Rheel Neh'mu
Image Gallery

Rheel Neh'mu, also known by his alias, Puhray Zeh'lot, was a priest living with Tahrust and Beh'leeb Inmee, as well as Maya Fey. He was a victim in one of Phoenix Wright's cases.

Government-sanctioned criminal

In reality, Neh'mu was a government spy tasked with killing revolutionaries or getting them arrested, including the people that took him in: Tahrust and Beh'leeb Inmee. In his duties, he wore a Lady Kee'ra costume, causing rumors of her resurrection to protect the people of Khura'in from the Defiant Dragons, but in reality Neh'mu was a heartless killer who cared only about his orders.

Death

Main article: The Rite of Turnabout

On the day before the Purification Rite, he followed Beh'leeb into the rebel hideout in the Inner Sanctum. Realizing that she was a revolutionary, he tried to attack her, despite her being akin to family to him. However, Beh'leeb, in self-defense, knocked down a stone magatama, which pushed him into the bird statue, killing him.

Tahrust then took his body and froze it under a large pile of snow to trick the time of death, and then set him up in a praying position and filled the wound in his back with the ritual's knife, knowing that no one would disturb him in this state.

Personality

While described as a somewhat cordial and deeply religious person while alive, his true nature is someone cruel and out to kill or frame innocent people, knowing he has the protection of the law.

Name

  • His Japanese alias comes from the verb ogamu (拝む), which means "to worship" and mainichi (毎日), which means "every day." This fits his status as a monk, who would generally pray every day. His English alias more-or-less means the same thing.
  • His Japanese and English real name comes from honmyō (本名), which means "real name," and the phrase "real name," respectively, fitting how they are his real name.
  • His English alias may also be a reference to the word "zealot", meaning a fanatic who is implored to do immoral deeds by their belief in a cause, religion, or person. This is a reference to his role as an assassin of rebels, turning on the couple who trusted him the instant he realized they were insurrectionists against his government.
