"My father spoke of the nasnas—half man, half shade—born of jinn and mortal blood.
He said it bears but one arm, one leg, and half a face, yet it hops with unholy speed.
Its eye gleams like molten rock, and its touch brings death so swift the flesh falls from the victim's bones in a single breath.
That is nothing.
The merchant from Baghdad who gave me this coin once told me of the shadhavar.
He said it roams the lands of Rum with a single horn of wondrous design—hollow and branching into many pipes.
When the wind sighs through those pipes, it plays a melody so sweet that beasts draw near to listen.
And when they come too close, the shadhavar tears them limb from limb and devours them whole."
