The Riddle Game #29 Can't Post

The answer to last week's riddle was the Void. Congratulations to Eruwestial37 and Sara for answering correctly!

Here is today's riddle:

To battle I ride though I fear we won't win,
I'm great in girth yet still mighty,
Alas I was separated from my kin,
And the red serpent devoured me.




If you are going to make a guess, please remember not to place it in the subject line or the game may be spoiled for others.

A little apart the Rangers sat, silent, in an ordered company, armed with spear and bow and sword. They were clad in cloaks of dark grey, and their hoods were cast now over helm and head....There was no gleam of stone or gold, nor any fair thing in all their gear and harness: nor did their riders bear any badge or token, save only that each cloak was pinned upon the left shoulder by a brooch of silver shaped like a rayed star.
