Just a guess about Kash Patel's use of "see you in Valhalla" in respect to Kirk [View all]

So far we know the shooter was an online gamer, which seems to be substantiated by the writings on the shells recovered. I am not a gamer but I know that a big time game for those into role playing games is Assassin's Creed Valhalla. So could Patel's mention of Valhalla be some kind of message to the alt-right? Or maybe Patel is descended from Vikings? It is so weird to me that Patel would mention Valhalla that I think it is worth thinking about.
