Ishak

In the City of Baghdad, in the Kingdom of Haroun al Raschid, there were many wonderful storytellers.

Ishak was the greatest poet of the kingdom.

On one particular evening, Ishak came before Haroun al Raschid because his King looked troubled. Haroun al Raschid sent him away because poetry and words could not ease his troubled mind.

Perhaps it was Ishak’s appearance that gave Haroun al Raschid the idea to make a pact with The King Of All Dreams.

Ishak appears in Sandman # 50 on page 10. This story, “Ramadan,” also appears in Fables And Reflections.
