Humay Chehrzad

Humay-ē Chehrzad (Middle Persian: Humag, Avestan: Humāiiā) was a legendary Kayanian dynasty queen of Iran for around 32 years.

She ascended to the throne and ruled Iran after the death of Bahman.

After her ascension, she gives birth to a son, Kai Darab, whom she keeps hidden for 8 months.

During this conflict, Rashnwad finds Darab, and recognizes him as Humay's child.

When they return to the capital after defeating the Romans, Humay retires and hands the throne down to her son after 32 years of rule.
