Transcript

• The Curator: This tale is from before. Before Baal led his army. Before he breached the gates of Sescheron and put the Barbarian city to the sword. Before. A thousand times before. To the time of the Horadrim, who faced the Lord of Destruction. Imprisoned him within the soulstone.

• Horadrim Assistant: The Horadrim! Y-you've arrived! Zoltun Kulle and Tal Rasha are already fighting below. Here, I'll open the way!

• Zoltun Kulle: There you are. The demons are trying to keep us from the Prime Evil. Join me in foiling their efforts, will you?

• Zoltun Kulle: All dead. How splendid. Come, let us meet up with Tal Rasha before he too is a corpse.

• Tal Rasha: Welcome, my friends! Come, help me strike down these demons and we can pursue their master.

• Baal: Those who seek destruction...shall find it! Hahaha!

• Tal Rasha: Keep fighting the Demon Lord. I will deal with Baal's minions!

• Tal Rasha: He's been weakened! We must use the soulstone!

• Baal: What is the strength of man against Hell itself?

• Tal Rasha: Dammit, all that remains is a shard! Zoltun, take the others through the valley below. I will teleport to Baal and buy us time.

• Zoltun Kulle: That brazen fool has no idea what he's doing...Come with me! Quickly!

• Zoltun Kulle: Baal will overwhelm Tal Rasha if we tarry. As appealing as that notion is, we cannot fail in this endeavour. So, are you ready to fight through a ravanous horde of demons?

• Zoltun Kulle': Then allow me to open the way.

• Zoltun Kulle: More Hellflame to remove from our path. Very well.

• Zoltun Kulle: Interesting...this wall is much stronger than the others. Guard me while I dispel it.

• Overseer: Your ally suffers. Join him in his pain.

• Zoltun Kulle: No, thank you.

• Zoltun Kulle: Well done. Now, let us reach Tal Rasha and end this!

• Tal Rasha: Just in time, my friends.

• Baal: Hahaha! I will tear you apart limb from limb.

• Tal Rasha: Horadrim, do not lose faith! Victory is still within our grasp!

• Tal Rasha: Keep fighting the Demon Lord. I will deal with Baal's minions!

• Tal Rasha: Come to the shield. It will protect us from the flames!

• Tal Rasha: Baal! May this shard be your eternal prison!

• Tal Rasha: It is done.

• Zoltun Kulle: Yes, but the Prime Evil's spirit is straining at its cage. The shard will not contain him for long.

• Tal Rasha: Then we must obtain another soulstone.

• Zoltun Kulle: Are you mad? Only an archangel's weapon can cleave the Worldstone! And this sliver will not make it to Arreat.

• Tal Rasha: Tyrael! He will have answers, I assure you. Baal will not roam free again. But, we can have this conversation later.

Trivia

This section contains facts and trivia relevant to this article.

• The events of the dungeon contradict the account of Baal's defeat in Book of Cain. In the work, it is stated that the fight took place underground, that Baal unleashed his power and caused all combatants to plummet into a network of subterranean caverns. In the dungeon itself, however, it takes place entirely on surface level.

• Of similar note, the book established ambiguity as to what was the cause of the soulstone failing to seal Baal; that some accounts state that Baal shattered the soulstone, while others state that Kulle's failure to handle it properly led to its breaking. The dungeon veers heavily towards the first account, as there is nothing in the dungeon to suggest that Kulle fails to properly utilize the soulstone, and Baal is seen breaking it.

• The dungeon depicts Baal's Minion as monsters. However, according to Diablo II lore, the minions were created explicitly for the Army of Destruction, which was raised hundreds of years after the events depicted in the dungeon.
