| 520 | _a"Rattle of Bones" by Robert E. Howard is a short story written in the early 20th century, specifically during the 1920s. This tale falls into the genre of horror-fantasy and features themes of vengeance and the supernatural. The story is set in a dark and foreboding tavern located in a mysterious forest, where the eerie atmosphere sets the stage for a confrontation with fate and retribution. In the narrative, two travelers, Solomon Kane and Gaston l'Armon, find themselves at the ominously named Cleft Skull Tavern, where they sense an unsettling tension. The story escalates as Kane discovers a hidden room containing a skeleton shackled to the floor, and soon, the treachery of his companion, Gaston, is revealed. The tale takes a dark turn when the tavern's host, a man driven to madness by his past and the horrors he inflicted upon others, attempts to kill Kane. However, the dead magician's bones, freed by Gaston, come back to claim vengeance. The climax reveals a macabre twist as the skeleton takes its final revenge on the twisted host, blending elements of supernatural horror with the harsh realities of human cruelty.
