Once, at the beginning of time, the forces of Order and Chaos came together in an eternal battle to decide the fate of everything. Now this struggle has come to the world of mortals ... and no man, demon or angel will stand aside ... In Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, you will return to follow the path of Baal, the last of the rulers of Evil, to the north, to the Mountains of the Barbarians. Moving along with the hordes of demonic minions, Baal seeks to destroy the mighty Stone of Peace, which protects mortal lands from the forces of Hell. Although your hero also destroys the vile Baal, the Stone of Peace has been defiled. To prevent chaos, Archangel Tyrael decides to destroy the Stone of Peace. For him, this is the best solution to all problems. The Archangel sends the Hero to the city of Horrogat through the portal, and he himself destroys the Stone of Peace. Since then, no one saw Tyrael.
