 ## Combined effect
 
-When raised, the horn will allow you to hear the voice of ghosts
-that are present, within Voice range.
+When raised (held up), the horn will allow all present to hear the
+voice of any ghosts that are present, within Voice range.
+The horn relays the speech of the ghosts in Hermetic Latin.
+
+The ghosts are not compelled in any way, but most will
+typically choose to reply, especially when questioned about their
+demise and their haunting.  You do not need to Penetrate the target's
+magic resistance.
+
+The effect lasts until the next sunset or sunrise,
+and can be restarted by raising the horn again.
+
+There is no way to mute the horn's magical effect;
+we will achieve that with a muffle.
