They are led to their bedchambers.

The interior of the castle was dark, and it smelled musty and old to Jilleen. As she walked beside her mistress, she could sense others nearby, and eventually some of them joined Sister Damika. Gradually Jilleen’s eyes adjusted to the blackness, and she was able to see. Torches were mounted a great distance apart in the corridors and they flickered with low, blue flames, tinged with yellow, orange and red tips.

Jilleen became aware that she and Mistress Vilea were now escorted six nuns dressed in their black robes and cowls. Beads and in some case small chains were belted around their waists. Some of the nuns accompanying them wore tight fitting garments, and it was quite easy to discern voluptuous female bodies beneath. Jilleen sensed that Vilea was quickly tiring, and she had just started to reach forward, and tap Sister Damika on the shoulder to inform her when the party came to a halt in front of two heavy oak doors.

“This is where you shall slumber.. But first you shall disrobe so that the sisters and I may bathe you both” Damika said as she slipped a key into the heavy lock, turned it, and pushed the door open. The room was well lit, and a large fire blazed in the fireplace. A large framed bed with a canopy and many blankets and pillows stood against the wall opposite the flames of the hearth. A door to the right side of the stone mantle opened to another bed chamber that was situated in a similar fashion as that which they had just entered, the only differance being that two large wooden tubs filled with steaming water were placed in front of the fireplace. Stools, several buckets, and some bathing brush lay on a table nearby.

“Come, come ladies. Please let us disrobe and bathe you, so that you might be cleaned and warmed. The sisters are skilled and have a gentle touch, they will work quickly, and you will be in bed in only a few moments.”

Very well.” Vilea sighed, and was quickly surrounded by three of the nuns, who began to unbutton and unlace her garments. In the well lit room it was now quite apparent that none of the sisters was very old, the oldest of them appeared to be but thirty years of age. This was quite unlike most nunneries that Jilleen was aware of, where the situation was usually quite the opposite.

A beautiful girl in her late teens with blue eyes and a lock of golden hair fallen from her cowl, began to unlace Jilleen’s bodice. She smiled pleasantly, but the enchantress had the feeling that the young women was looking especially forward to seeing her naked. Her eyes smoldered with desire.

Looking back at her mistress she saw that two of the sisters attending her were now naked, save for their cowls.  Her mistress stood with her back to them, so she had not as yet noticed.  The bodies of the two young nuns were pale and unblemished, their nipples pink, and their sexes covered with  triangles of wispy curls, dark on one and fair on the other.

As she asked Sister Damika why the nuns were disrobing as well removing her and her mistresses clothing, two of the women stripping her undid their robes, and they fell to the floor at their feet.

“What is the meaning of this?” her now naked mistress asked as she was led to a tub filled with steaming water.

“It is our way. I am sure you will be well pleased with how the sisters and I will tend to your needs” Sister Damika answered, as she pulled loose the belt of her robe, and the garment fell to the floor. Jilleen saw that Sister Damika and all of the other now naked nuns had small tattoos of broken swords just above and to the right of their pubic mounds. What could it mean and what were the intentions of the nuns?
