Plot: Conan and his partner Malak are brought before Queen Taramis of Shadizar who asks that Conan perform two tasks for her: obtain a special gem — which may only be touched by her niece, Jehnna — and retrieve the magic horn that can awaken Dagoth, god of dreams and nightmares. In exchange, she offers to resurrect Conan's dead lover, Valeria. Conan agrees, and he, Malak, and Jehnna set off on their journey. Along the way, Conan enlists the aid of his old comrade Akiro, and then encounters Zula, a staff-wielding Kush warrior, who joins the party. Bombaata, one of the queen's guards, is sent to check on Conan's progress and joins them on the mission. The gang of six make their way to the castle of Toth-Amon, the wizard who is in possession of the magical gem. However, Toth-Amon kidnaps Jehnna (in the form of a phoenix) before they get to the castle. The gang then breaks into the castle, with Conan fighting products of Toth-Amon's magic before the wizard is mortally wounded and the heroes retrieve Jehnna and the gem.

The group now set off after the magical horn, which is kept inside a mysterious fortress. Jehnna retrieves the horn using the gem. After encountering some difficulty from a cult residing within the fortress, they attempt to make their way back to Queen Taramis. However, the queen already had plans for Bombaata to betray Conan on the journey and return Jehnna back to Shadizar by himself, which he does. Conan and the gang give chase after learning the true nature of Dagoth's rebirth. Upon Bombaata and Jehnna's arrival back to Shadizar, the queen begins preparation for Jehnna's sacrifice. She must be sacrificed at the moment the magic horn is inserted back onto Dagoth to ensure no calamity befalls the city. However, Conan and his friends break in on the ceremony, preventing Jehnna's sacrifice, and killing Bombaata. As the ritual was not completed, Dagoth instead transforms into an uncontrollable monster, killing Queen Taramis. A great battle ensues during which Conan battles the monster. The battle ends when Conan manages to weaken Dagoth by ripping out the horn that gives him life, landing the deathblow when Dagoth kneels over. The movie ends with Jehnna becoming the new Queen of Shadizar and giving each of her former traveling companions a place in her court. Conan, whose heart is still with Valeria, declines an offer of marriage and leaves to search for his own place in the world.
