a bit belated— my apologies! 
additional tags for reference and visibility. 

The jodai led @Wicca down the many corridors of the palace.

Guest quarters were often kept further away from the royal chambers, as was proper.

Once a suitable one caught the man's eye, he gestured that she should enter. But he wouldn't yet leave until he was certain it would suffice. Stranger or not, she was considered a guest. @Ramesses doted upon them, which meant the jodai was equally responsible for seeing to it she was satisfied. 

If this chamber will suffice, I will leave you in peace to rest. When the pharaoh is ready to see you again, myself or a fellahin will come to collect you. It was more likely that a fellahin would be sent, but he couldn't yet be certain. No promises would be made. While you wait, if there is a need you have, don't fear calling upon one of our servants to attend you. 

There may have been few she could call upon — Sayf, Jawahir, or the young @Nazli — but more often than not, they were swift to heed a summons.
silence at the
proper season is
wisdom and
better than any
speech.
