《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….

Vemödalen: From The Other Side
War is coming - And when it comes - And where it comes - And whence it comes - The living shall envy the dead One to carry their sword in the name of their goddess and lady, to protect their land and people against the threat of the wicked. They know their path to be the righteous one. One to roam the land, hunting for all apparitions, and be scorned by man and beast alike. They know their path to be an arduous one. One to wander the realm in search of power, to protect themselves and what they believe in. They know their path to be the only one. Writers note: The first chapter will set the standard in terms of mood for the remainder of the story. It also comes to no surprise to me that half the people who read the first part stop reading any further. It has quite a bit of the good ‘ol ‘ultra-violence’ mixed with a great deal of realism. As much as I could fit into it from my own knowledge and experience in the elite forces. The first few chapters will be slow, after, but starting from ‘Restless Destroyer’ the remainder of the world will start to open up, and when we hit ‘Adronitis’ the prologue is largely finished. The novel is well thought out and filled with hidden lore, culture, history. So even if my word choice appears random – it’s not. There is a reason why these chapters take as long as they do. Vermodalen is fantasy adventure, with magic and heroics in an as realistic setting as I could fit. Things are rarely what they seem, and the ugly nature of people bleed through the letters at the turn of every page. I hope you can give this story a fair chance, even if it isn’t immediately to your taste. Lastly, english isn't my first language. It isn't my second one either. So, if you find errors in grammer and spelling, wordplay and sentance building, do let me know, and you will be rewarded by a surge of dopamine that will be released inside your brain for helping someone whom you haven't even seen or heard.
