Eden has some questions, but to what end?

Bahram glares at Eden, then quickly shifts back to catty mischievousness. BAHRAM: "To what do I owe the honor, anyway?" EDEN: "The one thing I haven't figured out yet. Why you're doing all of this. What's the point?" BAHRAM: "Why do you care?" Eden folds his arms. EDEN: "Scientist's habit? Chronic curiosity?" BAHRAM: "I am shocked you have the energy. You are halfway in the grave, no hope of salvation. I know you and your little friends believe the Elixir of Life can kill me. Stop kidding yourself. Even IF Akiva Stein creates the Elixir, I have consumed too many souls to be touched." Eden rolls his eyes, thinking, "I'm already preparing for that possibility, you piece of shit."
