Mekest (メケスト Mekesuto?) is an almost 3 meter long iron rod-shaped Treasure Tool possessed by the Flame Haze "Mobilizer of Ceremonial Equipment" Khamsin Nbh'w.

Background[]

Mekest could be used as a simple blunt weapon, but its true form was a gigantic "whip" composed of multiple objects such as rocks and rubble tied together by Flames, with the iron rod as the "handle". Possibly good at transmitting Unrestricted Spells and Unrestricted Spell Insignias, it was also used for Qadesh's Blood Seal's markings during Tuning.

Mekest is a weapon mainly used when Khamsin is equipped with the "Mobilizer of Ceremonial Equipment"'s battle form Rubble Giant constructed using the Unrestricted Spells Qadesh's Blood Seal and Qadesh's Heart Chamber, but it can also be used in his normal form. Several techniques involving Mekest could be used, such as Ra's Throwing Stone, an attack where the mass at the tip of the whip is thrown and accelerated with Flames, and Set's Wheel, where Qadesh's Blood Pulse links to Mekest from Qadesh's Blood Seals laid out in the surrounding area.

As Khamsin did not have Mekest with him when he died in battle, it is thought that it was swallowed up and lost along with Jettatura in the simultaneous annihilation of the Kisan no Taiken after Professor Dantalion was expulsed to the Rift Between Both Worlds.

Trivia[]

  • Mekest is likely a reference to the boat Ra uses to cross the underworld at night in ancient Egyptian mythology, the Mesektet.
