Mephisto offered to let Sanctuary be untouched by either angel or demon to see what the children may yet become on their own for good or ill.

The Angiris Council didn't believe the word of a [[Lord Demon]]. However, Archangel [[Tyrael]] stepped forward and asked Mephisto if he was truly proposing a truce, in order to believe him, he had to cast his mark on a place of Tyrael's choosing. To this Mephisto agreed, with the condition he was given a prize for such a goodwill gesture.

Mephisto rose his hand and bit it to bleed his black fluids upon the place chosen by Tyrael. Afterwards, Inarius was given to Mephisto to be taken into the [[Burning Hells]] for eternity. Mephisto asked what would be done with the cavern and the find within -- referring to the [[Worldstone]]. Archangel Imperius said a new pact should be done about that. What this pact was is yet unknown. Mephisto agreed with Imperius that the edyrem were to begin at the beginning with their powers set dormant and their memories of the past events of the Sin War to be wiped from their mind. Mephisto requested the firstborn, Rathma and the other nephalem to be able to remember for they were few remaining and their day was at an end.

==Rumors==

* It is not confirmed, but it is thought that Archangel Auriel and Mephisto might have been lovers due to a remark and a wink hurled in Auriel's direction after Mephisto said:

:"''... false assumptions about the creatures spawned by both our kinds." - A blazing red eye materialized, then winked in the direction of Auriel, who utterly ignored it.''
