Who Was That Lady Bahram Chobin saw?

In a strange and mythological tale in the so-called historical section of the Shahnameh (the Sassanid empire period of Hurmuzd), Bahram Chobin meets a crowned woman in the palace. After that, he weeps blood, overlooks and changes his manners and speeches. He claims to be a king. A number of eight different interpretations and views have been presented about the identity of this mysterious woman, extracted from the Shahnameh or contemporary writings. These are: (1) a witch, (2) fortune of Bahram, (3) a fairy, (4) an angel, (5) a deceptive soul, (6) Daena, (7) a Demon or female demon, and (8) glory. In addition to the Shahnameh referring to this woman as the "fortune" and two ancient and reliable texts introducing her as a "fairy" (Tarikh-i Tabari or The History of al-Tabari and Tabari and Nihayat al-Arab), the traditions and characteristics of the story show remarkable similarities to the narrative theme of "Fairy and Hero". This lady is more likely to be the fortune of Bahram, originally appeared in the form of a fairy and made him fond of her beauty, and provoked Bahram be a rebel against the Sasanian king as he faced his fortune. Through metamorphoses of Iranian national narratives and dropping some part of her mythological points, this fairy has changed to a good-natured, but obscure lady in the Shahnameh
