In the “The Battle of the Barbarians”, Conan and Belit searching for the missing page from the Book of Skelos being kept in the Temple of a Thousand Gods run afoul with Red Sonja. Red Sonja, under cover of darkness, grabs the missing page and almost tramples Conan and Belit as she rides out of Messantia. Conan promising Belit that he’ll track down Sonja and the missing page. While in pursuit, Conan and Belit are stopped by a rockslide, courtesy of Karanthes’s magic. Sonja arrives at the temple of Ibis and hands over the missing page, asking for her payment. Before paying her, the priest points out a chamber of skulls, where the bones of former priests are kept. He warns her that anyone disturbing the chamber will meet a fearsome guardian. Since Sonja has no interest in the bones, the priest then proceeds to pay her from a treasure chest where the jewels are kept. The all of a sudden, Conan bursts in through the ceiling, demanding the missing page. And that’s it. Red Sonja totally loses it, draws her sword, and fights Conan the Barbarian. Because Conan is the stronger and more skilled swordsman, but Red Sonja fights dirty (well, dirtier). Each passes up a chance to deliver a killing blow to the other and the fight eventually finds its way into the chamber of skulls, where they proceed to desecrate the remains of a hundred priests. Unexpectedly they both discover that the guardian of the chamber of skulls is a giant snake. Since Conan and Red Sonja practically had their first date fighting a giant snake, they immediately forget their fight with each other and team up to make short work of it. At this point, Sonja decides the jewel isn’t worth all the fighting and decides to split the reward with Conan instead. Then at that very moment, a giant bat with a human head break into the temple of Ibis. We’re told that the face belongs to a priest of Set and that the conclusion to this story will be in Conan the Barbarian 68.

Cover by: Gil Kane & Pablo Marcos

In “Of Once and Future Kings!”, the story begins with Conan and Red Sonja failing to stop the half-man/half-bat from grabbing the page and flying away. So, they go in pursuit and run into Belit, who threatening to kill Red Sonja before all three join forces to catch the monster, retrieve the missing page, and hopefully split a reward three ways. They discover that the creature has fled to a fort in the middle of the wasteland that they’re all certain was not there earlier. Approaching the fort, they’re taken prisoner by none other than Kull, yet another Robert E. Howard creation. It seems that Kull (and his entire fort, complete with army) was summoned from the distant past by the priest of Set just to distract Sonja, Conan, and Belit. It works. Conan and Kull get into a swordfight that neither man wins and, eventually, Conan sends Kull back to his own time by shooting the priest with an arrow. Unfortunately, in the battle, the missing page catches fire and burns to nothing. So, the three of them return to the Karanthes, who tries to cut them a break by offering another job. If they could travel to Stygia and retrieve the rest of the Book of Skelos from the City of Sorcerers … Red Sonja, Conan and Belit decline having had enough adventure. Red Sonja rides off and Conan and Belit go on their separate way.
