Red Sonja is struck blind by magic, and is carried off by a giant peacock-like bird sent by Suumaro's mother, Apah Alah, who does not like Sonja. Helped by a winged demon named Vasso, Sonja's sight is soon restored via the blood of the giant bird.
Sonja and Suumaro quest for a magical chalice and defeat the machinations of a backstabbing lizard demon, as well as foil Apah Alah's plans for the chalice. She helps Suumaro become king (Quillos and Apah flee, and Oryx is killed). He offers to marry her, but she refuses to become queen of Skranos.
Sonja descended from the mountains and went northward to Aquilonia. She knows her reputation as a regicide has spread. She decides to place some distance between herself and the places where she might fall prey to bounty hunters and royalist fanatics. She has a run in with death and a sinister boatman named Karon at the Aquilonian border. Later, deeper in Aquilonia she destroys a trio of vampire kings.
She spends quite a lot of time in Aquilonia, and rumors of war soon send her traveling to Shem.
She crosses paths with Conan (late 11th level, early 12th level. He was about 26 at the time) again and Karanthes, priest of Ibis. Conan, grieving for Belit still, had made an unholy bargain with Zukala. When Conan discovers that part of the price of Belit's resurrection includes Sonja's life, he kills Zukala.
They join Sumuabi's legion, and narrowly escape death and is seperated from Conan.
She continues to battle with style and grace. She is wearing the 'armor' she is famous for - the chain mail bikini (her AC drops to 15). This does not add any actual armor value, but is distracting for opponents, and gives her extreme freedom of movement.
