( Basil might have grown up with just about everyone addressing him so formally, but he always felt more at ease when he could speak to others more casually. He's knows better than to ask that of the knight, though. This was his job, wasn't it?

And the last thing he wants is to cause trouble for them. After all, he knows his Mother and Father would be unhappy if they thought that he wasn't being respectful. )

Oh, really? It's still really impressive that you were able to become a knight...

But... I-I don't think I need very much. At least... things have been peaceful here for a really long time.
