In Michael Moorcock's fantasy universe, Prince Corum, the last of the Vadag race, is a character no less important than the famous Elric, Emperor of Melnibone. He, like Elric, enters into an unequal battle with the Lords of Chaos, the Lords of Swords, in a neighboring dimension he comes to the aid of people in their unequal struggle with Foi Miore, the people of the ice, fights with Arioch himself, the Lord of Higher Hell, and commits many others, not feats less worthy of the title of Eternal Warrior.
