The room was engulfed in silence. While while Chester and Blake was still cooping up at the fact Basil had just said that, Basil merely sipped his tea calmly. He didn't tell them anything, however he didn't tell them lie either.
He knew he could trust them, however he didn't want to involve anyone in his own problem. Nobody should know his own matters, as he would solve it by himself. Being helped is a good thing, but intervention will be unavoidable.
Clack.
"Do you have anything to ask me, Sir?"
Basil asked the silent Blake after he put down his empty cup down. Blake could only open and close his mouth repeatedly without nothing came out.
"Uhm.. that is.. I... Do you want more?"
In the end, Blake settled for a time out. He lifted the teapot and offered Basil to refill his cup. Basil nodded his head and accepted it gladly. He wasn't in a hurry. He had time to have a tea with them.
"Where is your Companion?"
"He is at Vyres Forest."
"Why is he there?"
