Know, oh prince
That between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities
And the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas
There was an Age undreamed of
When shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles
Beneath the stars
Nemedia, Ophir, Brythunia, Hyperborea
Zamora with its dark-haired women and the towers of spider-haunted mystery
Zingara with its chivalry
Koth that bordered on the pastoral lands of Shem
Stygia with its shadow-guarded tombs
Hyrkania whose riders wore steel and silk and gold
But the proudest kingdom of the world was Aquilonia
Reigning supreme in the dreaming west
Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand
A thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth
To tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandalled feet
Enter the Hyborian Age
