I didn't realize it back home, since...uh...the demon world isn't exactly the kind of place that encourages you to care about other people, but demons are kind of the same. Whenever I'm fighting for somepony important to me, I have the kind of power I could never have dreamed of otherwise.

I know it's a bit hard to believe that demons get power from bonds, but I'm pretty sure it's not this place. It's definitely the kind of thing that comes from myself, and it feels natural. I think I've seen Dante do the same thing, though I didn't realize what I was seeing at the time.

So...uh...yeah.
