You have to use some deductive reasoning to get there. (The OP explains how I got to that conclusion, actually. Though, maybe you forgot stuff from it since the last time you read it.)

You see, yes, the humans did seal away the monsters out of fear that the monsters could absorb their souls. There's also a plaque of a strange creature.. There's something disturbing about it.

Now, one might try to reasonably assume that this creature is Asriel Dreemurr, but there's a problem with that. You see, the plaques were written before any humans fell. That's because the sane plaques latert on say "But this cursed place has no entrances or exits. There is no way a human could come here. We will remain trapped down here forever." If Chara had already fell, this would be nonsense-A human already wouldhave fallen. And if this was before Chara fell, then it must have also been before Asriel Dreemurr happened. That leaves before and during the war for a SOUL absorption to have happened. But the plaques also say that not a single SOUL was taken during the war. That leaves before the war. The strange creature was a monster that took a human SOUL before the war. That's also how we humans learned of the ability.
