After the events of Beauty and the Beast when Beast became human and married Belle, he decided to create a big change in the world. He created the United Sates of Auradon and enticed/encouraged other lands outside of his own kingdom to join him. All of the realms that joined with his would see peace and prosperity and if anyone had an issue with his decree about no magic use except for someone like Fairy Godmother in great times of need, no one really said it out loud.
They also didn't hide their magic use in their own realms, but that isn't important to the story.
In addition to creating the United States if Auradon, he also created the Isle of the Lost. It was pretty much a prison island with no escape. There was a barrier that prevented the use of magic on the island and immense poverty was the norm of the Isle. He would arrange for deliveries of food and supplies, but the food was mostly rotten discards and the supplies weren't really useful.
Along with all of the known villains to still be in existence and working their magic and their schemes being imprisoned there, King Beast also did something unexpected. He brought back villains who had died or been destroyed and imprisoned them on the Isle as well.
Because he was awesome like that.
And then, well then he turned his back and ignored the Isle for the most part.
Years went by and he had a son with his beloved wife and taught him all about being a king and taking care of your people. But not really all of your people.
On the Isle, children were born as well. Children who had committed no crime beyond that of having villains for parents. Their lives were not the best and many of them lived in fear of their own parents and could only rely on themselves -- and sometimes friends that they met and bonded with. Because of what King Beast had created, many of the Villain Kids grew up hating him and everyone in Auradon. Why wouldn't they? They had been abandoned and forgotten and forced to make a living however they could because of what had been done long before any of them were born. They went to school learning things to help them survive or overpower each other on the Isle and they dealt with their circumstances in their own ways.
And then, Prince Ben, Beast and Belle's son came of age. He was going to be the next king of Auradon and he wanted to do something that he hoped would set the tone for the rest of his rule.
He wanted to bring kids from the Isle to Auradon to give them a better life.
He'd start with four: the children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella DeVil. His father wasn't in support of this but Ben was adamant that it was the right thing to do.
And that is how Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos DeVil ended up leaving the Isle of the Lost and visiting Auradon.
