chapter 17

The servant gently guided Isabella to a small room filled with warm steam, where a large, inviting tub of water waited. The water was scented with fragrant oils and flower petals, making the air sweet and calming. The servant carefully helped Isabella step into the bath, where the warmth instantly relaxed her. As she soaked, the servant gently washed her hair, massaging in rich, foamy soap, and then rinsed it with care.

After the bath, Isabella was dried off with a soft towel. The servant then brushed and styled her hair until it was smooth and neat, making sure every strand fell perfectly in place. Next, she dressed Isabella in a lovely outfit—a dress made of fine, silky fabric in vibrant colors and decorated with delicate patterns. The dress shimmered slightly as she moved. To finish, the servant added some simple but elegant accessories, like a ribbon in her hair and a small necklace that caught the light just right.
