The Lesser Evils overthrew the Three Prime Evils and banished their spirit forms to the mortal realm. The demons Belial (The Lord of Lies) and Azmodan (The Lord of Sin) Fought to claim rulership of Hell during the absence of the Three Brothers.

The youngest brother - Diablo, the Lord of Terror - escaped to the West.''

Know ye that he will seek a body of youth and power to possess - one that is innocent and easily controlled. He will then arise to free his brothers and once more fan the flames of the Sin War...''
