Bending at the waist to give a small bow, she offers him an apology in her action for staring. As a princess, she’s not supposed to bow any lower, let alone be bowing at all. A princess must curtsy. The faint voice of Aunt Millerna can be heard while Gaddes retorts to ‘give the little lady a break’ because she’s still young.
