You ever hear the story of the twin sons of a demon? Yeah, you know the one. The story of the sons of Sparda.
Stories say that the two were once inseparable, but when they got older they fought like rivals over the power of their father.
One believed the power was rightfully his. Whether he wanted it due to his belief, want for revenge, want to protect, or just a power lust isn't answered. Maybe it was some combination of them all.
The other tried to stop his twin from unleashing Hell on Earth. Literally.
The brothers fought it out when the oldest took the power of their father.
In the end, the youngest won, stopping his brother from going down a dark path.
What most people don't know is what really happened after.
The oldest was saved by his brother, but the two went separate ways.
One went on to continue hunting demons and clean up the small mess his brother made when opening the demon world briefly.
The oldest on the other hand?
Well, he ended up hanging around in Fortuna for a long time with a childhood friend of his. Well, she was a friend. It went a little further than that eventually, and she ended up having a son.
Call it bullshit if you want, but it's the truth. I should know.
My name is Nero. I'm Vergil's son, and I haven't seen my father in years. Not after he left.
