The holy war was a terrible time for all the races of Britannia. To combat the demons, archangels were sent to the earth to fight. The greatest of these angel were Mael (my-el) and Alicost (Alli-caust).
But after...

~3000 Years Ago
"You were ordered to kill him. How could you fail us."
"I don't believe the target is like the rest of them. I believe he should be spared."
"You sound like a dirty traitor to me."
"No. Please, please listen to me.
"Alicost, the Mindbender, I cast you out of heaven. You are no longer part of the goddess race. May your wings turn black as hell and may your soul become dark and monstrous."
~Present Day
Alicost shuddered as she felt the dark presence of the 10 commandments appear in Britannia. She hadn't awakened from her sleep in 3000 years, but the seal had been fractured, and she was finally allowed to awaken. It took a full day for her to regain her angelic powers, and her demonic ones would only be more difficult. Alicost never enjoyed consuming human souls, but it had to be done.
She suddenly felt a shiver go up her spine. Something was very wrong in the south. She teleported to see a battle being waged in a city.
"It's been a long time Gallant of truth, but it seems some demons never change."
"Who dares?!" Gallant turned, igniting the bruised and bleeding Maliodis on the ground. "Alicost? How did you get here!?" Gallant screamed.
"I could ask you the same question." She relied.
"Strength 0, power 0, MAGIC INFINITE!" A small pig rattled off.
"I don't believe it.... after all this time she's alive. The fallen angel Alicost, creator of the Ten Commandments ." Merlin's stone body thought in disbelief.
"Hmmm someone who remembers me." Alicost murmured.
"Well I'm glad you're here Alicost! You can help me dispatch if the traitor Maliotis!" Gallant said happily.
"Do you think I have slept for 3000 years just to get some piriful revenge on an old student? I am not so ridiculous." Alicost replied, black markings filled one side of her face while her other eye turned an orange color.
"I summon my little bottle of hell." Alicost said smoothly, a dark flask appeared beside her.
"ORGINAL SIN!" She yelled as darkness surrounded Gallant. "Your curse has been disabled and your magic severed. Tell Zeldris hi for me."
Gallant jumped off into the distance.
"Such a waste of power." Alicost hummed to herself. She picked up Meliodis' limp body and dragged it alongside her. Alicost placed a hand on Merlin's stone figure. A light glowed as she began to reverse the demon's magic, reverting Merlin back to normal.
Meliodis began to regain his sense, and immediately launched himself out of Alicost's hand.
"Teacher?" he said questioningly.
"It's been a while kid." Alicost said, not amused. "How could you lose to the sorry excuse for a demon! Have a little pride! Tsk. It seems you've forgotten everything I've taught you!"
"Who are you?" Diane said from across the battlefield.
"I am Alicost the Mindbender, former Archangel and creator of the Ten Commandments. I taught Meliodis how to fight with a blade. However it seems he is in need of a refresher course." Alicost said. She held out her hand and a golden blade appeared. It was the weapon of an archangel.
Meliodis and Alicost lunged at each other. The fight only lasted for a few seconds, and everything went too fast to see. Next thing anyone knew Meliodis was out cold.
"Pitiful. Absolutely pitiful. The eldest son of the demon king can't even stand to one measly archangel." Alicost said, rather annoyed.
"I'm afraid I have locked most of his power away." Merlin said, grabbing Alicost's attention.
"Then you must be considerably powerful." Alicost said. "But perhaps it is time to return that power. All hell is soon to break loose."
