The women decided to pick out a fresh white dress that was made of imported silk. They were now going through another box, searching for accessories.

One of the women handed Nanu a towel, and then the other was studying the dress, then shook her head. She pulled out a pale top that looked small and tight-fitting, and a skirt that was embroidered with gold stitching.

"Thank you" Nanu said as she steped out of the bath. She began to dry herself with the towel.

"You were a servant before." The taller of the two women said, looking thoughtful. "But now you're about to do this. Did one of the priests assign you to do this? Or was it Isis?"

Nanu nodded softly "Priest Seto..." Nanu said softly. She now regreted asking him if he needed anything else. She should have just left.

"If the pharaoh asks, tell him it was Priestess Isis." The other one said, and nodded her head. She handed Nanu the clothes.

Nanu blinked "Why?" she asked as she began to change into the clothes.

"It's just a precaution. But if the pharaoh doesn't like the idea of you coming to him and he finds out that Priest Seto had been the one to send you, he might get angry with the priest and sentence his death."

"Priest Seto has been rather bad as of late, so the pharaoh might just be waiting for a reason to kill Seto. But Isis hasn't done anything bad enough to have herself killed."

The women nodded their heads in unison, and one grabbed a golden-handled brush made of ivory and attacked Nanu's hair with it.

Nanu squeeked at first but then became quiet letting them brush out her hair. Nanu's hair was always easy to brush.

The women chattered about what they wanted to do with Nanu's hair, and then decided to put small braids in it here and there. One of them worked on the braids, as the other gathered small jars and sat down in front of Nanu, tugging her down to the ground as well. She opened one of the jars, which had thick red liquid that almost looked like blood, but was too bright a red and too thick. She dipped her finger in it, and then rubbed it across Nanu's lips.
