Alexander spotted most of the people in the pools were too busy washing themselves to notice his and his 'strange' group's arrival.
Rather the entire place gave a sense of busyness and business, as despite how everyone was completely naked, people rarely spent any time looking at others.
Alexander felt pleased that there were no wary gazes and breathed a sigh of relief at the much cooler temperatures.
This also gave him a rare opportunity to observe the people in the pools and the first thing he noticed was that there was much less talking or other noise here.
People did not really chat or linger but seemed much more concerned about getting their baths done as quickly as possible and then moving on to the next room.
And as they cleaned themselves, Alexander noticed that the people did not use any soap. but simply their hands, or a best a small cloth to scrub off the oil they had put on before bathing to pick out the dirt.
