:17:12
- Excellency.
- Captain, welcome again to Charak.
:17:18
Ah, there she is.
May Allah's name be exulted.
:17:23
I prayed that Princess Farah
might reach you safely last night.
:17:28
- Has she told you?
- Yes, this morning.
:17:31
But is it true, Excellency?
:17:36
Let us go on board.
:17:38
Oh, my beloved child.
Praise be to Allah you are safe.
:17:43
Hassan, Boucheri, food and drink
for our guests. The rest of you, work.
:17:47
So, you have told the captain
of our misfortune.
:17:50
But is it true, Excellency?
:17:53
Tragically, horribly.
:17:55
We have consulted all the wisest men
and doctors from here to Alexandria.
:18:00
- They can do nothing.
- Come, sit down.
:18:10
Sinbad, you have traveled
to many foreign lands. Help us.
:18:14
- Perhaps there is someone somewhere.
- Truly, my lord...
:18:18
I will do all in my power
to help...
:18:20
but what has happened to Kassim
requires skills far greater than mine.
:18:24
It needs an understanding
of the black arts...
:18:26
a great alchemist, a magician.
:18:32
Wait. Yes, I have heard of such a man
if he still lives.
:18:36
- Who?
- Where can he be found?
:18:38
A Greek. Some say
the wisest man in the world.
:18:41
His name is...
Hassan, you remember.
:18:45
Melanthius.
That's it, the hermit of...
:18:49
- Maroof.
- Casgar.
:18:51
Yes, a remote haunted island
off the coast of Phyrgia.
:18:54
- Have you been there?
- No. Nor have I met anyone who has.
:18:57
His deeds are legendary,
but he may not even exist.
