'''Chelchis | '''Chelchis''' was an [[Eliksni]] [[Kell]] of the [[House of Stone]] who lived on [[Riis]] in the years leading up to the [[Whirlwind]]. She is remembered by modern Eliksni for her bravery in standing against the Hive and the Black Fleet during the Whirlwind, holding the attackers at bay so that her people could escape Riis. | ||

As Kell of the House of Stone, Chelchis played a major role in organizing the defense of Riis and its cities against inside and outside threats. She was regarded as a living legend by the Slayer apprentice [[Irrha]], who had heard many stories about her.<ref name="Judgement"/> | As Kell of the House of Stone, Chelchis played a major role in organizing the defense of Riis and its cities against inside and outside threats.

At some point shortly before the Whirlwind, Chelchis met with Irrha and his mentor [[Kiiraskes]], who had been appointed to dispatch an aggressive predatory animal that was troubling a local Baron of the [[House of Rain]], [[Haaksis]]. Upon their return after completing their task, Kiiraskes left Irrha under Chelchis' care while the Slayer Baron left to report their findings. As Chelchis stood watch over Irrha, she eventually began singing quietly to herself; Irrha found her song beautiful, but also sad, and upon being queried by Chelchis he told her so. Chelchis responded that the song was not meant to be sad, but was instead a ''"song for star-sailors headed out into the dark between worlds"''. She reassured Irrha that wherever the Eliksni went, so too did the Light.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/10/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Revenant]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Garden-Way|The Garden-Way]]: [[Lore:The Garden-Way# | At some point shortly before the Whirlwind, Chelchis met with Irrha and his mentor [[Kiiraskes]], who had been appointed to dispatch an aggressive predatory animal that was troubling a local Baron of the [[House of Rain]], [[Haaksis]].

Sometime after Chelchis met with Kiiraskes and Irrha, the Witness and its Black Fleet came to Riis, along with Hive forces led by [[Oryx, the Taken King]]. Available records seem to indicate that Chelchis bravely stood against the attackers, even facing up to Oryx himself; however, she appears to have been ultimately overpowered by the Taken King and was either killed or Taken. In her last moments, she called out in search of the Traveler, but found it had already fled Riis and left her and her people behind | Sometime after Chelchis met with Kiiraskes and Irrha, the Witness and its Black Fleet came to Riis, along with Hive forces led by [[Oryx, the Taken King]].
