* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: At one point, Menmon waxes poetic to Cassandra about how his plan to TakeOverTheWorld and establish TheEmpire is meant to "bring order after centuries of chaos" in a ThousandYearReign. When she tells him rivers of blood will never bring peace (and in the opening it's shown he won't hesitate to execute surrendering opponents right where they bow), he answers that they can bring obedience, and that will suffice.

It's the year 5000 BC - or thereabouts. The anachronistic Greek general Memnon is out to, you guessed it, take over the world, which consists of African tribesmen, Amazons and the City of Gomorrah in improbably close conjunction. The leaders of the Free Peoples, including the chiefs of the aforesaid Africans and Amazons, hire the 'last of the Akkadians' a race of deadly assassins, (which would come as a surprise to Sargon of Akkadia) to kill not Memnon, but the evil sorcerer whose magic and prophecies are the ultimate source of his success.

She points out its dangerous, but he claims it won't be a problem since he wants to fight him while he is half-dead and unable to fight properly. The priestess doesn't argue beyond this point likely because her boss is crazy, even though his plan makes no sense.
