Basim's son

The bio of Basim read as such, "Years later, he became a father, but his son was taken from him by a close friend." I remember this sequence from the game, when Eivor and Basim are talking near a campfire during their quest to rescue Sigurd, at which point Basim told her that his friend/mentor took his son from him. Are we sure that it wasn't Loki talking through him about Fenrir ? Maxattac (talk) 15:55, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Yes, the line likely was a reference to Fenrir and Odin, respectively. By the time Basim was an adult, Loki had taken over his mind, so the man is speaking from memory of thousands of years ago, as opposed to Basim having physically fathered a child. – Darman (talk) 16:00, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
