==Act One Dialogues==
Cain has no dialogues for the first two quests, even though it's possible to do his quest before completing the Den of Evil and Sisters' Burial Ground quests.
===[[The Search for Cain]]===
Cain is the target of this quest, hanging in a basket in Tristram. After a character rescues him, he returns to town and offers identification of items for free. If he is not rescued, he will show up in Act Two with a story about the rogues rescuing him, and charge 100 gold per item to be identified.
In multiplayer games created by characters who have already rescued Cain or moved to Act Two, Cain will be in town for even brand new characters, the Rescue Cain quest will be unavailable, and he will charge them to identify items. A character who has not yet rescued Cain must create their own game to do so, or join a game created by someone who has not yet completed that quest or moved on to Act Two.
'''Before Rescue'''
:''Help!''
===[[Sisters to the Slaughter]]===
Cain gives this quest, the final one in Act One.
'''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.''
===[[Khalim's Will (quest)|Khalim's Will]]===
Cain is the only NPC with dialogues pertaining to this quest.
He gives it after a character completes the Golden Bird quest, or finds one of Khalim's relics.
'''Activation'''
:''Never forget that your ultimate purpose here in Kurast is to destroy Mephisto. The ancient Horadrim imprisoned the Lord of Hatred inside the Guardian Tower that is located within the Temple City of Travincal.''
===[[The Blackened Temple]]===
Most NPCs have two sets of dialogues during this quest. The default is seen when a character has already completed the [[Quests_Act_Three#Quest_Four:_Lam_Esen.27s_Tome|Lam Esen's Tome quest]] and/or the [[Quests_Act_Three#Quest_Three:_Khalim.27s_Will|Khalim's Will quest]]. The alternate (more commonly seen by players) is delivered if those quests have not yet been completed (and the Black Book is still missing and/or the Zakarum are still a threat).
'''After Activation'''
:''Ormus tells me that the Council is comprised of tremendously powerful priests. It will be difficult to best them.''
===[[The Guardian]]===
Most NPCs have two sets of dialogues during this quest. The default is seen when a character has already completed the [[Quests_Act_Three#Quest_Four:_Lam_Esen.27s_Tome|Lam Esen's Tome quest]] and/or the [[Quests_Act_Three#Quest_Three:_Khalim.27s_Will|Khalim's Will quest]]. The alternate (more commonly seen by players) is delivered if those quests have not yet been completed (and the Black Book is still missing and/or the Zakarum are still a threat).
'''After Activation'''
:''You must reach Mephisto before his brothers do.''
