[Ordinary, personal hells probably are worse than magical hells, really, but also a huge can of worms on their own right. Erin wisely decides not to press on that]
You really don't seem to me the kind of guy who'd poke around in cults if you could avoid it.
[Doesn't seem neither lost nor curious about the cult life. If anything, Erin thinks he seems the kind of guy who'd try to avoid piling more trouble onto his life, especially since he already has a very ordianry personal hell to deal with]
I didn't really have time or interest in the occult. But I did study some months before you all were pulled here. So I have more to work with than you all do, at least.
A mafia doctor. Oh, great. That's still very out there but it's not as outrageous as cults.
[Part of her wants to ask if everyone in the mafia has the animal ears or if it's just Nehan. Thankfully, although she's not one to mind her words much, she decides keeping Nehan in good mood since his help will be needed in the future is important, so she refrains from asking]
Okay, tell me something: were you in this Scawwy cult thing because you wanted, or because there was no choice?
[It's an important distinction here, because she's leaning towards the latter being the horsemen's situation. From talking to War and poking at Famine a little and now what Nehan said, they really don't give her vibes of willingly joining]

I joined willingly. To be clear, all of us were invited—it's different from how you were abducted.
[ they are... or at least were members of the cult. it's different from sacrifices. ]
I wouldn't say it's very easy to leave, but I had a choice. Most times, there's always a choice, even if the other option is death.
