Synopsis

Fleeing from the Picts, Conan comes across a cave filled with treasures – and a terrible demon! Nearby, Zingarian nobleman Valenso has settled with his family up north to escape his past. Rival pirate captains, Strombanni and Zarono, land on the shores of Valensos domain, seeking the lost treasure of Tranicos. Valenso is not interested, but when he learns that the Stygian magician Thoth-Amon has been sighted nearby, he panics and declares he will do anything to board a ship. They are joined by Conan, who now is the only one who knows the location of the treasure.

Synopsis

Conan leads the rival pirate captains Strombanni and Zarono to the treasure of Tranicos, hoping that the guardian demon will kill them. Conan's plan fails, and they all form another uneasy alliance to battle the Picts and make it back to Valenso's fort. The fort is eventually overrun by the Picts and Valenso atones for his transgressions against Thoth-Amon when he is killed by a demon. Conan saves Valenso's niece and her servant girl and is rescued by a delegation of Aquilonian noblemen who ask him to help overthrow their mad king. The ever ambitious Conan agrees.
