- Deckard Cain: [standard greeting] Hello, my friend. Stay awhile and listen.
- Kael Rills: [mortally wounded townsman outside the monastery of Tristram, at the start of every new game] Please, listen to me! The Archbishop Lazarus... he led us down here to find the lost prince. The bastard led us into a trap! Now everyone is dead... killed by a demon he called "The Butcher". Avenge us! Find this Butcher and slay him, so that our souls may finally rest... [dies]
- Player Character: Your death will be avenged!
- Player Character: [first entering the monastery] The sanctity of this place has been fouled!
- The Butcher: Ahh... fresh meat!
- Player Character: [after the Butcher is slain] The spirits of the dead are now avenged.
- The Skeleton King: The warmth of life has entered my tomb. Prepare yourself, mortal, to serve my Master for eternity! [laughs]
- Player Character: [after the Skeleton King is slain] Rest well, Leoric. I'll find your son.
- Warlord of Blood: My blade sings from your blood, mortal. And by my Dark Masters, it shall not be denied!
- Player Character: [after Warlord of Blood is slain] Your reign of pain is ended!
- Archbishop Lazarus: Abandon your foolish quest! All that awaits you is the wrath of my Master! You're too late to save the child. Now you'll join him - in Hell!
- Player Character: [after slaying Lazarus] Your madness ends here, betrayer!
- Narrator: [after defeating Diablo] The soulstone burns with hellfire, as an eerie red glow blurs your vision. Fresh blood flows into your eyes, and you begin to hear the tormented whispers of the damned. You have done what you knew must be done. The essence of Diablo is contained... for now. You pray that you have become strong enough to contain the demon, and keep him at bay. Although you have been fortified by your quest, you can still feel him, clawing his way up from the dark recesses of your soul. Fighting to retain control, your thoughts turn to the ancient mystic lands of the Far East. Perhaps there, beyond the desolate wastes of Aranoch, you will find an answer. Or perhaps... salvation!
