At Makkalet, Sonja and her band aid a young barbarian adventurer named Conan, who is fleeing Turanian troops toward Makkalet's gates. But the two are like oil and water, and Conan is frustrated in his efforts to gain her romantic attentions. Soon afterward she saves him a second time - this time from Mikhal Oglu, called "The Vulture" - and enables teh Cimmerian to send the assassin's severed head as a gift to prince Yezdigerd. A few days later, Conan accompanies Sonja to accomplish what turns out to be the real mission for which she was sent to Makkalet: recovering a fabulous serpent tiara that King Ghannif had magnamimously included in the dowry of his daughter Melissandra. Conan rescues Sonja when the tiara sprouts a guardian serpent-demon; in return she knocks him on the head and flees the city with the booty.
Returning to Pah-Dishah, she discovers that the corpulent Ghannif wishes to reward her sterling service by adding her to his harem. Enraged, she slays the lustful monarch and his albino bodyguard and flees.
Combat
She fights with skill and grace by this point, and, although a level lower, is Conan's equal with the sword.
