Answer:

an army

Explanation:

The text above states that the "host" made a horrible noise and had a strong step that raised a lot of dust. This gives us the impression that the "host" is not a single person, but a large number of people, a crowd, which can indicate that this word refers to an army. Which makes perfect sense, since the word "host" used to be used to refer to an army.
