Zus had his judging eyes on Zok's face, eagerly waiting for his answer. Meanwhile, Zok was still not confident enough to tell Zus the story about what happened inside the cave where he got his powers. If there were supposedly more of such caves out there in the Wilderness, then it was better for him to have his lips sealed tight.
Thankfully, the time was with him. How? Well, it had been a long time since Zus had been in contact with any Occunian. Thus, he had no way to determine if what Zok was telling him was correct or not. In other words, Zus had no choice but to believe whatever Tulak's shit spouted out of Zok's mouth.
