Conan #8/1997
In "Raktavashis dotter!", Conan crosses paths with the mysterious Sabbatha and her daughter Rosina, both eerily bound to ancient magical relics—the diamond of the legendary queen Nitocris and the living Crystal Conclave figurines. As the sorcerers Stornella and Valvaxier seize the artifacts in a bid to reshape destiny, Conan and Rosina must fight to survive when the statues themselves awaken with a will of their own. Written by Roy Thomas and Henrik Hårdråde, with art by Alfredo Alcala and E. R. Cruz, and a cover by Vince Evans, this 1997 tale blends myth, magic, and peril in a story rooted in the dark legacy of Stygia.
In "Raktavashis dotter!", Conan follows the trail of two Aquilonian mercenaries, Ormon and Pembrok, to a distant city where he reunites with Nafertari—once a slave, now revered as the divine Zabibi, daughter of the god Raktavashi. As forces converge on her—mercenaries seeking a reward, a priest eager to rid himself of her, and a mysterious mountain spirit—Conan finds himself caught in a storm of faith, fate, and fury.
