A Witch Shall Be Born is a fantasy novella written by Robert E. Howard for Weird Tales Magazine and published as part of Conan series of stories. Excerpts below.

Taramis, queen of Khauran, awakened from a dream-haunted slumber to a silence that seemed more like the stillness of nighted catacombs than the normal quiet of a sleeping place. She lay staring into the darkness, wondering why the candles in their golden candelabra had gone out. A flecking of stars marked a gold-barred casement that lent no illumination to the interior of the chamber.
