Cain fulfilled the same role in ''Diablo'', where he became known for his loquacious nature and rambling, overlong stories. This tendency of his was used as something of a joke in ''Diablo II'' and the fact that he was caged and tortured by the demons in Act One was something of a fan service for long-suffering ''Diablo'' fans, who after endlessly clicking through his stories in the first game had often wanted to stick him in a cage themselves. His usual verbal prompt in ''Diablo II'' is "Stay a while and listen." in homage to his wordy nature.
 
 
==Greetings==
:''Farewell.''
:''Goodbye.''
:''Good day.''
:''Good evening.''
:''Good morning.''
:''Good to see you.''
:''Greetings.''
:''Hello.''
:''I need your help.''
:''Stay awhile and listen.''
:''Yes?''
Cain gives this quest, the final one in Act One.
===Mission Assignment==='''Activation''':''It is certain that we face the demon queen, Andariel, who has corrupted the Rogue Sisterhood and defiled their ancestral Monastery. This does not bode well for us, my friend. '':''Ancient Horadric texts record that Andariel and the other Lesser Evils once overthrew the three Prime Evils -- Diablo, Mephisto and Baal -- banishing them from Hell to our world. Here, they caused mankind untold anguish and suffering before they were finally bound within the Soulstones. '':''Andariel's presence here could mean that the forces of Hell are once again aligned behind Diablo and his Brothers. If this is true, then I fear for us all. '':''You must kill her before the Monastery becomes a permanent outpost of Hell and the way east lost forever.''
'''After Activation''':''Diablo is heading east for some foul purpose. And the only passage east is through the Monastery gate. Obviously, Diablo summoned Andariel to block any pursuit. '':''For her part Andariel hopes to win Diablo's favor... the lesser demons are always vying for positions of power within the unholy hierarchy!''
===After Given==='''Return''':''It is clear that Andariel is acting on behalf of Diablo to prevent anyone from following him eastward. Her defeat would allow you to continue the pursuit. '':''Ancient lore has it that while Andariel was spawned in the Burning Hells, she is not fond of fire.''
===Success==='''Completion''':''This is a great victory indeed, but many more battles await. I will accompany you on your journey, lending what assistance I can... '':''Remember... Diablo is still out there, seeking something in the desert. I'm afraid that this nightmare will not end until you find what it is that he seeks.''
