“We've been traders and Muslims for so long that we've forgotten what we were before that. The things that have been left behind have been rewritten. That's why we still get married on great golden chairs, cross our wedded feet under water and small swords, and wear bridal headpieces that dangle with flowers and scent.

Most of us have, anyway. But there are those who remember.”
