You'd rather not anger her, and agree. She calls for a guard to bring several pails. "Hurry up." She commands, her tone snappy. You're not sure how serious she is, and don't intend on finding out. With the guard in hot pursuit, you sprint fown the corridors and to the lower levels, where a natural spring has been tapped providing fresh water to the castle. You draw them all up to the brim, and place them over a lit fireplace. Several minutes later, you manage to slog the scalding contents all the way back to the top, panting and wheezing by the time you return. The guard locks the door behind you as you enter.
The room has gotten darker, and you notice the fireplace has been extinguished. All around the walls, the bracketed candles have been lit, casting a shaky illumination. The door to the balcony has been opened, letting in a chilly breeze that causes the curtains to billow in the wind. You notice Godwina is hidden behind the dress partition. "Fill it up, I won't be a second."
You do as commanded, the boiling water sizzling. You hear the rustle of clothing and notice that Godwina is undressing. "Turn away," she commands, and you do so. Moments later, you hear a gasp as she slips into the boiling water.
"Ohh this is so good!" She breathes. "Come, soap up my back."
