Biography
Scheherezade was known to have told stories to a King in the One Thousand and One Nights fables. The real story is a bit different though, the one she told stories to was a demon Shahryar. Tired of her fate she secretly sent a giant beetle to grab Lara Croft and bring her to the demon's realm. Lara being her stubborn self had no interest in playing the demon's game and immediately started to look a way out. They sought out Balthasar who informed them of the Scripture of Krys before being killed. They then managed to find the location of the scripture, but needed a flying carpet to reach it. They ssought help from Ali, who sent a messenger with a location of such a carpet. Scheherezade let Lara fight the snake goddess, who she freed from her curse. Grateful, the snake goddess gave them the carpet that could fly them to the top of Mount Ori. They were joined by Ali, who was on the run from the guards. They reached the top and Shahryar inserted himself into his story. Lara distracted the demon while Scheherezade and Ali found the Scripture of Krys. They had trouble reading it, and they tossed the scripture to Lara who locked the demon away and freed them all to the real world again. Scheherezade was worried she doesn't fit in the modern world, but Lara assured her that the heart of the land is still there for her.
