second only to Thulsa Doom.

They say Thulsa Doom's

I'll see what's here. Look below.

Kill them!

Do you want to live forever?

All manner of pleasures

and diversions were indulged.

Wealth can be wonderful.

But you know, success can

test one's mettle...

...as surely as

the strongest adversary.

They were taken to the hall

of King Osric, the Usurper.

Once a powerful Northman

like my lord...

...but now old and sotted.

These are the thieves

you requested.

I thought there were three.

Our companion died in the gardens.

Lions ate him.

Lions ate him?

The lions ate him!

You know what you've done?

Rexor himself has come before me,

threatened me, the king.

What daring! What outrageousness!

What insolence! What arrogance!

I salute you.

Thulsa Doom. I've chafed for years

at this demi-god.

Snakes in my beautiful city.

To the west, Nemedia, Aquilonia.

To the south, Koth, Stygia.

Snakes! Everywhere these evil towers.

You alone have stood up to

their guards. And what are you?

Thieves!

You see this?

They call it the Fangs of the Serpent.

And this one was thrust

into a father's heart...

...by his very son.

And my own daughter has fallen

under this Thulsa Doom's spell.

Is there a dagger such as this

in her hand for me?

She follows him as a slave...

...seeking for the truth of her soul...

...as if I couldn't give it to her.

As we speak,

my daughter travels east...

...to Thulsa Doom and

his mountain of power.

She is to be his!

Steal my daughter back!

Take all you can carry.

There's more. There's much more.

Enough to become kings yourselves.

There comes a time, thief,

when the jewels cease to sparkle...

...when the gold loses its luster...

...when the throne room

becomes a prison...

...and all that is left is

a father's love for his child.

To hell with Thulsa Doom.

He's evil.

A sorcerer who can summon demons.

His followers' only purpose

is to die in his service.

Thousands of them.

This mountain of power where he lives

is said to be impregnable.

I have talked to Subotai

and he agrees.

Let's take what we have

while we live.

I have never had so much as now.

All my life l've been alone.

Many times I've faced my death

with no one to know.

I would look into tents

of others in the dark...

...and l would see figures

holding each other.

But I always passed by.

You and I, we have warmth.

That's so hard to find in this world.

Please. Let someone else pass by

in the night.

Let's take the world by the throat,

and get what we desire.

The children of Doom.

Doom's children.

They told my lord the way

to the mountain of power.

They told him to throw down his sword

and return to the earth.

Ha!

Time enough for the earth
