God of War Ragnarok contains a fanciful easter egg dedicated to Naughty Dog's The Last of Us 2.
Be warned, there are very light spoilers for God of War Ragnarok here!
There's mention of a "bearded, cruel father" which is surely none other than Joel, and a "surrogate daughter," which would obviously be Ellie. The poem highlights how the latter would never find "respite" from a world of slaughter and violence which, as veterans of Naughty Dog's series will know, is something Ellie very much struggles with.
It's actually an elegantly constructed and written poem, highlighting The Last of Us 2's stance on the bad accompanying the good, particularly in Joel and Ellie's relationship. It looks like players might want to keep an eye out for collectible poems in God of War Ragnarok, if this one is anything to go by.
