==Overview==
The device takes the form of a smooth, black octohedron , burning cold to the touch, that fits in a [[human]] hand. The {{PAGENAME}} emits device oscillates slightly, resonating with a song in the purest [[binharic]] cant from the being trapped inside. This song can only able to be heard by those in the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] who have not undergone the [[Rite of Pure Thought]] and , or still retain a functioning right hemisphere of their brain.{{Fn|1}}
The C'Tan shard can be released from the device using a complicated series of movements, cantrips, code in an alien language. Reversing this release protocol will immediately return the C'tan shard back into the device upon completing the sequence.{{Fn|1}}
