A Shared Destination

After what felt like hundreds of years of unbearable torture, Elijah was finally pulled out of his personal hell. As he regained his senses, he found himself kneeling in front of Daniel. "How long was I in there for?" He asked while using a small portion of his essence to rehydrate his wide-opened eyes, and mouth.

"Five minutes." Daniel responded with a casual tone.

His response had a clear effect on the champion of Destiny, who had been forced to experience unspeakable suffering at the expense of only five minutes of his time. As he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and began to sweat, he could only imagine what would have become of him had Daniel chosen to continue that torture for hours, or days.
