In this episode of Poetry of Time, King Kay Kavus’ hunger for conquest leads Iran’s army across the known world—from Turan and China to the mysterious land of Makran, and onward into Barbaristan, where the battlefield darkens the sun itself. Victory comes easily, and submission follows… but triumph breeds carelessness.
Crossing the sea to Hamavaran (ancient Yemen), Kay Kavus is ensnared by beauty and deception. A royal marriage becomes a trap. At a feast of wine and music, betrayal strikes—Kay Kavus and Iran’s greatest heroes are captured, and Iran is left leaderless as enemies close in from every side.
With Afrasiab invading from Turan and chaos spreading across the empire, only one name is spoken in desperation: Rostam. The champion of Iran rises in fury, condemning betrayal at a banquet as the darkest of crimes. He storms Hamavaran, defeats three allied kings, frees Kay Kavus, and restores order to a fractured realm—just as fate prepares an even greater tragedy to come: the story of Rostam and Sohrab.
