The scent of fresh eucalyptus and warm steam curled through the air as Adina stepped into the bathing room. The sound of water lapping gently against the walls was almost hypnotic.
Two palace maids stood outside the bathroom, while she could see one inside. Adina inhaled, tucked a damp curl behind her ear, then cleared her throat softly.
"I'll take over from here," she said, trying to sound more confident than she felt.

The girls stared at her like she had grown two heads, but they nodded. No one wanted extra work, and they all took whatever breaks they could whenever. Adina watched them quietly step out of the room.
