An angry Sultan vowed to take his revenge on all treacherous women by each evening taking a new bride, but seeing her killed before dawn the next day. Only the Vizier’s daughter, Scheherezade, can keep such bloodshed at bay, by keeping the Sultan enraptured at her night-time stories of adventure and wonder. Stories of powerful jinees and humble townsfolk, quick-witted thieves and head-strong princes, nimble pick-pockets and out-smarted kings.
