Comments: Elric of Melnibone is approached by a woman Shaarilla of Myyrrhn. Elric wants to find the Dead God’s Book and this woman knows where it is. As the issue progresses this book seems to have been forgotten about. Elric gives the impression he is high-born, he seems to have an air about him.
Elric is a fierce warrior in battle. His sword drinks blood. After the battle, there is a scene with Shaarilla in it and it does not make total sense. It is hard to figure out what exactly happened to or with Shaarilla.
Elric and the human Moonglum he picked up head to Dhakos. At sea a Man Of War ship with Pan Tangiens aboard attacks the ship Elric is on. Elric knows how they will attack and he knows how best to fight them.
Elric has a very special sword one that is cursed. Elric listens to it as the sword drinks dep of blood and souls.
Elric is a solitary man yet he does enjoy company. The problem those around him seem to die.
Elric is a sad man who is unhappy with the life he has been given. He does go on and he is a kind and caring man as he is willing to help others at risk to himself.
This is a brooding gloomy sword and sorcery adventure. Elric has lost so much now all he wants is peace.
