When a player goes to the Underworld, a candy sorceress appear where she is offering her sweets to them. However, Sly comes in time to warn the players that the sweets have been poisoned. Angry at what Sly has said, Candy freezes Sly with a blizzard of sugar, blinding him. Sly, frozen, explains more about Candy to the players and gives them some Elixirs to help them in dealing with her.
Even the Eternals didn't know why Candy had gone mad. Arkhos only admit that he only jokes she a couple of time, and others just remarked how she was the sweetest of all.
