The legend of Ardesheer
Based on an old Iranian legend, Ardesheer (one of the greatest and most famous
Sassanid kings of ancient Iran) goes out for a battle with a devilish creature, Hormas
(half man, half tree) after he builds his capital in Pars.
Getting shot by an arrow of Hormas archers and fallen into a river, he is saved by two
wood-cutter brothers.
After a while he make a plan with those brothers to kill Hormas secretly.
They enter in devil's court by changing their appearances into the merchants and chef
costumes.
Finally finding the mysterious sword of Hormas, Ardesheer kills him by his own sword to
set people free from devil's domination.
