Dunno if this was posted yet or discussed, but I began to wonder about this script/poem I read, and it made sense, alot of sense:
"And a child will cradle Terror in his breast as the heart of man falls under the shadow.
A Wanderer will pass through the ancient lands trailing chaos in his wake.
The Three Brothers will be reunited as the mortal world trembles before their might.
And so it was foretold that the Three, once reunited, would be shattered again --
And the last of them would set his sights on the holy mount. The warnings held that Their defeat would be illusory - that the final gambit had yet to be played . . ."
And now at last the storm surges forth from the southlands, and the hand of Destruction Reaches out to undo the workings of the Ancients. The tides of Hell surge - ready to smash Down upon the shores of the mortal world - to drown the guilty and the innocent alike."
- Excerpt from the Prophecies of the Final Day

"The comet carries a dark omen in its fiery being and it calls the heroes of Sanctuary To defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells – And even the failing luminaries of the High Heavens itself."
- Excerpt from the Diablo 3 official website
"And a child will cradle Terror in his breast the heart of man falls under the shadow."
Child is Prince Abrecht: Diablo failed into corrupting King Leoric, thus went to more easier prey, the King's own son
"A Wanderer will pass through the ancient lands trailing chaos in his wake."
The Wanderer is Diablo himself, in full control of the Hero who defeated him, journeying eastward to reunite with his brothers: Mephisto and Baal
"The Three Brothers will be reunited as the mortal world trembles before their might."
Diablo has freed Baal, together, travelling East into Kurast, finally meeting Mephisto in his Durance of Hate
"And so it was foretold that the Three, once reunited, would be shattered again --"
All three of the Prime Evils were defeated by mortal heros of mankind
"And the last of them would set his sights on the holy mount. The warnings held that Their defeat would be illusory - that the final gambit had yet to be played . . ."
The last of the Prime Evils to be defeated was Baal: while Mephisto and Diablo were trying to reunite Hell, he went on a conquest for the Worldstone on Mount Arreat, and if Baal succeeds, which he did, their defeat will be just an illusion from their true plan which takes place in Diabl o3
"And now at last the storm surges forth from the southlands, and the hand of Destruction Reaches out to undo the workings of the Ancients. The tides of Hell surge - ready to smash Down upon the shores of the mortal world - to drown the guilty and the innocent alike."
Baal reaches Mount Arreat and seeks the Worldstone chamber, with his demonic army going southwards and battling the barbarian tribe of Harrogath.
When the hero(s) reach the Worldstone Chamber and defeat Baal, they were too late. The Worldstone was corrupted and Tyrael was forced to destroy it: thus assuring Evil's return into the future (Diablo 3)
"The comet carries a dark omen in its fiery being and it calls the heroes of Sanctuary To defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells – And even the failing luminaries of the High Heavens itself."
The comet is a warning from the Archangel Tyrael about the upcoming threat of the Burning Hells and the High Heavens. The Worldstone now gone, the forces of the High Heavens 'failing luminaries' and from the Burning Hells 'rising powers' prepare to take their unending war into the Sanctuary with no resistance. Basically meaning that Angels and Demons will wage war upon the world and mankind led by Tyrael will try to stop both sides, or atleast take their war elsewhere
