[...]
[...] "I don't value defiance for its own sake. But I find that most who think of themselves as defiant are merely driven by self-absorption. It's rare to see true defiance [...] So, yes, I have an interest in how this matter concludes, beyond the obvious."Description summary: Mithridacy enables the player to recognize Milton's initial response (see the Failure section below) as technically true but providing no useful information. When the player presses Milton, he acknowledges the player's expertise in a rhetorical art that Hell itself oft employs, and therefore elaborates: his interest is in those who still defy Hell, even after four decades of imprisonment, and would rather risk destroying themselves than submit.
