Tsotha-lanthli, an agent of king Ctesphon.

Tsotha-lanthli seems to be some kind of agent of Stygia. He is certainly an acolyte of stygian mages and an initiate of the religion of Stygia. In "The queen of the Black coast" it is said that the hate of the stygian princes for Conan would grow into a tall tree and in time bear blood-red fruits. This may well be the mission of Tsotha. In "The Scarlet citadel" it is revealed that Rinaldo, a co-conspirator of Thoth-Amon in "The Phoenix on the sword" had dealings with Tsotha. Arguably it was through Rinaldo and then Tsotha that Ctesphon, priest-king of Stygia(or rather: its white-skinned ruling elite) did learn where he could find Thoth-Amon(as a slave of Ascalante)and send the ring, retaken fron the priest-mages who stole it, to Thoth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.198.216.242 (talk) 11:51, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

The flower rooted in Hell - The Asphodel from "Kull"?

The diabolical flower from which Conan saves Pelias is said to have its roots in Hell - and to stem from Yag, home-world of Yag-kosha i "The tower of the Elephant." Darkpriest Rotath in the Kull-story "The curse of the golden skull" calls himself "of the Moonstone and the Asphodel".The asphodel was a flower that the greek did dedicate to Persephone, the queen of Hades(both the realm of the dead and its ruler)with time the fields of Hades were thought to be covered with asphodel. The Moonstone is arguably "The red heart of the night"= The heart of Ahriman.The moon-goddess riding a tiger looks like Durga,a hindu goddess often identified with Kali. She was mother of the god Ganesha. Yag-kosha resembles Ganesha an come,like Rotath, from this part of the world.The father of Ganesha was Shiva The destroyer."Ahriman" means "The destroyer".
