With this story we are entering the ending of the book of the Complete Chronicles of Conan. This is the first unfinished story of Howard's Conan.
It is an unfinished draft where the real main character is a young traveller called Amalric. He is crossing the desert along some Ghanatas warriors.
Amalric rescues Lissa young woman form Gazal, who is afraid of the unnamed Horror that could (and would!) come out his conquered town.
Conan appears at the end of the 20 pages of this draft, as a prisoner of Tombalku warriors and Amalric starts talking to him, ending the text in that cliffhanger.
It was finished by L. Sprage de Camp in Conan the Adventurer.

And the tough art of the inmortal Frazetta!!
Yes, we'll miss him.
A great loss this very year.
