Arislan or Arslan

The Heroic Legend of Arslan is the title of a Japanese fantasy novel, which is known in Japan as Arslan Senki (アルスラーン戦記, Arslan Senki).

In the 1800s, Naqib ul-Mamālik (نقیب الممالک), royal story teller of Nasereddin Shah’s court, king of Iran, became popular for creating the tale “Amir Arsalān-i Nāmdār”. In the 1990s, the story was loosely manifested as the series: The Heroic Legend of Arislan.
