A World Abandoned By Gods

"Bingo!" 

The being announced itself as the Sovereign winked with a grin. Arthur noticed teeth were sharp enough that they reflected light. However, it didn't make the being threatening, as it had a childish smile on its face. 

"Show I kneel in greeting?" Arthur joked, but he was also probing the being in front of him. 

"I don't know, I never received any guests here," the being scratched its head and turned toward the tree. "Should he kneel for me?"

Arthur was confused and turned toward the giant tree, which seemed to be as big as the five worlds stacked on each other. He expected a reply, but there was only the hissing of the wind. 

"That is true," the allegedly Spirits Sovereign nodded after he heard the hissing. It turned back toward Arthur and waved its hand. "Social norms are a character of humans, and it's something that I don't need. If you need to kneel, feel free to do so."
