《In-game Item Storekeeper》Chapter 79 - Cain & Eamon (Diablo III)
Advertisement
Cain continues to converse with Eamon with a cup of water in his hand.
Cain: Some days before you were brought here, Shang came to me with an interesting assumption after I made him remember as many lores as he could.
Eamon: Oh, what did he ask?
Cain: It is related to the Tomb of Tal Rasha.
Eamon: The Tomb of Tal Rasha? The tomb where the Lord of Destruction, Baal is sealed?
Cain: That very tomb that took the lives of my leader and brothers.
Eamon: So what about the tomb?
Cain: The devices we set in the tomb are supposed to warn us of any demons in the tomb but Aidan, no, I should say, Diablo himself enters without triggering any of the devices.
Eamon: Could the prince was still human at that time?
Cain: Would any sane human graverobber come digging when they saw the symbol of the Horadrim in the tomb? I believe there are none. That is the reason why only the dead walks in there. I don’t think the prince Aidan is human anymore after I hear his description from the heroes who took him down.
Eamon:....
Cain: Shang assumed that if Aidan is no longer human nor demon, then the only race he has become would be the Nephalem.
Eamon: That is nonsense. If Aidan is a nephalem, then King Leoric himself would not be mad by now.
Cain: Of course, it couldn’t be King Leoric. What if Queen Asylla herself is one?
Cain says as he slowly walks over to another table and pulls the cover, revealing the glowing body and head of Queen Asylla which eyes have been blindfolded.
Eamon: Queen Asylla! How did you get her remains?
Eamon says loudly as he recognizes the head.
Cain: I can only say my successor was lucky to find them.

Cain says as he covers both the head and body.
Cain: If what Shang says is true, then Leah is truly in danger.
Eamon: What words?
Cain: Shang says Aidan should be the best host for Diablo but he is a warrior which limits him from unleashing his full powers. Diablo most likely need a better host after Aidan’s death.
Eamon: I don’t see how Leah is in danger. Unless her mother… Deckard, don’t tell me…
Cain: Her mother is a practitioner of magic…. And I fear she might be involved in it.
Cain says as he recalls suspecting Adria of lying to him about Aidan.
Eamon: She is the last of the royal family, Deckard! You cannot let this happen!
Eamon exclaimed.
Cain: As If I would let that happen, Eamon. She is not only the last of the royal family, she is also the only family member I have left.
Cain says after he takes his final gulp of water.
Eamon: And your plan?
Cain: Find all the help I could get.
Cain raises from his seat and reaches out for some paper.
Eamon: That’s all you can do?
Cain: That’s all we can do.
Cain says as he dips the feather quill into the ink bottle.
Words can be seen from above as Cain continues writing.
Cain’s words: To my dear Askari friend, I am afraid it is time for your return….

This is the story of Alyssa and Mireille, two girls in a world of Magic. They are forced to leave their homes by differing circumstances and must come to terms with their own magical abilities and the problems those bring. Alyssa is hunted for what she is, while Mireille is not certain what and who she wants to be but drifting along is not an option when her life is on the line. They live in a world that is torn by strife where humanity is not the pinnacle of existence. This is a world of high fantasy. It is my first written story. I am a non-native speaker. I will not go out of my way to shock people but the content will at times be traumatizing for sensitive people. At the moment I would guess the story to be PEGI 16 perhaps? It's light on the profanity at least? Cover from unsplash.com
