Assassin's Creed Vigilance
Serey Sayavong (born Kasikor Srae). A peasant-turned-warrior of Chinese-Khmer descent, embodying the "Hidden One" who rises from the mud of Chenla to the gold of the Khmer Empire. While Bayek was a protector (Medjay) and Eivor was a conqueror (Wolf-Kissed), Sayavong represents the Philosopher-Warrior. His evolution into a "heroic god-like figure with no human errors" with "strict discipline, fast-paced and no-nonsense Hidden One suggests he has been influenced by the Devaraja (God-King) cult of the era such as Vishnu or Shiva, perhaps using that status as a "social stealth" disguise to operate in high society after Serey loses his "human" spontaneity. To be "never wrong" is a heavy burden; it suggests he has moved past personal emotion to become a pure instrument of the Creed’s will. Jayavarman II’s rise to power was absolute; if the Hidden Ones helped him to ensure stability against the Order, they may have inadvertently helped create a different kind of "Order" through the Khmer monarchy by establishing a Bureau in the Tonlé Sap region or near Mahendraparvata (Mount Kulen) would make Sayavong a pioneer, connecting the Indian branches of the Brotherhood to the Far East which resists the Order of the Ancients, as he hides in plain sight among the elite of Jayavarman II’s court, using the "Social Stealth" the Hidden Ones are known for. Serey represents the Mentor Archetype.
