right hand and rule the world with him.

You will die in the great evil

that will come from his rebirth!

- We will control him.

- No one is able to control him!

His power and his evil are too great!

give us the girl or we'll take her!

Enough talk!

Back to the crypt!

Bombaata, get out!

Out! Let's get out of here!

Behind the dragon there's a tunnel.

It could be our only way out.

The jewel. Take the jewel.

Hurry, hurry.

That way.

Malak! Malak, come on!

Malak!

It's the leader. He's a wizard.

- He's forcing the mouth open.

- Well, stop him. Kill him or something.

- My dagger is gone. You kill him.

- Not me. It's bad luck to kill a wizard.

Wait. There is a better way

to take care of a wizard.

Well done, Akiro.

lnto the tunnel.

Don't stop. Hurry! Hurry!

Run! Run!

- Where are the others?

- They're coming. Don't worry. go!

- They've gone.

- Taken their horses.

Or been captured. Let's flee.

Wait.

Bombaata took her.

Taramis planned it from the beginning.

We get the horn, her guards will kill us,

and Bombaata takes the girl

and the horn back to her.

- And her promise to you?

- A lie.

- Where are we going?

- To Shadizar.

- What for?

- To stop Jehnna's sacrifice.

But it's her destiny. It can't be stopped.

- You don't have to come.

I will.

I will.

I won't!

I mean, what's in it for us?

What are we? Some charitable

institution? We're thieves!

go! I won't help!

Hey!

Hey, wait for me!

You know you can't do without me!

Wait, Conan, wait!

Do you have the treasure?

Bring it to me.

Reserves to guard the palace.

There must be hundreds of them

around it. We can't get in there.

Well, you can't say we didn't try.

- The front gate can't be the only way in.

- Oh, it isn't...

Malak?

At the bottom, behind the waterfall,

there's an entrance.

It used to be an exit. My cousin's sister's

brother dug his way out there,

when he was a prisoner in Shadizar.

Today is your birthday.

All of Shadizar is celebrating.

Drink.

To life. To Dagoth.

To Dagoth.

Oh, Dagoth, god of gods.

My cousin's sister's brother

never said anything about bars.

How do we get back up?

The bars were put up after

your sister's brother's cousin escaped!

Cousin's sister's brother. How many

times do I have to tell you that?

- You said your sister's brother's cousin!

- Who cares who it is?

What difference does it make?

At the first sign of life in our god,

the girl must be sacrificed.

Or, as the scrolls of Skelos say,

a catastrophe will befall us.

Oh, Dagoth, god of gods.

Power above all power.

Kill her!

Save the girl!

Kill her! Kill her! She must be sacrificed.

No!

get back!

Down the steps!

No!

Run!

His horn is his life! Tear out the horn!

Robert E. Howard

Robert Ervin Howard (January 22, 1906 – June 11, 1936) was an American author who wrote pulp fiction in a diverse range of genres. He is well known for his character Conan the Barbarian and is regarded as the father of the sword and sorcery subgenre. Howard was born and raised in Texas. He spent most of his life in the town of Cross Plains, with some time spent in nearby Brownwood. A bookish and intellectual child, he was also a fan of boxing and spent some time in his late teens bodybuilding, eventually taking up amateur boxing. From the age of nine he dreamed of becoming a writer of adventure fiction but did not have real success until he was 23. Thereafter, until his death by suicide at age 30, Howard's writings were published in a wide selection of magazines, journals, and newspapers, and he became proficient in several subgenres. His greatest success occurred after his death. Although a Conan novel was nearly published in 1934, Howard's stories were never collected during his lifetime. The main outlet for his stories was Weird Tales, where Howard created Conan the Barbarian. With Conan and his other heroes, Howard helped fashion the genre now known as sword and sorcery, spawning many imitators and giving him a large influence in the fantasy field. Howard remains a highly read author, with his best works still reprinted. Howard’s suicide and the circumstances surrounding it have led to speculation about his mental health. His mother had been ill with tuberculosis his entire life, and upon learning she had entered a coma from which she was not expected to wake, he walked out to his car and shot himself in the head. more…
