1-1 Heart Of the Elephant (2 hours)
Conan and his true love, Tamira are captured by the wizard, Yara,
who traps her soul in a mirror and forces Conan to fight as a
gladiator. Conan, along with Vulkar and Zzeben, escape with the
other fighters. While Conan goes after Yara, the others set out
to raise an army to defeat Cimmeria's cruel rler, the all-powerful
sorcerer, Hissah Zul.
Alone, Conan
fights a mummy for control of the legendary Sword of Atlantis.
Victorious, he has a vision in which the great god Crem tells
Conan he is destined to become King of Cimmeria and must kill
Hissah Zul.
When Conan
finds Yara, the wizard will only free Tamira's soul if Conan steals
a fabulous diamond, the Heart of the Elephant, located in a tower
guarded by a fabulous creature, Yag-Kosha. Outside the tower Conan
and his new friend Otli are joined by Karella, a bandit queen
who wants the emerald for herself. Conan and Karella break into
the tower and are faced by Spydra,a half-woman, half soider. Karella
runs, leaving Conan to kill the spider and confront Yag-Kosha.
The creature hates Yara and begs Conan to help him get his revenge.
In exchange for the emerald, Conan must promise to kill Yag-Kosha
and squeeze the blood from his heart onto the emerald. The blood
casts a spell on the jewel that, when given to Yara, sucks the
wizard into the emerald, trapping him forever.
Meanwhile,
Hissah Zul's General Goroth has mortally wounded Tamira, who dies
in Conan's arms. A grieving Conan rejoins Vulkar, ZZeben and Otli.
With the army they've raised, they all march to Hissah Zul's castle
and defeats his soldiers. Trapped, Hissah Zul magically makes
himself and his castle vanish.
Undaunted,
Conan and his pals set off to fulfill the ancient prophecy of
Atlantis; Conan will kill Hissah Zul with the sword of Atlantis
and become King of Cimmeria.
