The Lord of Destruction would have razed all humanity from Sanctuary if not for the Archangel Tyrael’s sacrifice. One of the three Prime Evils and corruptor of the Worldstone, Baal revels in absolute annihilation whether he incites or inspires it. The Fahiran dynasty lasted generations before dissidents shattered Fahir’s scepter-the symbol of his power-and the Shassar Sea became, by all accounts, impossible to rule. His empire was marked by the grisly sacrifice of blood relatives, and cursed longevity rituals for the benefit of aristocrats and the king, who presented himself as a living deity. The undying monarch Fahir dominated Shassar long before it became a wasteland. When her wickedness was ended, she was interred in the castle's tower, for she could not be truly killed. As she grew older, she bathed in the blood of hundreds of captives to retain her ebbing youth. The Countess was raised in an isolated, forested castle in Khanduras.

It's 2023, and really about time that we finally had a Lady Diablo, but I do wonder if we will ever 'see her in a crown' due to her pronounced horns. Given the imperious and confrontational lyrics of 'You Should See Me in a Crown,' I would assume that, in this context, it's from the perspective of, or meant to be associated with, Diablo 4's box art villain Lilith, who's like a Lady Diablo, Diablo's cousin or sister or something. This message may actually be referring to the game's robust character creator and varied build options.

We are also informed by the trailer that 'Hell welcomes all'-a nice message of love and acceptance from the realm of metaphysical torment in a time of increasing social tension. We get to peep all those cool class powers, and I remain a fan of the Druid's bear form despite it being, apparently, un-bear-able for my colleague Chris Livingston in the first beta.
