[QUOTE="Myth and Legend, post: 5358238, member: 82679"] Lora nodded and headed off to her chambers. The room did not seem as glorious as it had the first time she had entered it, now that the girl had been held prisoner inside. When the made came, Lora asked for the brass tub to be filled with hot water, and that soap and herbs were brought so that she could enjoy a bath. The Wizardress was quickly growing accustomed to having servants do her bidding, and yet it was not that long ago when she would have to bathe with water she had heated herself in a big kettle placed on the iron stove in her parent's house, having her mother spill it from a basin over her head while scrubbing vigorously so she could dry off sooner and escape the winter cold creeping from under the door crack. The girl brushed her hair, giving it the much needed one hundred strokes, and took yet another garment from the wardrobe.
