Removing incorrect info about triton combatants(and changing log to prove it), adding clarifying note about when 435 horn happens

New page

'''Triton's Horn''' is a [[creature maneuver]] performed by [[triton combatant]]s and [[spectral triton defender]]s. The horn comes in the form of '''a silver-spined dextral conch shell''', which may result in a [[sheer fear]]-like attack similar to [[enormous rift crawler]]s, or the casting of one of three spells. Each of these effects will attack everyone and everything non-triton in the room.

===Fear attack===
;Failure in defending
May result in running or remaining in the room.

You bolt west!<br>
[Ruined Temple, Third Floor]<br>
Large splinters of wood cover the cracked floor originating from a pair of tables, which are now nothing more than crushed legs underneath the weight of a toppled column. An armless statue watches from the remains of a niche, its head barely peeking out of the rubble. You also see a siren.<br>
