In The Great Khan’s Tent Episode XV: The Arabian Nights Part XIII

In this episode, we continue “The Story of Nur-ed-din Ali and His Son and of Shams-ud-din Mohammad and his Daughter”. We see here, for the first time, actual geographical destinations that do correspond in actuality to the location where Nur-ed-din begins his journey in Cario, going to Bilbais, Jerusalem, Aleppo, and finally ending in Basra. We also have mention of a town in Egypt, Qalyub or Kalyub as Nur-ed-din tries to throw off his scent as his brother might try to follow him. References here are also made on how people perceived travelers during this time, such as the interaction between the Vizier of Basra and Nur-ed-din, how they have to concoct a story in order to adopt those coming from outside of their known environs. Lastly, the special episode that was supposed to be out today will be delayed to our next upload due to some unforeseen circumstances.
