Kamer-taj, the Moon-horse
There was once a Padishah who one day found a little insect.
The Padishah called his lala and they both examined the tiny creature. What could it be? What could it feed on? Every day an animal was killed for its sustenance, and by thus living it grew and grew until it was as big as a cat.
