Page "Amasis II" Paragraph 5

This daughter of Apries, was none other than Nitetis, who was as per Herodotus's account, " tall and beautiful.

" Nitetis naturally, betrayed Amasis and upon being greeted by the Persian king explained Amasis's trickery and her true origins.

This infuriated Cambyses and he vowed to take revenge for it.

Amasis would die before Cambyses reached him, but his heir and son Psamtik III would be defeated by the Persians.
