#and the frye twins are jewish to me and i'm right all the time

gd i wish so badly mirage had more directly shown us basim's faith in the context of being a hidden one. like we see clearly in bits and pieces that he is a practicing muslim. i want to see how the brotherhood and islam interact, how islam influences the brotherhood, how they uplift each other and how they conflict.
#we couldnt have gotten one scene of him praying...#i think it's so fascinating how assassins with faith#whatever that is#have to negotiate the two tenets together#like i think its really cool in origins how bayek and aya's actions#they know they are damning themselves so to speak with their work#but they choose the brotherhood and its direct action over their own eternities#its a even bigger oath when you believe that you are condemning yourself in an afterlife you know#its a theme we see in lots of the assassins like they know their work is deeply spiritually taxing#ezio says again and again their work is not easy. they say again and again that it shouldnt be#and there's room to explore how justice plays a role in it too#this is why religious assassins >>>>>#ac says altair is an atheist and i say shhhhh#ezio is a believer in an atheist way. its so funny#and the frye twins are jewish to me and i'm right all the time
