Plot – Conan's tribe knows the secret to forge steel swords used by its warriors. When some men on horseback attack his village, no one survives but few children and Conan himself. They are taken away and put to work as slaves in their big millstone. Over the years, only Conan survives to that cruel way of life: now he has become a ruthless giant with the sole purpose to take revenge of his parents' death. Through various adventures, Conan together with Valeria and Sabotai enters King Osric's palace, who entrusted him the task to bring back his daughter, kidnapped by Thulsa Doom, the powerful leader of a fanatical sect. Conan then recognizes in Thulsa Doom the murderer of his parents too, but his strength is not yet equal to his powers. Valeria and Sabotai will save him and help him to take revenge on the evil wizard and save Osric's daughter.
