Qart Qadesh: The City of Light

Qart Qadesh: The City of Light

Qart Qadesh is the true story of the Canaanite city of Qadesh from 1330-25 BCE in the time of King Tut. Qart Qadesh begins, logically in the city of Qadesh. In the palace, the King, Sutarna prepares with the chief Kohan, Benel, for the Festival of Ra'ash Yeni. They then perform a sacrifice of wine. Sutarna meets with his son in law, Etakkama, who disrespects the Gods. Sutarna thinks it's the gods that win battles whilst Etakkama believes in Millitary Stregnth. This leads Sutarna to threaten disinheriting Etakkama, who then plots to poison Sutarna, with the help of Latuha the clown. Then, they all go up onto the roof of the palace to drink. The Clown poisons Sutarna, then leaves. The guards catch the clown. Etakkama questions the clown and decides Biryawaza, king of Dimashq, is behind the poisoning even though it was really just Etakkama himself that poisoned Sutarna. And meanwhile in Dimashq, Mutba'al, the King of the Apirut plots with Biryawaza to destroy Qadesh, and sacrifices a small child to Yahu. Mutba'al wants to "Obliterate" Qadesh. Etakkama then executes a lot of people in conection to the poisoning plot, including Sutarna's widow. Ari Teshub is mad because Etakkama kills his Grandmother. Ari Teshub creates a plan: Kill the Apiru Giant Gilgag, who is raiding the countryside, to be put at the head of an army. Then he will be able to stop the evil of Etakkama and Mutba'al. Ari Teshub is placed alongside his brother, Niqmaddu, at the head of an army. THey are motivated to stop the apirut from sacrificing Babies. They march off to Enishasi, where the Apirut are garisoned. Along the way, Ari Teshub performs miracles of the god Ba'al Hadad. When they arive at Enishasi, they meet with the son of the king, Abdi Risha, to plot to overthrow the Apirut. To seal the Alliance, Ari Teshub marries Abdi Risha's sister. However, it's not long before he duels the Apiru chief, Ahadyahu, who is struck down with Ba'al's Lightning. After defeating the Apirut of Amqu, Ari Teshub returns home to save Qadesh from the Apiru Threat. Meanwhile, the Apirut are sacrificing Babies to Yahu. Ari Teshub prays to the gods, to protect Qadesh. After Etakkama dies, Ari Teshub takes control of Qadesh and defeats the vast Apiru Hordes, with the help of the gracious gods, because the gods will support the righteous.
