  "Princess, it's time to get up" I heard my handmaiden smooth voice whisper quietly in my ear as she attempts to shake me awake.

  "Ughhh... what time is it?" I yawn out my question to the tall, pale human standing above me.

  "Six fourth-three, Princess." She responds neutrally, untucking me from bed. As the the frigid air hits my skin, my body instinctively curls up in a ball to keep warm. "Time to get dressed."

  "Yes ma'am." I respond seeing no point in trying to go back to sleep now. I heard my second handmaiden, a younger human-girl, enter the room as her daily routine. She walks quickly to the curtains, and draws them back behind their hooks while the first walks me to my vanity table to help with my hair.

  I have two human handmaidens.
  The first being a woman whom appears in her mid twenties. She has long dyed-in black hair, which I only know because I vividly remember her hair being a bright shade of blue when we first met, pale-skinned, which is littered with bunches of small scars, and has crystal blue eyes. She wears a black, long-sleeved off-the-shoulder blouse, and a layered skirt, bottom layer was black like her hair and longer, and the top one being a dark brown, it was shorter to see her underskirt, yet more fitted around her waist. Over the top of her head a simple black cloth veil that ties in the front.
  From what I know, she's supposed to wake me up in the morning, assists me with getting dressed, my hair, and if I want to wear any makeup, does laundry, and assists the kitchen staff with dishes.

  The second one is clearly a bit younger than I am, maybe around 18-years of age? Like the first, her previously vivid colored hair had been dyed black; however, she had pale skin but with very few scars, and instead light pink eyes. Her outfit wasn't much different to the first handmaiden's, all down to even the use of a veil over her hair, except she wore a chestnut blouse with a cardigan on top, and an added corset.
  Due to her young age, she tends to leave my room while I'm dressing; however, she is the one that picks out my clothes and cleans them, the first maiden told me that herself. Other than that, I'm not exactly sure what she does for work, other than just clean around the place. I think she is more there to assist the first handmaiden, and a third whom I see around often, around the household more than tend to me.

  The third? Well I don't exactly see them too often. They tend to anyone that falls ill, either royalty or household. I think they used to be an alchemist before coming to work for us?
  They look late twenties to thirty years of age. They appear to be the only one of the three who got to keep their natural hair color, which was a dark brown and was medium length, with a very fluffy, curly, yet disheveled look to it and regularly tied back. They have tanned skin, even after the time they spent here in the End, and dark brown eyes.
  Again, unlike the other two, they wear the men's uniform with a few adaptations. They wear a black, long sleeved cotton tunic that laces in front and had a brown leather belt around their waist filled with packs of antidotes of their own concoction, ivy green pants that cut off about mid-calf, and a scuffed pair of black boots with black cloth around the top.

  The trio shown up when Father had brought them back to the End after a trip to the Overworld. He never said where he employed them, only that I now had two handmaidens, and that the three would be working around the castle. They never spoke their names to me no matter how much I asked, they kept dodging it, or outright ignoring me, so I just stopped.
  This was a little over two years ago.

"Your father arrived back home just about an hour ago Princess. He requested to see you as soon as you arose." The first informs as she finishes my hair while the second pulls out my outfit for today before scurrying out of the room.
