SEASON 4: The Mediterranean Prepares

EPISODE 70: El Cid, Pt. 4: The Road to Valencia

We’re entering the final act of a story centuries in the making. From the heights of Córdoba to the dust of Zaragoza, the Iberian Peninsula is now a battleground of faith, power, and legacy. As the Reconquista surges forward, we begin the closing chapters in the life of Spain’s greatest legendary warrior—El Cid.
