Death is rather curious angel, he doesn't care if people are good or bad he only cares if they are entertaining, when he sees that the immortal witch tatuana, and brother Javier are getting together he decides to interrogate them. Death soons discovers that tatuana has gotten into trouble because of the love triangle surrounding the governor of New Castille, his lawful wife and a native nahua Princess. Tatuana attempted to help the wife, without knowing the details of suspecting that her aid would turn her into a prisoner whose magical abilities would be used in the conquistador's quest to defeat the remaining mage king of the area. Meanwhile, brother Javier has had vision of destruction that are prompting him to make alliances where he least expected to. Brother Javier turns a cross into gold and gives it to Tatuana saying is blessed and will help keep her safe, she takes it with skeptic gratitude. As strange and fun as the alliance between a witch and a saint is, it still doesn't reveal why there have been missing souls, and Death makes a point to ask what is responsible. Tatuana accuses the Devil, who immediately jumps to his own defense, revealing he had been spying in their strange reunion for a while. The Devil admits to being partly responsible for some of the missing souls, but that there have been other events that have gone beyond his control due to the paranormal creatures and Old Gods of the region. He insists there is a need to change his methods of damnation so that he doesn't lose his authority in the New World. Brother Javier confronts him over these plans and assures the Devil of his intention of counteracting whatever chaotic plans are underway. The Devil, annoyed, makes the Saint lose consciousness and transports him to his convent bedroom. Before Tatuana can complain, The Devil makes her fall asleep too, and carries her to her bed. He then approaches Death alone, which they both know was his intentions from the beginning. The Devil begins to tempt Death with the only thing Death can be tempted with: Stories. The Devil wants Death to release a large number of souls on the Colony of New Castille, and the best part is that the Devil would take the blame for the incident, leaving Death to enjoy and watch the fun.
