Due to this hilt , Valkyrie ’s steel has a connection toShang - Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings . Shang - Chigave audiences their first in - depth look at dragon in the MCU , even explaining how dragons arrived on Earth . In the MCU , dragons are mystical organism from other worlds , who travelled to Earth through interdimensional portals . Ta Lo , the ancient village with mystical creatures inShang - Chi , is only accessible through one of these portals and is home to a dragon hollo the Great Protector . While Valkyrie ’s original Dragonfang most likely did not come from Ta Lo , her motive for a new blade may send her searching for the concealed village inThor : Love and Thunder .
Although theGreat Protector is the most prominent dragonin the MCU , she probably was not the source of Valkyrie ’s original Dragonfang . Thor : Ragnarokintroduced dragons into the MCU for the first clock time with the Fire Dragon . After Thor ’s fight with Surtur in Muspelheim , the Fire Dragon broke free from his chains and endeavor to kill Thor . However , the Fire Dragon was decapitate when Skurge touch off the Bifrost Bridge to transport Thor . Since then , the canyon laughable miniseries , Eternals : The 500 Year War , has have another tartar sacrifice itself to help the Eternals defeat a Deviant . This indicates that there may be many flying lizard propagate across different realms in the MCU , and Asgardians would have had easier access to many of them than to the Great Protector to obtain teeth for Dragonfangs .
However , Avengers : Endgameestablished that thesurviving Asgardians now dwell on Earthin New Asgard with no agency to go to other realms . Since Valkyrie misplace her original Dragonfang inThor : Ragnarok , using it to trap Hela to the Rainbow Bridge , she may need a raw sword inThor : Love & Thunder . Stuck on Earth , the only elbow room Valkyrie could prevail a Draco ’s tooth for the hilt would be to travel to Ta Lo . Since the Great Protector already leave the citizen of Ta Lo scale for armour and arm , she may be willing to give Valkyrie a tooth . Although Valkrie could use a different type of sword , her only way to forge a new Dragonfang would be to seek the Great Protector ’s help , connectingThor : Love & ThunderandShang - Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings .
