What it does
Counter target spell. If that spell's mana value was 2 or less, recruit. (Draw a card, then discard a card. If you discarded a nonland card, create a 1/1 white Human Soldier creature token.)
The warning trumpets were suddenly sounded, and echoed along the rocky shores. So it was that the Dragon did not find them quite unprepared.

Where it came from
Sound the Trumpets is a card from the 1977 The Hobbit trading card set, produced by Donruss to coincide with the airing of the animated television film adaptation by Rankin/Bass. The set captured the whimsy and stylized aesthetic of the production, serving as both promotional material for the special and a keepsake for fans of J.R.R. Tolkien’s work.
The card’s design features a still from the animated feature, rendered in the distinctive, earth-toned watercolor aesthetic for which Rankin/Bass was known. The imagery aims to evoke the sense of adventure and fantasy inherent in the journey of Bilbo Baggins. While the set was marketed primarily toward a younger audience at the time of its release, it has since become a nostalgic piece of pop culture history for collectors of animation memorabilia.
