Okay but, she was sleeping for 4 days. If I was them, Yeah, I'd go get a damn snack. Like, they just wanted some food. It isn't like they left her for a few days. It was like what? Probably 10 minutes. It was a pretty unrealistic punishment honestly. I don't see why he really killed them for just getting a snack. I can see your point about punishment but the punishment is really too much.
Well that type of stuff used to happen all the time, especially with ppl like kings, SULTANS, pharoahs, and the like....Like of course in this day and age we think that's inhumane but those ppl's lives belong to him so ╮(￣△￣)╭ The punishment is unrealistic now but it used to be a very very real thing.
Well, the servants ARE negligent. I mean, there are 3 maids and ALL of them took a break? If I put myself in his shoes, I’d be pissed too because 1) that means they don’t think their job is important enough (which is wrong because IT IS important for the yandere-me) 2) they don’t respect their charge since they were AUDACIOUS enough to leave her alone (if this is your baby, would you be a happy none of your 3 maids was there to watch over your sleeping baby?!)
So, in summary, I don’t mind that the sultan punished the maids as this is reasonable for me and also at the same time, this is setting up his character as a STRICT ruler because even if his punishment was over the top, the servants did make the mistake. For the rest, we shall see (he was also a bookworm so probably benevolent too).
