Conan is hired by the beautiful twins Sabrina and Saroya to rob Wazir Hassan Hassad Khan who lives on an isolated island in the Vilayet Sea. Before they have a chance to leave, Conan is apprehended by the Zamboulan city guard; as a Zuagir warchief, he has a substantial price on his head. The twins rescue him, but ultimately they betray him to Hassan Hassad Khan, who wants to hunt a human. Conan kills him, and on the way home, the twins are eaten by a sea monster.
