There are absolutely flowery letters of lament, and Lemm is partly aware from context and what little he's managed to parse. The thing is they're all on top of each other, and when he tried to lift the edges of one the paper looked too fragile for his liking. Lemm has only scanned the topmost layer, and with very little immediate familiarity with her writing or cant. He's wary of damage and there's so much still to cover...
He is unaware of just how much this matter is bugging the Knight. As far as Lemm's concerned they'll get a name eventually. Delving into the text is for after they're done with a first pass.
At least he's more aware they're there, though, and this spurs him to start up talking again as they explore. (He is only faintly aware he's leading.)
"Did you see the embossed ceiling? Look at that." He points at one of the metal adornments over a supporting arch, spiked crown motif and all. "Idolatry, even here! The builders couldn't help themselves. All of it's masterwork, though, look at the detail..."
Lemm halts in front of another arch, this one leading to a short hall towards the back of the Mansion. Pale buttresses give way to an arched ceiling, the sides decorated with twin vases that don't seem to contain anything. There's a faded curtain at the end.
"It smells like Greenpath, do you notice that? Oh, look there - those sconces on the walls..."
Said sconces might be familiar to the Knight, given that they look like Delicate Flowers with a glass lumafly lamp resting on the petals. They'd be beautiful if they were still silvery, but the air's a bit more damp in here and they've tarnished badly. Lemm is obviously in love with them.
