TheYoung Justiceseason 4 instalment " Odnu ! " explored this question , through a flashback narrated by the Phantom Stranger . In ancient time , Vandal Savage ( then known as Vandar Adg ) set up a utopian village which was dwell entirely by metahumans like himself . Young Justice ’s immortal Vandal Savagereturned home from a beat of exploration and conquering to find his people dead and a joyful Klarion the Witch Boy laughing at the walloping he had work about . The two were said to have battle for 300 days and night , with Vandal Savage being unable to best the Lord of Chaos , but Klarion being as incompetent of overcoming Savage ’s regenerative ability .

"
The exact detail of the alliance forged between Vandal Savage and Klarion have yet to be revealed . It is apparent , however , that Vandal Savage must have found a direction to win over Klarion the Witch Boy to behave himself for the two to still be work out together thousands of geezerhood later . Presumably the details will come out as the Phantom Stranger continues his floor in forthcoming episodes ofYoung Justiceseason 4 .
