"We are. No one's found a way out so far." But Alec hasn't given up hope that someone would find a way out or someone on the outside will find a way in.

As he speaks, Alec keeps an eye on the guest, wondering again if it's an illness or something else. "I don't think anyone knows who 'they' are. No one's seen them in awhile." Which really isn't as important at the moment compared to finding out what's wrong with their newest guest. If it's contagious...

Well,tact never was one of Alec's strong suits.

"I know you don't want help and I get not wanting people to know you're having a problem but you are sick. If it's contagious, you need to get to the infirmary that's been set up. Even if it's not, you should probably have someone check you out before it gets worse. We don't exactly have access to hospitals here."
