          This is in Conan of Aquilonia by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter. The scene you remember is in the final story "Shadows in the Skull", where young Conn is seduced away from a banquet by a serpent woman. He sees her reflection after she changes into a serpent, just before she tries to kill him.



          The druid is Deviatrix, a white druid out of Pictland, who uses the Heart of Ahriman, last seen in the REH classic tale "The Hour of the Dragon", to break Thoth Amon's Black Ring in Stygia.
