Roland carries a huge warhorn carved from the tusk of a monster slain by his remote ancestor in the Dark Age of Bretonnia. This ancient horn was used by the Grail Companion, Duke Fredemund of Aquitaine. When blown, this horn emits a piercing cry and releases a mighty spell, and the skies become filled with all manner of birds, in memory of the great man. It drives driving away flying creatures as if scared by an awesome predator bigger and more ravenous than themselves!
