Ur-Enzu laughs, a booming sound that makes one of the attendants jump. "I should hope so, My Lord! At once, at once. You," he points to one of the slaves, "bring My Lord the next dish." The man bows, and scurries off, the Head Cook eyeing him all the way until he disappears behind a pillar.

My Lord was surely exhausted after yesterday, and certainly the lesser temples can wait a day or two, no? Ah, the fish."
The slave bows, setting the next course before you.
