Title:
Conan the Barbarian
Synopsis:
“Revelation in the Mists”
Writer: James C. Owsley
Artists: Val Semeiks and Geof Isherwood
The elder gods awake because of Solaise and Sedrick now being united. Conan and Kaleb continue to fight as the Devourer decides to bring both of them to the river in the Forest of Eternal Verities. He creates a portal and lures Solaise and Sedrick. Conan and Kaleb follow.
[Red Sonja Is back at the camp and learns of Conan going through the portal, and though she is weak from her attack by Bahkt, xhe states she must come to the aid of her friend. Anneka says it would be good to have a strong sword arm and offers her a sword from one of her fallen comrades, but Red SonJa says that such a sword would no longer be good since she no longer has the power given to her by her goddess. She states she had that power as long as she was not bested by a man in battle.]
Back at the river all truth is revealed at it reveals the truth about Kaleb, and how he was from Asgaard, and he was so angry at his holy order that he made a deal with the Council of Seven. He would steal the Eye of Namut which allowed them to capture the child of an elder god. Kaleb got a bottomless bag of gold. Yet he was too guilty about what he did and destroyed the eye. For punishment the elder child was imprisoned in the body of Solaise. The girl would never age and Kaleb was granted powers and immortality to watch over her.
The Devourer reveals himself and Kaleb knocks out Conan. The Devourer now has control over both Solaise and Sedrick. He takes away the power from Kaleb who reverts to an old man. The elder gods turn the staff of the elder gods into a sword. The Devourer with Solaise and Sedrick goes off to get power over creation. [At this point the friends of Conan come to the aid of the elderly Kaleb --, to be continued Conan Annual 12]
The final issue before the big 200th does a great job of setting up the final big confrontation. We finally get why Solaise has these powers. Conan is mostly a spectator in this issue. I’m sure that will change. They also will continue in the annual before the 200th issue. So, we are getting two big double size issue in a row.
