[center][h2]His name is… Mephisto[/h2][/center]
In investigating anything to do with Mephisto's School for the Wickedly Inclined, of course, there was always one name you would run into. Mephisto Erdrigan. Besides being the Principal of Mephisto's School for the Wickedly Inclined, he was a business man. A particularly cunning business man, he's been suspected in any number of crimes but there has never been enough evidence to convict him. Until now. And yet, he is only behind bars for a single crime out of many, and there's no telling how long he'll stay.

Yet for all that he is, for William Ascot he should not be someone of concern. The task of the Ascot family is to record and watch over history, and occasionally, steer humanity towards a happy ending if required. Mephisto Erdrigan, for all his evil, is only a businessman. But what if there was reason to believe he was more?

He cast down the blessings bestowed upon him by the gods,
and instead made a contract with the Great Evil.[/i][/center]

In front of William was an old journal. It was recently excavated from a mass grave, the skeleton it belonged to held it under its body, in the remains of its tattered clothes as if to hide it from the world.

them instead. We were able to strike him down, but at too
great a cost.[/i][/center]

It was secretly handed over to the Ascot Family as it lay in their area of expertise. It was summarily handed to William. 

[center][i]Let it never be forgotten. His name is Mephisto.[/i][/center]
