Hey Paul, 

makes sense to me. We know that Hu is the Sword, and Hela-Makt is "Fighting 
Heler," or "Heler the Fighter," (he's called "Fighting Storm," but I assume 
that the Hela/Heler thing is not a coincidence and that so then presumably 
Hu-Makt is "Sword Fighter," or "The Fighting Sword." I wonder if the same 
root appears in the name of the Makla Mann subcult of Humakt.
