy on him and ensure that he did not stray from the ideologies and goals of the Hidden One's (not dissimilar to how the gods created Enkidu to reign back Gilgamesh's wrath).

As a result, Basim’s fate becomes so closely interwoven with Hytham’s that they become practically inseparable throughout their years working together. Wherever Basim went, Hytham dutifully stood right by his side, despite the implied dangers of his ulterior ambitions.

Hytham complicates Basim’s mission to find the Norsemen that would eventually lead him to Norway to grasp the immortality waiting for him in the ancient Isu structures hiding in the depths of Hordafylke. Whether Basim had wanted it or not, he canonically comes to care for Hytham so much more than he ever wanted to, and in turn, Hytham becomes "closer to him than anyone still living."

Basim is humanized once more and gains another Enkidu, a young eagle no less.

And it is only once Hytham sustains a debilitating injury in his battle against Kjotve and forced to abandon Basim's side, that Basim finally slips away and redoubles his efforts in search for immortality.

So yeah, plain and simple. I adore the name Enkidu for Basim’s eagle companion. It’s the gift that keeps on giving :)

Me, after Mirage, 6 feet deep into my delusion, thinking of ways we can get non-Isu Basim back:

#basim ibn ishaq #assassin's creed #ac mirage #I KNOW i know ubisoft doesn't see this as a split personality situation #and that basim just didn't have his full memories #BUT the non isu personality!! he's so different and i need him back 🥺 #eivor renounced odin at one point it's possible hear me out ubisoft 🤡🤡 #ac mirage spoilers #not really but just to be safe #text

Normally I'm a "canon compliant" kind of fan, but because I hate AC:Valhalla's lore so much, I have decided to be absolutely delulu™ about Mirage. Basim is fine. He defeated his djinn. He knows about Loki but Loki isn't A Thing for him. He's living a totally healthy and normal life as an Assassin and he pets all the cats in Baghdad. Yes he meets Eivor (and Altaïr and Kassandra) at some point but they are ✨best friends✨ and only fight about who pays for food. Enkidu still loves him; Roshan eventually comes back around. None of the convoluted nonsense from Valhalla happens and everyone lives as happily ever after as Assassins possibly can. This is my reality and all of you have to deal with it. 😤

"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]
