While the upcoming Siege of Paris DLC is only a couple days away, Assassin's Creed Valhalla's first major DLC still has a lot of ground for players to cover. Many may have beaten the main story of Wrath of the Druids and moved on, but it seems they may have missed a few Easter eggs. There were a few clear nods to games like AC Origins, AC Odyssey, and AC Chronicles: Russia in WotD, but the best thus far discovered for AC Rogue was a nod toward The Morrigan (Shay's ship).

Notably though, the Morrigan Trials were more Ireland than they were AC Rogue and were a relatively loose connection overall. But given that it was the first time an Assassin's Creed game had gone to Ireland proper, a substantial Shay Patrick Cormac Easter egg seemed unavoidable. While it didn't seem to exist at first, a solid Assassin's Creed Valhalla WotD Easter Egg for Shay has now been discovered.

The fine folks at AccessTheAnimus have a thing for finding and cracking languages in the franchise. Indeed, it was AccessTheAnimus that first decoded Assassin's Creed's Isu language, and now those skills have been applied in Wrath of the Druids. AccessTheAnimus has decoded an in-game letter which was completely written in Old Irish, with it detailing the King of Dublin Barid's origins and his family's backstory. The entire exploration of this story is interesting, which can be seen below, but there's one big name that stands out in the letter: a woman whose name changed to "Sjae Korpmaka."

"Sjae Korpmaka" is highlighted within the text, meaning it was intended to be spotted, and reads aloud as "Sjay Cor-p-macka." The P is rather softly spoken in AccessTheAnimus's translation, and even if pronounced harder, the similarities between this name and Shay Cormac are clear. As it stands, it makes sense if this is the name "Shay Cormac" but from a region and language that occurred roughly 900 years before Assassin's Creed Rogue. AccessTheAnimus is quick to point out that, as intentional as this Easter egg is, it doesn't mean that Shay Cormac is related to the woman.

While it may be a play on names, it's still a direct and intentional Easter egg, and that may be exactly what many fans wanted to see. Now, notably, The Siege of Paris is right around the corner, and like AC Rogue/Shay Cormac with Wrath of the Druids, it has the potential to have an Easter egg for AC Unity/Arno Dorian. It remains to be seen, of course, but the discovery of this Easter egg bodes well for the next DLC to have something similar.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
