Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In this Xena-styled spin on the spaghetti Western genre, a wounded man surrenders a parchment map leading to the lost treasure of the Sumerian Empire. Inasmuch as that treasure includes ambrosia, the substance that can turn humans into immortals, Xena (Lucy Lawless) and Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor) decide to go prospecting. In order to find the treasure, Xena is forced to team up with a pair of unsavory characters -- one of whom had been her fiancé back in the Bad Old Days.
