Comments: The group of adventurers number six, Conan of Cimmeria, Brissa, Dark Agnes De Chatillon, Solomon Kane, John Conrad, and John Kirwan are a hardy bunch. They have been pulled from different times and they face a great evil. Then there were five. A beast from the past and Conan’s actions lead to one less in the group.
The Black Stone Beast is called and comes. Dark Agnes faces the beast alone with a sword and gun. This beast is a lumbering huge monstrosity. The setting around our adventurers is a depressing one in the forest. It sets an atmosphere of dread.
The band of four now continues onward until they are but three. Fighting a dark evil threat takes its toll on these warriors. They face odds that are overwhelming.
This is a dark tale of death and conflict. These tough warriors continue facing odds they know are against them. As their companions die one by one they feel the weight of their situation pressing down on them. The survivors are feeling the hopelessness of their situation.
