The Savage Sword of Conan #8

In a tale of cursed immortality and desperate longing, Ranephi—eternally bound to life by ancient gods—seeks death at the hands of a barbarian. Lured to his castle, he waits for the moment his fate will finally end, but not all who wield steel are meant to deliver it.

Conan wakes aboard a slave ship, newly shanghaied, but his strength and cunning soon ignite a rebellion among the galley slaves. With the crew now under his command, he sets sail south, chasing a fleeing Stygian galley—his path marked by blood, steel, and the promise of vengeance.
