Were Bayek and Aya Buried Together?
Bayek of Siwa, the famous Assassin and protagonist of Assassin’s Creed: Origins, and Aya of Alexandria, his wife and assassin partner, had a powerful bond that spanned from their childhood to their greatest accomplishments. Throughout their journey, they faced numerous challenges together, including battles against pharaohs, gods, and even the gods of the afterlife. So, it is only natural to wonder whether these two esteemed Assassins were buried together.
Bayek and Aya’s Final Acts
As we know from the game’s storyline, Bayek and Aya went their separate ways following the events of Assassin’s Creed: Origins. According to the game’s script, Aya chose not to join Bayek and the Hidden Ones, despite their strong bond and joint victories. Aya elected to stay behind in Alex-andria and continue serving the gods. Bayek, on the other hand, dedicated his life to establishing the Hidden Ones’ Brotherhood.
Despite their departures, the game establishes that both Bayek and Aya maintained a mutual respect and love for one another, even in separation. It is likely, therefore, that they cared deeply about what would eventually become of their mortal vessels.
Where Was Aya Buried?
According to Assassin’s Creed: Origins’ lore and various fan sources, including an article from medium.com, Aya is buried in a shrine within the San Marco in Venice, Italy. This means that Bayek and his followers may have known and respected her final resting place, which would allow for potentially significant connections to be maintained even after her passing.
