===Marius Freeing Baal Transcript===
[[Diablo]] arrived to the seven ancient tombs in the [[Canyon of the Magi]] under the guise of the [[Dark Wanderer]], possessing the body of the hero that sought to defeat him, and with [[Marius]] following him arrived to the vault holding [[Baal]] trapped in.<br><br>
'''Marius''': "My companion drew in the dank, cold air of the tomb. It seemed to...strengthen him. I stood in the doorway between light and dark, what was left of my sanity implored me not to enter. But that voice was just a whisper now. As we worked our way down deeper and deeper into the crypt, I began to see a change in my companion. He seemed to be gaining strength. I could hardly see in the gloom, but my companion seemed to know the way. We came at last to a great hall."<br><br>
(The Dark Wanderer screamed like an unholy creature from beyond this world. His face skin shifted oddly, as if transforming.)<br><br>
'''Marius''': "It was then I realized my companion hadn't been gaining strength. He had been losing what was left of his humanity. He moved at demonic speed, and then ... and then you appeared."<br><br>
Before the Dark Wanderer could reach the soulstone on Tal Rasha's chest, Tyrael held his hand with his long wings and engaged in combat, plunging into the abyss below.<br><br>
'''Tyrael''': "Stop! The beast contained herein shall not be set free. Not even by you."<br><br>
'''Baal''': "Look, what have been done to me! Release me! Help me! Hurry, please, hurry!"<br><br>
Baal lured Marius with a facade image, asking for help. Marius could only see a poor man bounded by chains, impaled by an object on the chest. Tyrael's gaze turned around toward Marius.<br><br>
'''Tyrael''': "NO !!! Don't do it!"<br><br>
Marius grabbed the shattered soulstone shard and pulled it free from Tal Rasha's body.<br><br>
In the blink of an eye, Tyrael released the Dark Wanderer and held Marius high above the ground.<br><br>
'''Tyrael''': "Fool, you have just ensured the doom of this world. You cannot even begin to imagine what you set in motion this day. Go to the Temple of Light, in the eastern city of Kurast. There you will find the gate to Hell open before you. You must find the courage to step through that gate, Marius. Take the stone you hold to the Hellforge where it will be destroyed. Now run !!! Take the stone and run!"<br><br>
From behind, Baal wrapped his tentacles around Tyrael's arm, letting his grasp on the [[Azureblade]] set loose.<br><br>
'''Marius''': "What choice did I have? I ran."<br>
