Why wouldn't it? Frost Giants are easily placed in the Northlands...which is all Conan-esque anyway. Throw some dragons up there, then have your A-Team go off and kill them. QED
Yrth, as written, has no substantial populations of frost giants. Or any kind of giant of a magical nature. In fact, it has only small populations of giants of any kind. As for dragons, it is unlikely someone would end up facing more than one in their lifetime.
