Chapter 192

As they neared the opulent marble edifice, young clerics hurried out to welcome them. The Remdragon and Wedon's royal knights were accompanied to private chambers while Maxi was escorted to a guest room typically reserved for nobility.

Upon entering the luxurious room, which boasted a sizable bed, Maxi shed her dusty cloak, sword, and wyvern-leather armor, setting them neatly on a stand.

Moments later, maidservants wearing white coifs carried in a steaming bath. When the women stood ready to assist her, Maxi dismissed them and undressed herself, removing her travel boots, woolen tunic, and snug hose.

Submerging in the hot water, Maxi felt the stiffness from the lengthy journey start to ease. She exhaled a relaxed sigh, reclining comfortably in the tub. While she would have preferred to share this bath with her husband, she had no way of knowing when he would return, and she did not want the servants' efforts to go to waste by letting the water cool.
