Amenheraft's And Ptolomy's Reaction

Alexander held massive feasts the following three days, as he entertained himself and the four nobles, stuffing themselves with various types of meat cooked in many different ways- stewed, smoked barbequed, etc, many cuts of fish which were boiled, steamed, grilled, and seasonal vegetables sauteed in butter.

But the star of the show was definitely the dessert dishes, which included a few types of cakes, some pastries, and puddings.

"My lord, this is amazing! How much of this sugar can we buy?"

One of the nobles even forgot the etiquette about not talking about business during such formal fests, as he got distracted by the creamy, sweet delights,

For someone who had never tasted sugar, this new sensation was truly irresistible.

While Alexander and the city as a whole relaxed for a few days, the two other sides were really in the completely opposite side of the spectrum- one enjoying grief, the other side surprise and a bit of dread for not helping on time.
