Trivia

  • According to the Bible, Abel was one of Adam and Eve's children and was the first human to ever be murdered. He was an opposite to his murderous brother Cain, which may explain the mirrored nature of this item. Also, this item is unlocked by defeating The Lamb with Cain, which makes the connection with the Bible more obvious.
