2000 years ago, a demon named Sparda rose up against the demons to defend the humans…blah, blah, blah.
Everyone thinks that demons are heartless creatures that don't deserve any pity that they are the damned and should all be exterminated. What they don't realise is that many demons do have hearts… family… loved ones. The devil himself is one of these demons. He too had a family. Even though his wife was a human and a mortal, she braved the demonic lands to be with her loved one and even bore a child… a son. Lucifer was thrilled even though (just like Sparda's sons) he was only a half demon… that didn't matter, it would give him strength… they decided to name him Cassias. They lived on, Lucifer and his wife training the boy for the life outside. On the boys 16th birthday he was given a sword by his father, he said that "it will come to life when you are ready". On his 18th he was released into the outside underworld to fend from himself, only returning for birthdays and other celebrations. He loved his mother and father and started to see them more as well as the celebrations. But… three days after his 21st birthday; he went to his mother's and father's home to tell them that he had slain a Blitz only to find his mother dead upon the floor and his father missing. In shock and horror he cradled his mother in his arms, crying… a gift for being half human. When he could see somewhat through his tears he looked down to find that his mother had written something in her blood upon the floor. He stared down and it spelt one word… Dante…
