Hey there! I’m glad you’re interested in Diablo lore. One of the most fascinating aspects of the world-building in Diablo is the conflict between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells. The eternal struggle between angels and demons has shaped the world of Sanctuary and influenced many of the key events in the series.
The creation of Sanctuary itself is a captivating story. It was hidden by the archangel Inarius and the demoness Lilith as a refuge from the Eternal Conflict. This world became the setting for the battles between the forces of Heaven and Hell, as well as the birthplace of humanity.
Characters like Tyrael, the Archangel of Justice, and Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred, add depth to the world of Diablo. Their motivations, alliances, and conflicts bring a richness to the lore that makes it so engrossing.
Overall, the world-building in Diablo is a masterclass in dark fantasy storytelling, blending elements of mythology, religion, and classic fantasy
