FOREWORD.

This story is a fictional introduction to the Diablo IV story launch trailer created by Blizzard Entertainment: "By Three They Come". I crafted it as a presentation of my rogue character in the game to fit the story into the Diablo series aesthetic and lore.

Most of the lore included in this short story is part of the Diablo video game series universe, created by Blizzard Entertainment. I explicitly mention Sanctuary as the main location, and Inarius as an important character. Some sentences are extracted from the story launch trailer of Diablo IV: "By Three They Come". The link to that video is at the end of the story too. Aaren is my personal invention. And Caleb's name is my invention too, though the character is inspired by the cleric that appears in the mentioned video.

The purpose of this story is not related to profit causes, but to manage creatively the crafting of a story that may fit the Diablo IV aesthetic. Having said this, the reader must have in mind that this is fanfiction.

SOMETHING LOST, SOMETHING FOUND: A ROGUE'S TALE.

To my sister, thank you for supporting everything I do. To my brother, thank you for making me laugh when difficult moments arrive.

This is the story of a girl who became a rogue. A girl who had to survive evil.
