In Assassin's Creed Valhalla, which historical year does Eivor's settlement campaign in England begin?

The story behind the answer

Eivor's settlement campaign in England begins in 873 in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

Valhalla follows Eivor, a Viking from Norway who leads a clan to England and establishes a settlement during the Viking expansion. The English campaign is set in the ninth century and involves alliances with several Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, conflicts with the Order of the Ancients, and the construction of a new home for Eivor's people.

The year 793 is often associated with the Viking raid on Lindisfarne, while 865 marks the arrival of the Great Heathen Army in England. Neither is the game's stated starting year for Eivor's settlement campaign. The date 1066 belongs to the later Norman Conquest, long after the main historical period depicted in Valhalla.
