Ekdikesis Outpost was an abandoned fortification located in the Saqqara Nome in Egypt.[1]
History
In 48 BCE, the hideout served as a refuge for Namrut's group of rebels who were retreating from an attack on a nearby Ptolemaic encampment. Seeking medical aid, Namrut visited the nearby natron mine, Nitria, to look for the mine's chief healer, Nefertari. However, Nefertari was busy tending to the workers in the mine and thus sent her assistant, Suphia, and the Medjay, Bayek, to assist him.[2]
Accompanying him to the fort, Bayek helped Namrut to tend to the wounded, bringing them to the back of the fort so that Suphia could cover their body with natron to disinfect their wounds. However, unbeknowst to both Namrut and Bayek, Suphia lit up the brazier on one of the walls, leading Ptolemaic soldiers to attack the fort. Bayek and Namrut were able to repel the enemy attack, and the former confronted Suphia atop the walls. Upon the revelation of Suphia's identity as the mistress of Rudjek, she was killed by Namrut when she attempted to kill Bayek for the murder of her lover.[2]
