cameo=appearance. He decided to use his powers for good at the end of the book but that might mean that Kabraxis will consume him much like the lord of terror consumed the D1 hero.
That book took place during Diablo 2. Darrick was cursed by Kabraxis, but he also gained tremendous power. He had demonic healing and the sword, Stormfury. I have a feeling he make a cameo.
I'd guess it was more of a backup-plan. If their goal was to destroy it, couldn't Baal have done it himself? I can't see how Tyraels powers would in any way be any more suited to destroy the Worldstone compared to Baal.
To me, it seemed the original plan of corrupting the stone was to give Hell an advantage, only granting access to hell but limiting it still for Heaven. It also seems as if destroying it is a carefully considered action. Tyrael doesn't reveal any form of hints to suggest that he knows what will happen, and once again it seems unlikely that Baal would possess that knowledge.
Since most of us are pretty much assuming the Three will return, I don't think there's any real answer to that, other than Azmodan/Belial.
Tyrael is an angel. i don't think he'll have any way of controlling demons, at least not as long as two Lesser Evils still live.
Most likely just a plot device Blizzard used to get us out in the open
Here is my theory. Previously posted in a dead thread.
I think the prime evils wanted their soulstones destroyed so that they could return to hell and reclaim their throne. Before they returned to hell they needed to soften it up. What better way than to destroy the worldstone, unleashing a holy/unholy war between heaven and hell. When Belial and Azmodan were all but defeated they would make their return and become rulers of hell once again. I believe Tyrael tried to stop them but was overcome by corruption in the presence of two prime evils within tal rasha's tomb. He pretended to befriend you and led you to all of the prime evils and their soulstones in order to break them from the mortal realm. After killing baal Tyrael destroys the worldstone in order to set the plan into action. Tyrael is soon after banished to an icy tomb to spend all of eternity in a frozen sadness by the agrinis council or the ancients.
The summoner was just using the power of the arcane sanctuary, I doubt any power he seemed to have was his own. The Sanctuary is an extent of Horazon just like the armor was an extent of his brother, it can shift and rearrange at his will. The only thing I feel could have killed Horazon in his own element would be a prime evil. Seeing as how there were two in the vicinity at that time I don't see how its to far of a stretch to say that one of them paid him a visit.
The Summoner isn't weak- that's just the game play element (he can get killed in like 4 hits by a lvl 15.) And if the armor is just physical, then the Summoner's spells could easily take out Horazon. However, Horazon was a Horadrim and a conjurer, so I'm also sure that it wasn't quite that easy on the Summoner's part.
Unless you're basing his strength on something else, then this could all well be useless conjecture on my part
The protection of Bartuc's armor slew a great demonic leviathan on the open sea without its helm, turned it to stone and shattered it with a bolt of lightning. Hell feared the strength of Bartuc and Horazon was a sorcerer of at least equal prowess. There is no way any mere mortal could defeat him or even find him while wearing the enchanted armor of his brother.
I've been trying to unravel a mystery about the Warlord of Blood and the fake Summoner. When Horazon put on his brothers armor and said "the world should forget about us"(paraphrase) to it, and then warned the onlookers to never seek the Arcane Sanctuary again it tipped me off that he had not just turned to sand, he had teleported back to the Arcane Sanctuary. This all took place shortly before Diablo arrived in Aaranoch in Diablo 2. If Horazon truly returned to the Arcane Sanctuary then how did the clearly evil Summoner thrive there? If Horazon is the essence of the Arcane Sanctuary then so too must his brothers armor. The Summoner is an obvious weakling, so how did he overcome Horazon clad in his brothers armor? Some great ouside force must have overtaken him, and placed the summoner in control. The only two forces that were capable of that in the area were Diablo and Baal. Baal some how managed to summon Bartuc the Bloody, If his spirit was sealed away by Horazon, then how? Diablo must have extricated Bartuc while he searched for Baals tomb, IMO. Note that the summoner holds a key to unlock the pandemonium event.
