Once Alexander woke up the next morning, he gave himself a bit of time to think over some of the things he had discussed with Lady Inayah.
And as he thought, reminisced, and analyzed them, he found that he had missed another critical possibility.
'Wait! If the nobles did know about the attack, why hasn't any of them say anything to me?'
'They should have found out about it weeks ago!'
Alexander soon had that doubt.
And so he continued to think more about it, trying to find an answer.
But ultimately, no matter how much he thought about it, he could not guess as to the reason why.
It just did not make any sense to it.
'Fuck it. I will ask them directly.' So Alexander at last decided that and then pushing all other thoughts to the back of his mind, he eagerly went to attend the meeting with the nobles.
Where he very frankly informed them of the situation of his city.
