One moment he was charging against Mundus in the Netherworld and the next thing he knew he was here. He could remember fragments of memories between now and then. Such as fighting in a blue armor against his brother on a dark island. Mallet Island.
'Must be that plebeian that calls himself the 'King of Hell's doing. I will make his end drawn out and painful. It is the least can do after controlling me and pitting me against my brother. But first I must get out of this damnable place.'
In a distance a sliver of light could be seen."Ah, my light of salvation", he said in a sardonic voice.

Unknown to the happy couple, the only thing the child's mind was something very different.
"DAMNATION!"
