It would take Thoth-Amon many years years to claim it. For no one sought the Ring without anguish. And without paying a dreadful price.[2]
History
Early years[]
The Serpent Ring of Set was an artifact which was buried in a hidden tomb since "the Dawn of Man".[2]
Hyborian Age[]
After Thoth-Amon sacrificed all acolytes and priests at the seminary to Set and ordaining himself a priest of Set with his god's blessing, Set appeared before Thoth-Amon in the form of a large serpent, and instructed him to recover the Serpent Ring.
Many years later, and after "paying a dreadful price", Thoth-Amon finally claimed the Serpent Ring of Set, and became feared by king and commoner alike.[2]
The Serpent Ring was eventually stolen from Thoth-Amon by a Shemitish thief.[2] After losing his Serpent Ring, Thoth-Amon came into the services of Ascalante, a nobleman of Aquilonia and member of the Rebel Four, a group planning a coup against King Conan. He rediscovered the Ring in the possession of Dion, also a member of the Rebel Four. Thoth-Amon killed Dion, taking back his ring, and summoned the Ape-beast Sandal to kill Conan.[3]
Thoth-Amon eventually recovered the Serpent Ring.[2]See Also
