(term) Hunter's Knife
One of the more distinct bodies of the Procession, often referred to as a "Guide". This one is so named because it has an elongated shape when viewed from Sinai, leading some to imagine it as a celestial knife hurtling through the heavens. The "Knife" rotates, so at times it is more easily visible than others. If it is end-on, it's hardly distinguishable. If it's parallel to the ground, it reflects enough light to be visible with the unaided eye.

When the "Knife" is most visible in the sky at night, it reflects enough light to subtly affect the available illumination, somewhat like a full moon would, but less impressive. Since this alignment is favorable to hunting at night, it tends to be associated with hunters, hence its identity as "Hunter's Knife".
