Features: Legend has it that a handsome Arab king had a magic mirror that he cherished. He spent his days admiring the angelic image that frequently appeared in the mirror. One day, the mirror accidentally fell to the ground and broke into pieces. This worried the craftsmen in the palace, who quickly tried to repair and piece it back together, but unfortunately, they left behind a series of fine cracks. When the king looked at the mirror again, he saw an image of a donkey wearing a crown.
