In all, some twenty such knives are known to exist. Several are suspected to be forgeries of a later time, and at least three of them may have been made some five hundred years after the fall of Nergal, when a faction of apostates made their aborted attempt to re-establish the dark empire (See Cotitas, `Famous People I Have Eaten’).
A modern reconstruction based upon a detailed description by the enchantress, the Lady Grynwalt in her `Memoirs’. This knife is probably a commemorative knife made expressly for the occasion of the coronation of the empress with the stolen Nimbus Selenium, the so-called `Crown of Luna’. The enchantress herself was present at this moment, when the empress of Nergal sought to coronate herself with this crown.
