Alexander marches into India. He engages with several Indian tribes, including the Nyassans, who claimed to be the descendants of the people who traveled to Greece with Dionysus, and the Assaceni, who tried the old “we're hiding in a fort and you can't get us” trick. This provides him with a chance to do something even his famous ancestor Heracles failed to accomplish – to take The Rock of Aornus.
