An entreaty received from the hornsent grandam.

Summon a guardian spirit above the caster's head. The spirit never strays far from the caster, conjuring several apparitions before dissipating.

"Take vengeance upon Messmer and his lot.
They who betrayed us, aye, they who burned us...
Let them face in thy wrath their just deserts."

• Low damage overall, making it not that useful.
• Cannot be used simultaneously with Glintblade Phalanx, Carian Phalanx, Greatblade Phalanx, Skill: Glintblade Phalanx, or Unique Skill: Tremendous Phalanx , as they will override each other.

Trivia
