 ==Background==
-After [[Baal]] finally had been captured by the [[Horadrim]], the [[Soulstone]] provided by [[Archangel]] [[Tyrael]] had been shattered.
+The canyon was likely called something else before [[Tal Rasha]] and fellow [[Horadrim]] mages were buried there, since the tombs were ancient even before they reached the location. The tombs themselves were likely called something else as well.
-[[Archangel]] Tyrael appeared before the men and led them toward seven ancient tombs deep in the desert. There the men were instructed to build a binding stone etched with runes of containment no mortal could decipher. They magically crafted unbreakable chains to secure the binding stone to the chamber's walls. Tal Rasha ordered to be chained and bound to the stone. To everyone's astonishment, Tyrael jammed the shattered Soulstone into Tal Rasha's chest, allowing Baal's spirit to flood into his body as host. Forever chained in an eternal fight with the demon's spirit.

-The seven identical tombs filled with perils in the [[Canyon of the Magi]] housed the resting places of six other powerful Horadric mages. They also serve to confuse anyone looking to set Baal free. The canyon is located somewhere in the [[Aranoch]] desert, in the vicinity of [[Lut Gholein]].
+After finding and capturing [[Mephisto]] in [[Kehjistan]]'s jungles, burying him under what later became [[Kurast]], the Horadrim chased Baal across the ocean to the Western continent, in to the [[Aranoch]] desert. Tal Rasha presumed Baal was heading north toward [[Scosglen]], but mysteriously the demon changed its path and took refuge within the desert city of [[Lut Gholein]].
-Eventually, Baal gained the upper hand but could not free himself from the Binding Stone as he was weak and required the Soulstone in his chest to be removed.
+Tal Rasha ordered his team to hold the attack and to patiently await for Baal to continue his escape. Three days later, Baal fled Lut Gholein heading to the north, as Tal Rasha had predicted.
-The [[Wanderer]] arrived with [[Marius]] to free him. [[Tyrael]] intervened and stopped the Wandered, but Marius was fooled by an illusion created by Baal, and freed the Prime Evil, which in turn helped the Wanderer chain Tyrael to the Binding Stone instead. A band of adventurers found and freed Tyrael in their hunt for the Wanderer.

-What happened to the Tomb of Tal Rasha after Tyrael was freed is unknown.
+In a desperate attempt, Baal hurled a spell at Tal Rasha unsuccessfully. Unharmed, but at a price, Tal Rasha rose from the earth to find the Soulstone given to him by Tyrael had shattered into small shards. The men pressed their attack and defeated Baal. Tal Rasha walked toward Baal's battered body and slashed his throat jamming the largest Soulstone shard into his open wound. Baal's spirit was sucked into the shard, trapping the demon.
