Determined to verify the wondrous treasures promised by King Kaid of Hind, Alexander handpicked nine of his most revered, wise, and trusted Roman elders. He penned a letter laced with courtly eloquence and solemn assurances, instructing Kaid to present his four legendary marvels—most notably his peerless daughter—to these philosophers. Alexander pledged that once his envoys confirmed the existence of these unmatched wonders, he would grant Kaid an inviolable royal decree confirming his reign over India.
The nine sages traveled swiftly across the realms to Kaid's court. The Indian monarch received the Roman elders with grand hospitality, seating them in places of high honor. At dawn, as the sun drew its golden blade across the sky, Kaid prepared the inner sanctum. Upon a golden throne amid rich Chinese tapestries sat his daughter—a maiden whose celestial grace required no cosmetic embellishment, shining brighter than Venus in the midnight heavens.
When the nine philosophers entered the chamber, the sheer majesty of her beauty struck them motionless. Transfixed, their knees trembled and their speech dissolved into breathless praises of the Divine Creator. They remained paralyzed in awe, unable to avert their eyes, until messengers recalled them to the royal hall where Kaid inquired why they had tarried so long.
A Roman philosopher exclaimed that no artist's canvas could ever capture such a vision, questioning if she were truly mortal or a divine being who had inherited the brilliance of every star. Settling together with parchment, ink, and reed pens, each of the nine sages composed a poetic testament dedicated to a specific feature of the princess. A swift rider carried these manuscripts directly to Alexander.
Upon reading their luminous descriptions, the conqueror of the world was enchanted, exclaiming in wonder that he had glimpsed the very gardens of Paradise. Satisfied, Alexander commanded his sages to return bearing the four marvels alongside the Indian princess, while entrusting Kaid with the official covenant of peace and sovereignty, declaring Kaid forever safe under imperial protection.
