Later, he expressed that he only cared about the gold in the country. Cortes advises him to have the natives (more likely Aztecs) give him a tour of the area. The natives guide him to a temple where he meets an immortal celubra, Santánico Pandemónium, whom some of the natives considered as a queen and worshiped as a goddess. They fall in love and she turns him into a celubra. Cortes' men find the temple and Carlos shows up and kills them. Afterward, he decides to stay with Santanico.
In the 1800's, Carlos is spending time with Santanico and complimenting on her, due to being abused and controlled by the Vampire Lord, Amancio Malvado. Malvado then shows up and mocks Carlos and sends him away.
