Returning to her bedroom, Astrid noticed a teal nightgown placed on the desk chair, along with a set of clean undergarments. Judging by the size, they weren't hers.
Ever since the last time Astrid had Lyra change clothes in her chambers but hadn't prepared the right size, forcing the girl to wear a freshly washed maid's dress, the ever-efficient head maid had quickly prepared Charlotte's clothing sizes in the wardrobe for any future overnight stays.
In addition to the Countess, Elise had also prepared clothes for others based on their measurements, such as the second daughter of the Minister of Finance, Lydia, or Miss Lina Velmont, who was on good terms with Lyra.
Once again marveling at Elise's thoughtfulness, Astrid took off her shoes and saw Charlotte lying on her side by the bed, her dark hair cascading naturally down her back.
Looks like she'll have to help her wash up...
