- At the last moment of his life, Roland blew the horn in hopes that the emperor, Charlemagne, will see what happened to his man and avenge them. Roland blew the oliphant so hard, his temples burst and dies a glorious martyr's death.
- When Charlemagne and his army arrived in the battlefield, all that is left are dead bodies of his men. The pagans have fled, and the Franks chased them to river Ebro, where they all died drowning. The Franks learned of Ganelon's betrayal and gave him the most painful death.
