A long time ago, according to legend, there lived a king named Shahriyar. Partly due to his unfaithful wife and a strange character of his own, he started to hate women. He used to marry a woman each night and kill her the following morning. Then came a cunning lady named Shahrazad to marry the king. She beguiles the king with a series of stories. These stories continued for a thousand and one nights. Thus, is the origin of all fabulous stories of 1001 Arabian nights.
