The Black Stone the sigil works its way inside you and stays, you hear it and feel it. The stone brings death, terror, and despair.
Conan runs through the jungle and he finds a nightmare. Picts warriors attack Conan and the battle turns bloody. The battle goes off in a different direction as others across time are touched by the power of the sigil. Six others feel it as Conan does. What does this mean? How will these others fit into this mystery?
Conan does live in a dark time filled with evil. Here the sigil ties him to a great darkness that pulls at his soul.
What is going on needs to be explained better.
Conan is a hard man who lives a tough life and he fights to survive. He does not back down. Conan is a warrior which his actions attest to.
