Néo Deípno Penga (neo deep-no pen-ga)

Summary

The "Néo Deípno Penga" was an introductory dinner hosted by the ruler of the Asphodel Quadrant to the princeling penga-to-be. While both sides agreed that it was overall very pleasant, it was mostly spent comically trying to determine which of the food their guest could actually eat. Nikit's body possessed very unique properties that were alien to both his hosts and even other humans. After analyzing a smorgasboard of exotic intra-dimensional foods, it was discovered that the only thing Nikit could eat was a simple sandwich.

Historical Basis

Agorans and mycenaeans regularly host symposiums after major and minor events. These are celebratory parties with alot of feasting and some debauchery. Dorapan rarely hosts one, for that reason, but upon realizing that a new species had entered, and was occupying, the Perron Barren, she sought to build friendly relations.

Spread

News of its success returned a sense confidence to the still-wreckage that was pre-Bhulok.

Cultural Reception

Nikit Mathur represented the collective human diaspora that was floundering in Manidweepa. He had made the first peaceful interaction with a nation unconnected to the timeline.

The people in the fleets feared everything around them.

The epiphany that there were many more intelligent, albeit alien, civilizations around them that were evidently peaceful, rational and within travel distance was a paradigm-shifting moment. Whereas before, death chasers would take the leap in some random direction and spend forever mapping their locations. After, any mobile capable group of explorers could happily leave their claustrophobic with some measure of security.
