Fire and wind come from the sky,
from the Gods of the sky.
But Crom is your god,
Crom, and he lives in the earth.
Once giants lived in the Earth, Conan,
and in the darkness of chaos they fooled Crom
and took from him the enigma of steel.
Crom was angered, and the earth shook!
And Fire and winds struck down these giants
and they threw their bodies into the waters...
But in their rage, the Gods forgot the secret of steel
and left it on the battlefield.
And we who found it,
not just men, not Gods, not giants, just men.
The secret of steel has always carried with it a mystery.
You must learn its riddle, Conan,
you must learn its discipline.
For no one, no one on this world can you trust
not men, not women, not beasts
This you can trust.

Do you ever feel like strapping on the banded-armor and going out into the Gladiatorial Arena in front of cheering mob to do battle, I know I do. Or how about fighting the bloodthirsty Vanir raiders in the small, cold village in the snow-capped Hyborean mountains of Cimmeria?
If you could by born in any age, at any time (whether real or legendary) what time-period would you choose and what would you be?
