Eliot did try to turn away, but only until he saw it was futile and that
Sam would follow his moments. At that point he met the demon's cool gaze.
No matter what Eliot thought of the man, there was truth to his words.
Sam didn't have to tell him, he had seen it happen before, to prisoners
that were kept for years, decades, in lightless holes that broke a person's
spirit as well as their body. Eliot was thankful to never have stayed in
those places for long, but he was in Hell now and this was for eternity. He
will break, eventually, this was the type of place that certainly wore a
person down, but not today.
"It has happened to you," Eliot noted, studying the man who told him
these things, "if you're convincin' me t'fold right now." Although his face
was held Eliot still shook his head with the leeway he was given, without
breaking their eye contact. "Some things are worth fightin' for. An' it's
when y'stop that you forget who you are."
