02 History

After finding Akara's shop, I approach her.

She doesn't seem to notice me when I approach, she seems deep in thought.

Juan: Excuse me, are you Akara?

She seems to come out of her thoughts when I speak to her, she turns to me.

Akara: So another one came.

I'm surprised he says that, I was hoping he would digest his game monologue or something.

Akara: You seem confused, come in, maybe I can clarify your doubts.

She turns around and walks into her shop, as I walk inside I can see various bottles, scrolls and inks, as I check what is in the shop Akara talks to me.

Akara: Take a seat.

She says as she points to a chair and turns around to make a cup of tea, she offers me a cup and then goes to sit on another chair with a cup of tea in her hand, she sighs and starts talking.

Akara: how much do you know about the world situation.

Juan: well, I only know that hell plans to invade this world.

I say after thinking for a moment, since from what I could see this I don't think it's the game, she shows signs of being a real person who thinks and feels like one, so I can sense that this world is real.

Akara: If it had been before, you probably wouldn't need more, but now you need to know more, so I'll start from the beginning.

Then he raises his hand and I see that a gray smoke appears between the two and in it figures begin to form.

Akara: At first, as you say, Diablo one of the major demons tried to invade the human world, but a hero appeared who tried to seal Diablo in his body and disappeared, after a while the demons reappeared, as well as also the presence of Diablo, we assume that Diablo is trying to invade again, but we found out too late and the harpy monastery was attacked and invaded, after a while a person came, a hero, he helped us kill the demons that roamed the area as well as kill Andariel.

In the smoke I could see a paladin following the whole story of the diablo 2 game while Akara kept telling, I kept listening to the story until I got to the end.

Akara: After the hero killed Baal, the archangel Tyrael appeared, told him to go through a portal to take him to a safe place and he would restart the world to save him, but the world would become more dangerous.

When she said the last sentence she was silent for a moment, I was confused, how is it that the whole history of the game is known, when I was about to ask she speaks again.

Akara: Tyrael did what he said and reset the world.

She puts on a very sad look when she said that.

Akara: but he didn't know that with that he condemned us.

She says with a bit of anger.

Akara: when restarting the world all the demons also reappeared, then the story repeated itself and it happened several times, different heroes from different tribes appeared, Amazons, Assassins, Necromancers, Barbarians, Paladins, Sorceresses and Druids, but the result it was always the same, it ended with the world restarting, getting more and more dangerous and we went into an endless loop where the world restarted and became more and more dangerous, but one day the heroes stopped appearing, we wait for the world would end since there was no one who could kill the major demons and prevent Baal from destroying it, that never happened, after a while the world restarted again, the strange thing is that only we entered and the areas where the heroes passed, only this small part entered the loop and as you can see, without the rest of the world we can hardly survive, there are hardly any places where it can be farmed, luckily, for some reason the demons ios could not enter the camp or the other bases in the different zones, so here we are locked up slowly dying, waiting for the world to restart again.

He finishes speaking and his face has a very sad look as if he has no hope.

My head was filled with a lot of information and I still couldn't digest it, but there was a question.

Juan: Excuse me, but what happened to Tyrael?

Before my comment she seems to react.

Akara: at first he tried to find a solution, but he couldn't find anything and couldn't bear the guilt for having condemned us, isolating himself in the stone of the world, right now we don't know how he is, some blame him and want to see him dead, but most of us understand that he did everything possible to save the world so we don't blame him, we just stand still trying to endure this hell.

She returns her gaze to the cup and stays in that position, I understood that she wants to be alone after telling me the whole story, so I leave her store and look for a place to sit so I can process all the information.

I did not think that this world was so lost, no wonder I noticed that the whole place had a very depressing atmosphere, I wanted to know why all this happened, according to the Cannon, Tyrael managed to Correct the world after the hero killed Baal, giving rise to to the Diablo 3 game, I don't want to let this world stay in this state since I love it so much, so in order to know what happened in this world I will have to reach the world stone or find an answer along the way.

I've already made up my mind, I'll help this world, I know there's a solution, otherwise I wouldn't be here right now, in order to achieve it I need to be stronger.

I get up and look for the entrance of the camp, when I left the camp I could see some letters that said, entering the swamp of blood, I looked at the corner of my interface and noticed that in the corner it said the name of the area, I also noticed that there was a version, I checked and it was version 1.14d, some may not know what this means, but for me it meant several things.

I re-enter the camp, open the chat where I write /Players 8 and I get a text from Players set to 8, as a response.

As I understand this increases the difficulty of the game and suits for 8 players, although this is intended for a group of people to play together, I use it to play alone, so all the experience that should go to 8 players goes to me and I level up quickly.

Feel free to use this cheat as I wanted to level up quickly and I'm not worried about dying, I go back outside the camp and start exploring, after a while in the distance I can see something moving and I see a furry animal, I can see it clearly since the area was all flat, I can see mountains in the distance, but everything else was flat, I approach slowly trying not to let the animal notice my presence, as I approached I could see a text floating in its head that showed its name, "rat de la peñola", it was an animal that had a height of 1 meter, was bent over standing on two legs and its body is full of spikes, I know that this beast attacks from a distance attacking with its spikes.

I kept getting closer and prepared my wand in my hand, when I was close, the rat seemed to notice my presence and started throwing its needles at me, they were so fast that I didn't have time to dodge, I felt some pangs in my body and wanted to scream in pain but suddenly my vision went dark.

When my consciousness returned, I could still feel the pain of being pierced by those needles and I couldn't help but scream, some people gathered around me to see what was happening, after a while the pain subsided and I started to calm down, I could see that there were still some people around me, there was also Akara standing there watching me.

Calming down completely and regaining control of my body, I started to get up and Akara came up to me and asked me.

Akara: What happened?

Juan: I died and I couldn't bear the pain.

I say in a hoarse voice, she shoots me a curious look.

Akara: How strange, the previous heroes didn't feel anything when they died, you seem to be a special case.

When he tells me that, my mind went into chaos, wondering why am I the only one who feels this pain, I would prefer not to continue with this if I have to continue suffering like this.

Juan: how lucky they are, I wouldn't want them to feel what I felt.

Akara nods her head and turns to go back to her tent.

I go to the river to wash my face and drink some water, I sweat a lot from the pain and my throat is very irritated from screaming, after drinking water and washing myself I look for a place to rest, all this happened very quickly and I feel very tired.

I found a corner where I could lie down, thinking again about everything that happened, without realizing it I fell asleep.

when I woke up I could see that the sun was rising, it seems that I slept a lot, I wake up completely refreshed, it seems that this body does not feel hungry, this information makes me very happy, since from what Akara said, food is something that is missing in this world and I don't think I have the time to worry about it, after knowing this I feel like meditating to find a way to kill that rat.

I check my inventory and notice that there is nothing in there, it seems that I have to go to recover my body like in the game.
