Kish

A kish is a weapon worn disguised as an armband. Jewel of Broome wears a golden kish.

Shadows of the Master
The gold armband was one of the first things Britta noticed when she met Jewel. Mab asked Jewel not to carry weapons on her person while aboard the Star of Deltora, but Jewel continued to wear her kish because no one recognised it as a weapon.

The Towers of Illica
Madam Bell-Slink saw Jewel's solid gold kish as a sign of wealth and asked her to stay in Bell-Slink Tower. Jewel stated that she and her brothers each were given matching armbands on their fourteenth birthdays, according to family tradition.

The Hungry Isle
Jewel used her kish to defend herself from the flesh-eating plants on the Isle of Tier. Afterwards, she told Britta that she wished no one would speak of her kish or reveal its secret.
