Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred – Official Opening Cinematic

Nel is confronted by someone who claims to be a part of them, stating that Nel has seen what awaits and cannot escape their influence. This entity believes they are untouchable and can use Nel for their own purposes, even offering Nel a choice to agree. Nel, however, reveals they were trapped in the entity's mind, witnessing a horrifying vision of a darkened world consumed by human rage and hatred. In this chaos, Nel discovered the entity's greatest fear, which they intend to reveal. The entity dismisses this, questioning what they could possibly fear. Nel then recounts a prophecy about the weak becoming strong, lambs devouring their shepherd, and a spear of light piercing Hatred's heart, brought down by a son and daughter. The entity attempts to command Nel to stop and to let unrest rise, proclaiming themselves as the light and the way.
