		+	The Quest for Cain
		+
		+
		+	It was raining outside the tent. It seemed to rain all the time around this place. Gulzar was complaining about moss growing on his shoes. GotDex smiled and suggested that maybe he shouldn't stand around so much during the fights and maybe moss wouldn't grow on his feet. GotDex was working on her journal. Things sure were moving fast these days. Out of all the battles she had been in recently, she had come across seven small bosses leading packs against her. The powers these bosses wielded against her were greater than any she had seen before. She wasn't happy at the number that were immune to physical attack. She had a feeling that if anything she would see more of this in the future.

		+
		+	Well, there was not getting around it, if this Cain fellow was to be found, GotDex was going to get wet today. She and Gulzar packed up and headed out into the rain. Across the cold plains, she was told the stoney field lay. Taking the waypoint into stoney field, GotDex started clearing the area of monsters and demons again. She didn't know where they came from, but they kept coming back.
		+
		+	The weapons she found in this area were amazing also. She came across another great bow today. GotDex thought long and hard about using this wonderful weapon, but she was very attached to her bow and was very comfortable using it so she decided to stay with her own weapon. One day she might try a new one, but not today.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110602.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	Reaching the end of the cold plains, GotDex and Gulzar found the stoney field. It seems word of her approach got her before she did. No less than three packs of monsters where there to greet her. It was a long terrible battle but in the end, GotDex had slain the demons again. Having cleared the entrance of stoney field, GotDex thought that the area nearby would be clear, so she started to scout the area. This was a mistake as more bosses and minions came at her.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110603.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	More fighting ensued and again GotDex prevailed. The evil seemed determined to get her today.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110604.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	Even after all that fighting, it still wasn't over. More bosses waited after these. GotDex lost count, but she faced 7 to 9 bosses in a row before she was able to lay claim to an area of stoney field.
		+
		+	After that, finding the waypoint for stoney field wasn't too hard. GotDex had been told that the stone circle was guarded by a very dangerous pack of monsters. She needed to find the circle and the entrance to the underground passage before leaving this area.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110605.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	As it turned out, the circle of stones were nearby and while GotDex knew there was a pack of monsters in the area, they didn't seem to be much of a problem. In fact as she was going through the bodies after the battle, she found the body of the boss in the circle of stones, an arrow sticking out of his eye socket. She didn't remember shooting the arrow or seeing him fall.
		+
		+	The next thing was to find the underground passage to the dark wood beyond. In a hole coming up out of the ground she found it.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110606.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	This place was dark, it was hard to see the attacks before they happened. In searching another group of bodies, GotDex found a small charm. She had several like it, but this one gave her more life than any she had.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110608.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	The demons and monsters seems endless today, Gulzar and the spirit fighter kept the waves of monsters at bay so GotDex could keep the arrows flying.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110609.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	GotDex had started to get used to this dark place. The dangers were many, but she felt she had an understanding of the place and could clear it out if necessary to find the dark wood. Entering a new area, arrows came flying out of the darkness at her. GotDex quickly fell back and started setting up a defensive perimeter and started shooting. Her spirit got taken out very quickly and her decoy was almost useless also. She knew she had to very careful to survive this battle. Back and forth the battle raged. Every time GotDex tried to advance into the area, she would be pushed back by the arrows. After a long time she started to feel that there weren't as many arrows coming at her as before. She pressed into the area again and finally identified her foe. She saw that this monster would not be effected by the poison her charms gave her arrows. She fought to keep the leader at bay while she got the minions down. When the last minion went down, she was able to turn her attention to the boss itself. It was still a very hard fight, but without the minions to protect it, GotDex was able to get rid of this horror forever!
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110610.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	After that fight, GotDex was ready to leave this place. Yet, more evils stood in her way.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110611.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	GotDex was weary, tired from all these long battles. After dispatching another group of monsters she looked over the dead bodies and couldn't believe her eyes!!
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110612.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	She had heard of great magical items such as this, but she didn't think she would ever hold one herself! She would have to look over her gear, but she knew that she would be using this great hat in the future.
		+
		+	At last, she found the end of the passage and came back out into the open air. More evil surrounded her, but after the fights in the dark passage, it wasn't that bad. At least until she found the tree she had been looking for.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110613.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	Treehead was an evil and deadly foe. GotDex stayed as far away as she could from him. It was another long fight, but as she was fast and nimble, Treehead fell in the end.
		+
		+	The Dark Wood waypoint was found and GotDex now had what she needed to try to find Cain.
		+
		+	Back at the stone circle, GotDex was able to cause a red portal to open so she could travel to another place. GotDex couldn't believe the destruction she saw in this place. An entire town had been destroyed. She didn't know how anyone could still be alive here. Monsters still occupied this place. The fights were many, but not the worst she had seen this day.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110615.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	There was one demon that was more difficult than most.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110616.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	It was another long fight, but the monster was slow, so GotDex never was that worried about the outcome.
		+
		+	[img]http://lovemymac.net/d2pics/04110617.jpg[/img]
		+
		+	After dispatching the demon, GotDex found Cain caged in the center of town. Gulzar got the cage lowered to the ground and Cain was set free! GotDex and Gulzar went back to town to learn what knowledge this stranger held.
