Zabdas first distinguished himself through the conquest of Egypt, proving his military talents on the grandest scale. When the execution of Zenobia's strategic orders fell to him, he became the instrument of Palmyrene power across the eastern provinces. His campaigns against Aurelian would test whether his Egyptian victories could withstand the might of Rome itself.
