Episode One is about Tomyris, the 6th century BC queen who with her small army of men and women brought down the greatest ruler of her time, Cyrus the Great.
Tomyris risked everything to stop a warmonger. Today Cyrus has a grand tomb carved on the side of a mountain and is known as Cyrus the GREAT. There is very little known about Tomyris and the world has forgotten that she defeated him. There is no tomb for Tomyris. Can you invade, kill, and annex to expand your empire and still be thought of as a benevolent ruler? You can. If you are a man.
