Lemm easily blinks out of whatever thoughts he's having. He's usually much the opposite: aware he's being rude, and incapable or unwilling to do anything about it.
Either way, he studies what they're showing him in thoughtful silence. It's a bit of an effort to make out the outline, but once he does he recognises it right away.
More silence, for a moment. More thoughtful staring.
Lemm puts down his quill.
"I'm not going to bow," he decides eventually. His tone is cautiously neutral, inoffensive as he can manage. "I've never considered myself an avid follower of Higher Beings and I don't think it's wise for me to start now. Royalty I don't put much stock in either. Hope we understand each other."
Maybe they'll strike him down for insolence or something, that would be fun. He doesn't think they will. Has it on good authority they won't, in fact.
