A series of bizarre slayings shocked the city. The victims were women, sliced as if by claws and savaged almost beyond recognition. This was not a normal case, and as such, the police decided it was time to call in Terror. “Terror” was a cop who had been given his nickname due to his penchant for old horror comics. Ten years ago, it had all been a joke—until he had to solve a similar case where the killer in question turned out to be a werewolf. Terror killed someone very close to the werewolf back then, and now it has returned to claim its revenge.

After landing in jail following a night of drunken revelry, Red Sonja hears an outlandish story from a fellow inmate. Deep in the mountains lies a dead city in a valley with no name. Abandoned and forgotten, its fields and streets are littered with the bones of two armies, all destroyed by a curse from a warlock who has long since vanished, along with his vast treasure - untold riches just waiting to be taken. At least that is the legend. But Sonja's cellmate Morgo has more than a diverting tale - he's also got a map that says this legend could well be reality. All they need to do is break out of lockup and hit the road - which may be easier said than done!
