So what? Heil is not always “nazi”
The greeting “Heil” goes back to the Latin “Salve”, which translated means something like “Hello
Its not much different from the english “Hail” as in “Hail to you”
As a german I have to state that Heil doesn’t always mean it’s the Nazi Salut.
Heil is still just ‘Hail’ and there are still things like ‘Weidmannsheil’ (the way rich and/or noble Hunters greet eachother for Hunting-Events) that are used in certain cultural situations.
In this Medival setting it is just a greeting like any other. Alternatively they could have used ‘Gottes Gruß’ but that wouldn’t work in a non-Christian setting.
