After a frugal breakfast, their journey through the city was interrupted by Pythagoras, as he had heard sounds coming from a nearby blacksmith and entered the building. Following this, Pythagoras started an experiment with two hammers and an anvil, creating different kinds of sound. As his master was intrigued, Kyros and Pythagoras took ten differently sized hammers back to their villa, to which Pythagoras continued his experiments on the anvil the blacksmith had delivered. By nightfall, he had made many notes and mumbled something about the tetractys, which Kyros did not understand. The following day, a gathering of renowned scholars was held at their villa, and Pythagoras explained to them his theory. Even though some people were skeptic, most of them understood and praised him for it.
