Some tools in this game are quite rare that it is quite a surprise to encounter them. The frost horn is an example.

So the hero encounters this horn. Now a horn is almost certainly a tooled horn, but there is some chance that it might be a horn of plenty. Because food is rare in this game, the hero should check whether this horn makes a noise or produces food. Apply horn.

In which direction? [yuhjklbn]

That is strange. Well perhaps the hero simply applied the wrong item, or maybe we need to choose which way to blast the sound or dump the food ration. So the hero picks a direction.

The bolt of ice exits the horn, bounces off a nearby wall, and strikes the hero.

YASD.

DYWYPI? Gee, it is a frost horn.
