The Search for Cain
- Who :
This quest is given to you by Akara
- Where :
This quest takes place in the Dark Wood, the Stony Field and in Tristram
- How :
Find a tree in the Dark Wood, activate the cairn stones in the Stony Field, and bring Cain back to the Rogue Encampment from Tristram
- Details :
Akara will give you this quest. She will tell you that Cain is being held as a prisoner in Tristram and you have to go get him back to the rogue encampment.
First of all you have to locate and touch the Tree of Inifuss which is found in the Dark Wood. To get to the Dark Wood, leave the Rogue Encampment and enter the Bloor Moor, continue to the Cold Plains, the Stony Field, go through the Underground Passage and use the exit to the Dark Wood found on the first level of the cave.
When you find the Tree of Inifuss you will likely be stormed by Treehead Woodfist who guards the Tree of Inifuss. He is an extra fast and extra strong unique monster. This doubles his attack rate and increases his damage and to-hit percentage by 25. No easy match at all. The Tree of Inifuss is also surrounded by Fallen Shamans, Fallen ones and other pesky monsters, so watch out.
After you've killed them all, click on the tree to get a scroll. Return this scroll to Akara in the Rogue Encampment so she can read it and find out in what order you have to activate the Cairn Stones found in the Stony Field.
To get to the Stony Field, leave the Rogue Encampment into the Blood Moor, continue to the Cold Plains and finally into the Stony Field.
When you reach the Cairn Stones, make sure you activate them in the correct order as stated on the scroll. Right-click it to read it. When you have done that, a red portal will appear leading to Tristram, so go on through and get ready to sweat!
You now arrive at Tristram. Here you'll encounter many monsters like the Goatmen, Fallen Shamans, Fallen Shaman Champions, Fallen Ones, Zombies, Skeletons and more!
You will also meet Griswold, the lovely blacksmith from Diablo I, but unfortunately the evil in Tristram has cursed him, so he is now an enemy! He is very tough, so be prepared for a hard fight!
When you've killed them all, click on Cain's cage which is found in the middle of Tristram to release him. He makes a townportal and leaves immediately, so you don't have to worry about protecting him.
Before leaving Tristram you should find and click on Wirt's dead body, the little pesky boy who charged incredibly high prices for item in Diablo I. When you click on him he will drop a nice amount of gold for you to pick up together with some other items. Make sure you pick up his leg, because it is used to activate an easter egg later in the game, and it's rather funny, so make sure you PICK IT UP :)
When you leave Tristram, make your way back to the Rogue Encampment for your rewards. Talk to Akara for a magic ring, and talk to Cain and he will identify all your unidentified items for free throughout the whole game!
ps : If you choose to skip this quest, Cain will automatically be rescued by the rogues when the sixth quest is activated, but he will no longer identify items for free.. Think about that before you choose not to save him.
