In this episode, we finally reach the end of the story of the Fisherman and the Jinn with Night VIII and Night IX. Within Night IX, we also begin one of the popular stories in the Arabian Nights, that of “The Porter, The Three Ladies of Baghdad, and The Three Dervishes”. Here we also encounter the first scientific wording which refers to bodily anatomy. We also begin to see more references to the Abbasid Caliphate, which will continue within this story as we go along.
