- "Where is the Great Machine? Where is the Great Machine?"
- — Chelchis, Kell of Stone
Chelchis, Kell of Stone was a Kell to the Fallen House of Stone who once "stood before the Maw". According to Fallen legend, Chelchis and the House of Stone held off the Hive in order for the other houses to escape Riis. The Fallen still revere Chelchis in their songs.[1][2] From artifact and weapon descriptions, it can be assumed that Chelchis was killed by Oryx, the Taken King himself and in his last moments, called out in vain for the Traveler, only to be crushed by the power of the Taken King.
Quotes
- "All is silent. Nothing answers me. The hunger comes."[3]
Trivia
- Chelchis is mentioned in the scout rifle Doom of Chelchis, a reward from the King's Fall raid.
- Chelchis was one of the many Eliksni leaders who fought in the catastrophic Whirlwind. It is implied that his sacrifice is the reason that the survivors of the Whirlwind were able to escape. He could have been Taken, as the "hunger"[3] and "standing before the Maw"[1] implies.
