Item Biography
"Sonja Goes East"
Cheng Ruong is a man of power in Khitai, ruling the city of Ruo-Gen. Nothing can stop the dissatisfaction of his boredom, however. Not his palace, not his harem of women, Fang Yin chief among them. His Chamberlain has the solution, and brings in a chained Red Sonja, captured drunk at a local tavern. Cheng is eager to have his way with her until he finds that the She-Devil cannot be tamed. While in captivity, Sonja exhorts the other women to rebel, but Fang Yin rebuffs her, saying her happiness is with Cheng. Sonja is consigned to death in the arena for her stubbornness, but she shows that she will be the deliverer, not the recipient. When she delivers the death stroke to Cheng, Fang throws herself between to save him, but they both die. Later, we see Sonja receive payment from a prince for the hit on Cheng, and he inquires after his sister Fang, who was captured years ago. Sonja doesn't tell him the painful truth.
