Where she was brought to was a beautiful room without a single table. They were asked to sit on the floor with a small cushion plush pillow that they tucked into a small tower on the corner of the room. She was about to take one but Crius stopped her and in a cue, women entered the room, all of their faces covered with a thin layer of veil that seemed to be hiding their face, maybe obscuring their features.
She didn't want to ogle but couldn't help and admire how united they move as they walked to the corner of the room, took the cushion and placed it on a circular form on the floor. Another three of the women came as well, placing a silver tray and teapot from the same material, pouring the tea in a smaller teacup than normal and then bowing and leaving.
The pleasant aroma of the flowery tea made her feel as if the flowers had just been boiled in front of her.
