The Pleiades were used to mark seasons for agriculture and navigation, and their Persian name carries associations of celestial beauty, rare clustering of brilliance, and the melancholy beauty of distant stars.”

Shahrazad is the iconic frame narrator of One Thousand and One Nights, who saves her life by telling stories night after night.”
Fereydun
