Shahrazad

The tale goes that every day King Shahryar would marry a new virgin and he would send the previous day’s wife to be beheaded. This was done in anger after finding out that his first wife had betrayed him. He had killed three thousand wives by the time he was introduced to Shahrazad, the Vizier's daughter. Shahrazad volunteered to spend one night with the King. Shahrazad asked if she might bid one last farewell to her beloved sister, Dinazade, who had secretly been prepared to ask Shahrazad to tell a story during the long night. The King lay awake and listened with awe as Shahrazad told her first story. The night whiled away, and Shahrazad stopped in the middle of the story. The King asked her to finish, but Shahrazad said there was not time, as dawn was breaking. So, the King spared her life for one day to finish the story the next night. So the next night, Shahrazad finished the story, and then began a second, even more exciting tale which she again stopped halfway through, at dawn. At the end of one thousand and one nights and one thousand stories, Shahrazad told the King that she had no more tales to tell him. During these one thousand and the King had fallen in love with Shahrazad, and had three sons with her and made her his Queen. The Arabian Nights is a series of stories with in a story the main story is that of the King Shahrayar and Shahrazad, the daughter of the Vizier.
