    I have to ask, Outside of The Phoenix on the Sword, was Conan's status as a king ever talked about or mentioned in any of the other stories.

      The Hour of the Dragon is the longest Conan story. He is king of Aquilonia in that one too.

      He's king in Phoenix of the sword, the scarlet citadel and the hour of the dragon (the only novel length Conan story and longest Conan story) he's king in only these 3 stories. He's also mentioned in the unfinished wolves of the border but don't think he's king but close to it. This is all there is. In red nails he mentions he may be king foreshadowing his future as king. But overall hes only king for only 3 stories but they are all great

      Hi there. Yes, to answer your question. As you may already know, Conan’s kingship is something that’s progressive. It is a fantasy of his, to be a king someday, of some place. Sorry, I can’t be specific about which stories say what. I need to Google the order to which each story was written and start from the beginning. Cheers.

    A superb Conan story, very untypical, but I think one of the best, maybe even my favorite. The vocal performance is also excellent, though I wish the narrator had bothered to learn the correct pronunciation of "Cimmerian."

    So just out of interest, which of the Gods of Howard's Conan Universe (and feel free to throw in Lovecraft's as well since they were peers and throw in Game of Thrones while you're at it and Warhammer too why don't cha!) would you think is "real" or actually worship or follow and believe in? The Gods seem to be inspired by "real life" Gods as well as "real" aspects of life. Even Lovecraft's Gods seem analogous to some real deities and conceptsm, some of which are taken quite seriously today. In the films, it seems a variant if Dagon might have taken on the name Dagoth, similar to how Biblical deity names of "enemy gods" would take on "oth" like Ashtaroth for example.

      @@St1cKnGoJuGgAlO Awesome, great choice, so do you like Ishtar?
      I like what you wrote, as some other food for thought which may not necessarily be true or accurate though:
      Since Azazel came to be sort of associated with the goat due to the sacrifices left for Azazel which may have been connected to the Earth and under the Earth element, Lillith, or Lilitu (or whatever) was associated with the creatures of the night, typically given bird-like iconography, but was at times considered a kind of "mother of monsters" character, that may have also then been conflated with the other malign entities, such as the Shedim (sometimes considered the "offspring" of Lillith or Azazel variously) and the Se'irim "he-goat" "Leviticus 17:7 admonishes Israel to keep from sacrificing to the Se'irim.[11] Texts from the Dead Sea Scrolls describe the nether regions as full of Se'irim.[12]"
      Sometimes, images of Ishtar are taken and mixed or mixed up with images of Lillin or Lillith and Ishtar (or the male Ashtar, Ashtaroth, Astar, or Attar) were demonized by some Semitic people, while already having sometimes scary aspects linked to themselves.
      Artemis of Ephesus is another good candidate as well as Hecate.
      Besides these, there is also Tiamat and Echidna, both linked more closely to the serpentine than the caprine ("goat-like").
      The strongest negative association with the goat, based on stories about Azazel most-likely and after a long time, comes from ideas about Satan and "Baphomet" (the Occitan word for Mahomet or Muhammed).
      What is really interesting or mystical though is that I was recently looking up things from Marvel and Shub-Niggurath came up because of Shuma Gorath and also N'astirh, two sort of demonic entities from Marvel comics. The name Shuma Gorath is suspected to be inspired potentially by Shub-Niggurath, and in the Marvel designs can take any form but often manifests some portion of its power into forms or entities which it controls which appear like an eye with tentacles (and in the Capcom designs, can be quite cute in my opinion). N'astirh on the other hand has a horse-like head which might also resemble that of a goat at times, sometimes in much later art that of a lion, though their overall appearance might be that of some sort of dragon as well.
      Since these names are made up, it is sometimes imagined that they had a basis in some references that might come to mind when they are read or uttered, for example the
      "Nigg" element might bring to mind blackness and night, the "rath" element might bring to mind wrath and also the "oth" and "roth" at the end of terms like Astaroth (which was the "oth" added to Astar or Ishtar). Here are some interesting clues:
      "Our name in plural, עשתרות (ashtarot), is used four times not as a name but as a regular word. It happens only in Deuteronomy and only in the phrase עשתרות צאנך (ashtarot so'nek), in which the second part means "your flock," particularly a flock of small animals such as sheep (but note that sheep-products - wool, milk, meat, even horns - formed the foundation of social life)."
      "It seems pretty safe to conclude that the original name where the Hebrew name Ashtoreth was drawn from, was either shoehorned into an already existing word meaning fertility, or else the existing name Ashtoreth was used as a word meaning fertility without actually referring to a pagan practice. In much the same way, we still speak of "the stars in the sky" without consciously referring to Astarte, Queen of Heaven, where the phrase came from."
      This is from a website called "Abarim Publications"
      As for the connection to the "woods" it was likely to reference artworks and stories about the Witches' Sabbath and Black Sabbath's in the woods and caves and mysterious places, where humans and demons commune and copulate and potentially even introduce more demonic and unholy creatures into the world, according to the stories and the ideas, which often involved cross-breeding, gaining familiar creatures, and the elements or acts necessary to create more witches and warlocks and villains of body-horror and transformative magic.
      Feel free to contact me at theartismagistra at the g sort of mail if you like discussing or reading about these sorts of things haha, it can be a lot of fun and creatively stimulating at the very least!

      @@St1cKnGoJuGgAlO The Wikipedia Articles for Akerbeltz and Akelarre may be of interest as well, but I don't know if Lovecraft was actually familiar with any of this Basque folklore rather than the general European folklore regarding Witches and the Sabbath, The Devil and Pan and stuff like that, plus Greek and Eastern mythological knowledge from the time.
      I wrote in some notes a few weeks ago: "I was looking up Shuma-Gorath, leading to Shub-Niggurath, leading to Sheol-Nugganoth (Yog-Sothoth, Bal-Sagoth, Yuggoth) where oth was weaved into names by Hebrew authors who were mixing in some kind of curse word or infamy and ban into the names of things, like how Asteroth ended up being spelled and pronounced that way."
      So "Sheol-Nugganoth" might be something to look up as well if you were interested, from "The Idle Days of Yann": by Lord Dunsany.
      The "Sheol" element would refer to the Underworld and the Land of the Dead, and in many ways "Sheol-Nugganoth" in being obscure or forgotten may be a kind of "dead God" like other people and things which are dead and lost, sort of like the God of the Obscure and Faded.
