Dark Horse Takes Us Back To Valhalla In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: The Hidden Codex
Dark Horse Books has once again brought the fascinating world of Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla to life with their latest graphic novel, Asassin’s Creed Valhalla: The Hidden Codex. In this gripping tale, written by the talented Mathieu Gabella and accompanied by the dynamic art of Paolo Traisci, readers will embark on a historical adventure alongside the protagonist, Edward.
As the story unfolds, Edward, a skilled scribe and reluctant monk, finds himself entangled in a series of puzzling events. After escaping a clan of Vikings who once held him captive, he returns to discover that his brother has mysteriously vanished. To further complicate matters, he stumbles upon cryptic documents adorned with enigmatic symbols that he inexplicably comprehends.
These writings bear a resemblance to those he encountered in the workshop of a secretive wise man within the Viking community—an individual associated with the clandestine order known as Those Unseen.
Eager to find answers and secure both his freedom and knowledge, Edward delves into the depths of the unknown. The trail leads him to the elusive order, offering him the possibility of unveiling the truth behind the hidden codex. However, time is of the essence as he races against it to rescue his beloved brother.
