So what’s Conan the Barbarian: Eastern Horizons about?

Following rumors of untold treasures into the mystic East, Conan the Barbarian stumbles into a web of sorcery, deception, and danger. A chance encounter with a captive princess leads to a night of passion, a clash of steel, and a confrontation with an otherworldly power.
