When you first enter the Dawn Throne at the top of Azim Step, you are in the middle of the quest "The Children of Azim". You have just entered the place and aren't respected by the people of the Dawn Throne.

But if you talk to the "Oroniri Spearson" <Gatekeep> that is at the bottom of the tower, he says

" I could never deny entry to you, who have won our most radiant brother Magnai's respect. Please proceed, my good man."

We never won anyones respect just yet so I think there is a mistake in dialog.
