CONAN has a fight with a god

After fleeing the mysterious city of Xuthal where he killed nearly everyone he met and had a fight with the ancient thog, the god (yes! god!) of the people there. Thog was as gods go a fairly Lovecraftian tentacled one at that, CONAN remarks,

CONAN.
There are brains and gut and blood to be cleaned off marble tiles, and if their god still lives, he carries more wounds than I.
From "The Slithering Shadow"
