The Horn of Herrock is a black, twisted horn that is banded with gold. It is named after Herrock Kenning, the founder of House Kenning of Kayce.[1]

History

Herrock the Whoreson used the horn as a signal for the whores of Kayce to open a postern gate, allowing his men to take the town from the ironborn for House Lannister.[2]

Recent Events
