Fedallah is a character in which work?

Fedallah is a character in Herman Melville's Moby-Dick. He arrives as a mysterious Parsee harpooner who sails with Captain Ahab aboard the whaling ship Pequod and speaks in prophecies that foreshadow the voyage’s doom. This distinctive presence—a spiritual, fate-bound figure tied to the hunt of Moby-Dick—belongs to that novel, not to The Scarlet Letter, The Courtin', or A Rescue, which are different works by other authors without this character.
