Khesesh Em Sesh Em Eeneb

Khesesh Em Sesh Em Eeneb is a ruined Isu vault located beneath the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.

History

Around 48 BCE, the ruins were visited by the Medjay Bayek of Siwa while tracking a member of the Order of the Ancients, Khaliset. There, Khaliset conducted rituals in the vault, convinced that with the ancient symbols and silica-powered pedestal, she would be able to resurrect her deceased daughter, Eshe.

While investigating the ruins to try and understand Khaliset's motives, Bayek activated the vault's pedestal and witnessed a recording made by the Khufu messenger. Dated ninety-five days after the Great Catastrophe, the message displayed was intended for Layla Hassan, who would relive Bayek's genetic memories in 2017.

In 46 BCE, the priest Menkhtu took possession his former master's mask and claimed to be the Ibis Reborn. Reorganizing the straggling remnants of the Egyptian Order of the Ancients into the Sect of the Ibis Reborn, he intended to enter the ruins and obtain the ancient power within to conquer Egypt. However, lacking knowledge on the pedestal's activation process, his plans collapsed. Transferring his anger to the Hidden Ones who had hunted the Sect hoping to stop him, Menkhtu attacked them in a frenzied rage, but was fatally wounded and posthumously unmasked as an impostor.

Behind the scenes

Khesesh Em Sesh Em Eeneb is a romanised version of the Egyptian "(xasaX) (m) (sax) (m) (inb)", roughly meaning, "Stars and Uraeus and the Palace Wall".
