The royal message was very clear: there was an emergency. You don't have time to waste with that guard. You enter the wooden palace.

The intendant welcomes you as soon as you arrive. He doesn't even notice your lack of clothes:
"Welcome. Please follow me. The queen will receive you immediately."
"Isn't she having her bath?"
"Precisely."

The intendant leads you through the long and decorated corridors before stopping in front of a door. When he opens it, the air becomes hotter and heavier. You guess you are entering royal hotsprings.

"Please hurry", he says, holding the door and waiting for you to enter.

After you gave him the royal invitation, the intendant closes the door behind you as you grope along the misty room. In its center, you can see a pond magically heated. An autoritary voice calls you from the steam:

"Welcome Tinyrith. You are late. Would you join me? It will be easier to talk."
