"Your Highness! What are you-"
"Oh. Ella. I am glad you are here. Please help me dry myself."
"Gasp* Of course! My goodness! Why are you here unattended, My Lady!"
Ella, who was standing in front of the bathroom astounded, rushed towards me with a frown.
"Well… It's better to dry myself rather than wait for someone to come and help me. Besides, it's not that hard of a job."
"Ah… I apologize, My Lady. I should have gotten here sooner."
"That's alright. You are here now."
"..."
After that, Ella didn't say anything. She just quietly and gently wiped my body with a dry towel. For some reason, she looked upset.

When I returned to my room, I discovered a couple of maids preparing my outfit. As soon as they saw me they stopped working and bowed their heads.
"Continue your work."
