Hm yeah I think we got the main, opening segment of the storyline figured out except for the details.
Tyrael should remain good, why does he have to become a villain just cause he destroyed the worldstone? There was no other choice, he had to. So it doesn't make him bad or corrupt.
Well, he doesn't have to be corrupted and I agree that Sanctuary needs a good guy. Although, I personally like the idea that the corruption that Baal instilled within the Worldstone was unleashed and went into Tyrael when he shattered it. I'd like to think that Inarius built a fail safe of sorts within his creation as a curse so to speak on whoever destroyed it because of his fears for Lilith's ambitions.
I think you're reading a bit much into it. "Fiery Being" is probably descriptive writing and should be taken lightly in a full literal sense. It does not necessarily mean that something was in the falling comet (ala Superman).
What I get from the words are what we honestly already know. Sanctuary was protected by the Worldstone. Tyrael destroyed the Worldstone (Corrupted by Baal) thus removing it's protective barrier. The comet falls as a warning sign and symbolizes things to come. The war between Heaven and Hell is about to be fought fully upon the face of Sanctuary.
I personally think the "Failing Luminaries" aspect means that the angels (Beings of Light, hence Luminaries) who have been continuing to try and hold Sanctuary within their own protective domain are failing because something stronger than we have dealt with before is about to be unleashed.
This leads to the Hydra pics. I have two theories on who is in the pic.
1) Belial which is sometimes represented as a serpentine being could fit into the "Hydra" persona. He is also a Crown Prince of Hell (Lesser evil) who at last knowledge controlled half of hell due to the civil war in hell versus Azmodan. I think in the past 20 years he finally won the war in hell and absorbed the powers of the Prime Evils (or at least grew in power from slaying Azmodan) so that now he can unleash his wrath upon Sanctuary. Some theories show Belial as the father of Diablo if you take it that Big D is the representation of Lucifer.
2) Diablo himself has been reborn, but during his rebirth he absorbed Mephisto and Baal as well. This fusion of the Prime Evils has thus created a being of such immense power that even the Princes of Hell will not stand against him and thus with the full backing of Hell's minions the very foundations of Heaven begin to tremble as he makes his way to Sanctuary to destroy the mortal world on his way to destroy the High Heavens themselves.
I really want to see Tyrael as a fallen angel as I think it makes perfect sense from him destroying the corrupted Worldstone, but I find it hard to fathom Blizzard letting Heaven's Champion become such an amazing villian.
Gotta love speculation...
