The Savage Sword of Conan #82

In "The Demon in the Dark!", Conan finds himself once again hunted by the relentless Bor'aqh Sharaq, who survives the ruins of the Temple of the Twelve Eyes with a darker purpose. As Conan journeys with an elderly man and his daughter toward a remote sanctuary, they race against time to prevent the return of a long-buried god-demon—while Sharaq closes in, driven by vengeance and ancient malice.

In the sun-scorched city of Makkalet, Red Sonja and Conan clash in a bar brawl that ignites a wild, dangerous adventure. From splashing in a sacred fountain to scaling ancient temple walls, their reckless quest leads them to a stolen snake-tiara and a monstrous, magical serpent. As the dust settles, Sonja outwits Conan one final time and vanishes toward Pah-Disha, leaving behind only the echo of her legend.
