[What Abel is asking of him is an impossibility, and they both know it. He can swear, but they'll just be meaningless words... that's not to say he would just roll over and let them kill him again, but he had no way to make sure it didn't happen.
Yet he would swear to hold the sun in his hands if it's what his brother needed, impossible or not. He only asks for one thing in return, even if it's just as unfair.]
I swear it. As long as you're beside me, I know we'll be alright.
[Abel couldn't help if he was taken either, or if they were separated. But he needed that same assurance. Cain would protect Abel's mind by doing all he could to get them free; and Abel would protect Cain's body by being the fighter if necessary.]
