Summary
Sassanian king Chosroes Parvez has been deposed and placed in house arrest. Mihr-Hurmuzd has been sent to assassinate him. To save time, Chosroes asks his page to bring him prayer items. The naive youth does exactly as he is told, without fetching guards to save his master. Mihr-Hurmuzd waits until the king is done praying and leaps on him, planting a knife in his stomach. The face of the assassin has been left unfinished.
