After a long soak in the warm bath, the tension in Eleanor's shoulders had finally started to melt away. She dried herself off in silence, pulled on her fresh tunic, and ran a hand through her damp silver hair before giving Sophia a quick nod. "Don't stay too long, or you'll end up falling asleep in there," she said with a slight smirk.
Sophia waved lazily from the tub, her arms resting along the edges. "I'll be fine. Just five more minutes."
Eleanor didn't argue. She slipped out of the women's bath and made her way quietly back to their room, leaving Sophia alone to enjoy the last few moments of peace.
