The River Severn (Welsh: Afon Hafren) is a river that crosses Wales and England. In the latter, it flows through Shropshire.
History
Vagn's scouts informed him that the river played a part in the legend of Saint George, leading to Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan searching for his legacy.[1] She eventually found his bracers and trousers inside fortifications along the river.[2] Inside the Northern Monastery, she also found a clue which allowed her to locate the River Dee in Wales.[3]
Behind the scenes
The River Severn is the longest river in the United Kingdom, flowing through the modern English counties of Shropshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. The city of Gloucester is located by the river.
The Severn is a navigable river introduced, as the Afon Hafren, in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, although only the northern English section is available in the base game. An expanded location was added through the River Raids update released on 17 February 2021.
While the very upper section of the base game's "River Afon" resembles that of the real Afon Hefren's lower section, due to it flowing by Gloucester, its southward course through Hampshire to the English Channel indicates that it is actually the River Avon.
