Under the rule of Harun al-Rashid, the Islamic Golden Age was at its zenith - a time of unprecedented scientific, religious and artistic prosperity.

What was once an intimate fraternal bond may soon untether, jeopardizing the legacy of harun al-Rashid and threatening to tear a once glorious empire apart from the inside out.
