Before the fear lord Diavolo first awakened, Leoric was assigned by the High Council of Zakarum to come to the land of Khanduras to establish his own dynasty.
This devout Zakarum believer and member of the Transvican royal family came to this originally ownerless territory under the protection of a group of paladins, knights, and priests of the Order of Light, and established his own
's kingdom.
The capital he chose was Tristram, a land with a long history and full of curses.
This devout king did not know the true purpose of his coming here. He originally thought that the sect just wanted him to spread the faith in this land without one, but this eventually led to the complete destruction of his kingdom and his family.
What was destroyed here was not only the Khanduras dynasty established by Leoric and Leoric's family, but also the Transvikan royal family and the Kejistan Empire from which he was born.
The history of the Kejhistan Empire has a long history, even dating back to the time of the first Nephalem. It was also the first country established by the humans of Sanctuary.
Because of its unique geographical location in the center of Sanctuary, Kejistan even gave birth to the first clans of mages.
After the first generation of Horadrim monks, under the leadership of Tyrael, sealed the three demon kings who were exiled to Sanctuary, the soul stone that sealed the demon king of hatred, Mephisto, was handed over to Saka of Kejistan.
The Lamb Church took care of it and sealed the soul stone in Kurast, the capital of Kejistan.
After Aidan was transformed into a Dark Wanderer by Diavolo, he came to Kurast and freed his brother.
Although the second generation of heroes also came here and saved this city that was eroded by demons, the troubled Kegistan Empire still inevitably lost their proud capital.
A large number of nobles and kings fled to Kartium, the commercial center of the kingdom, and turned it into the new capital of the kingdom.
After the death of Hakan I, the last ruler of the empire, his successor Hakan II still ruled the entire kingdom, but his incompetence made the entire country become poorer and poorer, and Kaltim almost fell into the abyss.
.
But what's even worse is that Hakan II has been invaded by Belial, the Lord of Lies, and he is still just a child.
Now, the only person in the entire Kegistan Empire who still has the right to inherit the throne is Liya, the daughter of Aidan, the son of Leoric, the founder of the Kingdom of Khanduras and a member of the royal family of Kegistan.
"You said that I am the heir to the throne of the Kejistan Empire? My father is Leoric's son?" Liya was obviously hit hard by this fact.
It was really hard for her to imagine that she was just an ordinary little girl raised by Uncle Kane, how could she be related to the evil Skeleton King and the royal family, and now enjoy the right to inherit the throne of the Eastern Empire.
Deckard Cain on the side was relatively more receptive. Perhaps he had already anticipated Leah's life experience. After learning that Leah was Aidan's daughter, he quickly accepted it.
Liya is the heir to the Kejistan Empire.
However, the last Horadrim scholar still spoke: "But as far as I know, although the Kejistan Empire declined after the fall of Kurast and the capital was moved to Kardium, Emperor Hakan transferred the throne to
Passed to his successor Hakan II.
Before the death of this heir, Liya could only say that she had the right to inherit the throne, but was not the legitimate heir to the throne. After all, if Hakan II had descendants, his descendants would have higher inheritance rights than Liya.
"
"That's true, but Hakan II's body has been invaded by Belial, the King of Lies. His Majesty the Emperor is dead." Faced with Deckard Cain's doubts, the young man said that only the player
Just learned the information.
And this also allowed Deckard Cain to successfully break through the defense and exclaimed that it was impossible.
Liya didn't care to sigh about her life experience anymore and hurriedly comforted her uncle's mood. After Deckard Cain calmed down, she asked the young man who had just told the shocking truth: "What's the point of saying this?
The Kingdom of Khanduras has been destroyed, and it is impossible for me to inherit the throne of the Kejistan Empire. Apart from explaining my life experience, do these things have any effect?"
"Yes, if we support you to become the king of Khanduras again and inherit the throne of the Kejistan Empire." The young man told the main mission he had just received, and said somewhat helplessly: "This is not
It is the will of me and my country, but the mission issued by the great being. He requires us to help Liya ascend to the throne, inherit the Kejistan Empire, capture the King of Lies, and prepare the army for war to deal with the King of Sin, Ah.
Zmodan's Invasion."
"Azmodan? Are you saying that the army of hell will really invade?" After hearing the name of Azmodan, the demon king of hell, Deckard Cain's expression became very serious and he hurriedly
I looked through my notes, trying to find the corresponding part of the prophecy.
However, the young man just shook his head slightly and said: "The army of hell is not going to invade, but the invasion has already begun. The King of Lies subverted the largest empire of mankind, leaving the humans in Sanctuary with no way to reinforce the barrier fortress of Mount Arreat, and
The King of Sin leads his army to attack and invade the world."
After hearing the young man's affirmative words, Deckard Cain compared these words with the prophecies he had collected from ancient books. Although he was very reluctant, he had to admit that what the young man said was true.
fact.
This made him ask the young man: "Where are the angels? Aren't the angels involved in this war?"
"Imperius still wants to eliminate humans, a race born from a mixture of angels and demons, and hopes to completely destroy Sanctuary. Because of the departure of the Archangel of Wisdom, the Angel Council in the High Heaven can now be said to be almost a heroic Archangel.
One person has the final say, and even though the Archangel of Justice
Although he is on the side of human beings, after all, he disappeared for twenty years before and had minimal impact on this matter. He was even directly knocked down to heaven, which is the meteorite you see." The young man said something more.
The terrible situation made Deckard Cain's face become even more ugly.
But Deckard Cain also grasped an important fact, that is, the meteorite was the Archangel Tyrell of Justice who fell into Sanctuary, the only archangel willing to stand on the side of mankind.
