Welcome back! I am so happy that people like my story! :) But the thing is only a few people have reviewed... Is it just me or has fanfiction.net been becoming less and less popular? ahh well. I don't give a shit if at least a couple of people read my story. Its better than showing it to my friends and them laughing at me. By the way, Will's hometown is not Tristram I am merely making fun of the Tristram and Rogue Encampment characters. I haven't played Diablo 1 but I'm thinking about incorporating books that teach skills that Will will buy during his adventure from Akara or maybe find on the ground.

Will sighed. He had been tracking through this damn forest for days. He needed rest badly as he had fought many demons and corrupted animals such as quill rats brutes and carnies (you know, circus folk. I had to say this in case there were people who lived in a box that happened to have a computer with internet access was reading this). He pulled back on his bow and let the arrow fly, it imbedded itself into the skull of a Fallen, it screamed as it died.
"Damnit, when will I get to this Rogue Encampment place?" he asked himself as he stretched his weary arms.
As the day progressed on and Will found himself wading into an ever-thickening demon area as he made his way east. Suddenly he saw a pack of demons surrounding a figure that was valiantly fighting them off.
"I'll help you!" he yelled.
"Thanks!" he grunted in reply.
The man was wearing some sort of armour that Will had never seen before. He also wielded a spear. In a few minutes all the demons lay dead at their feet. "I again thank you for your assistance, now I must take my leave." the figure said.
"But, but, I don't know your name or who you are." said Will.
"I am a Necromancer and that is all you need to know."
"WOW COOL! A Necromancer! Hey, wanna be my friend and come on a journey with me?" said the enthusiastic youngster.
"No, us Necromancers stay by ourselves and the only things we have around are our summons." he replied.
"Cool, I've never seen Necromancer summons before! Can you show me some?"
"No" The Necromancer said
"Please?"
"NO"
"Hahahaha, I bet you can't even raise stuff!" Will taunted.
"Well, well, I... Why you little pipsqueak!!!" The Necromancer roared.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Will yelled.
This event led to the Necromancer chasing Will all the way to the Rouge Encampment.
"There you have reached your destination now leave me in peace!" said the Necromancer.
"No I haven't this is the Rouge Encampment, I need to go to the Rogue Encampment!" he stated.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IM GONNA KILL YOU!"
"AHHHHHHH!"
Eventually the two unlikely friends had reached the Rogue Encampment (they had become friends along the way).
"Lets explore the Encampment." said Will
"Why not."
The two split up and began to look around the Rogue Encampment. Will headed over in the direction of Kashaya and Ukudo went over to Gheed (The Necromancer revealed his name as Ukudo on their travels).
"Ooh a Necromancer. I hoped I'd never have to lay my eyes on your ki..." Gheed began. He had been knocked out by a very pissed of Ukudo. "Now, now, now. Lets see why my little friend Gheed has for me. Oh goody some wands, now I'll just put those in my pocket and have a look at them later."
"Halt, who are you stranger." said a very uptight Rogue (Kashaya).
"I have been sent here by this angel dude to get rid of some Demon dudes." Will replied.
"Do you mean to say that Tyreal sent you to get rid of the three Prime Evils?" she asked.
"Yup that's them."
"Well hero, it will take more that killing a few monsters out in the wilderness to gain my trust."
"Ummmm, we weren't talking about monsters in the wilderness, I was talking about the three Prime Evils!!!" he said. But again he was ignored (this seems to happen a lot).
"You should go and see Akara for your first quest." Kashaya informed him.
"Ok."
As Will looked around for Akara he saw a woman of immense stature. "I wonder if that could be Akara..." he wondered. "Excuse me, are you Akara?"
The woman laughed. "No good sir, I am Charsi the blacksmith here."
"Charsi?" he muttered. "That's really strange. At home we have a blacksmith named Farsi."
She shrugged. "Coincidence. Akara's tent is over there and if you need to buy or repair weapons and armour come here!"
As he walked over to Akara's tent he saw Ukudo strolling around with a huge grin on his face. "What have you been up to Ukudo?" he inquired.
"Nothin' much." Ukudo replied.
"C'mon I know you've been up to something when you have that look on your face..."
"Ok, what happened is that the weird guy Gheed insulted me and my fellow Necromancers so I knocked him out and well, he had some really cool looking wands and I just well errr... Borrowed 'em." he said sheepishly.
"Ukudo, put them back now, it's dishonest to steal things."
"I'm a Necromancer, I'm the very image of dishonesty. Anyway Gheed's a rat and deserved to have things stolen from him!" he said hotly.
"Weeeeeeeeell in that case... Hehe. I better see if there is anything worth err... Borrowing!"
"That's the sprit!" exclaimed Ukudo
After 'borrowing' equipment from Gheed they found Akara's tent. She greeted them and told them about how they had to cleans the Den of Evil of all the monsters inside. Will was very quick to accept the mission. Before they went Will asked Akara a question.
"Akara?" he asked
"Yes my child?" she replied.
"I have this really good armour and scimitar I err... found. But I don't know what they do. Can you help me?"
"Certainly, what you need are some scrolls of identify. I shall get some for you free of charge, I will also provide you with a scroll of town portal."
"I need to identify the wands I found too!" piped in Ukudo.
After identifying their items which were as follows; for Will; 'hard leather armour of equilibrium' (faster hit recovery) and 'deadly scimitar of vileness' (enhanced damage and poison damage). And the wands that Ukudo 'found' were; 'yew want of the apperentus' (faster cast rate and +2 to teeth and +1 to bone armour) and 'grim wand of sorcery' (more mana and +3 to raise skeleton and +2 to skeleton mastery) the two heroes set off to do their quest.
"MWHAHAHAHAHA!!! I NOW AM THE MOST POWERFUL NECROMANCER ALIVE!!!" he said as he summoned his bone armour around him. As they went towards the Den of Evil he summoned three skeletons and if he tried to summon more one of his other skeletons would fall to pieces and die.
The heroes reached the den of evil and went inside. Will was weary of all movement in the cave. Ukudo was still laughing like a maniac so Will poked Ukudo with one of his throwing knives that made him shut up. The heroes reached a band of fallen with a shaman wearing a grass skirt and holding a gnarled staff. "Ok, Ukudo you and your skeletons take out the fallen and I'll take out the shaman ok?" whispered Will.
"Hey Will? Why are you talking so softly for?" he said loudly. He then noticed that the fallen had heard him and they started rushing up to him. "Ohhhhhhh now I get it!"
"Shut up you fool and attack!" screamed Will. The Heroes rushed the enemies head on with Will and the lead and Ukudo and his skeletons following right behind. With Will being as accident prone as he is he tripped over a patch of damp dirt and fell face first into a cluster of rocks. Ukudo was oblivious to this but because of that he tripped over Will and fell. Because the skeletons are psychically linked to Ukudo they too fell over, their frail bodies smashing as they fell. "NOOOOOOOO!!! NOT MY LOVELY SKELETONS! YOU, SHAL, PAY DEMONS!!!" In his rage he started firing teeth everywhere decimating the entire area. "HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I HAVE AVENGED MY FALLEN COMRADS!!! I..." he had been stabbed with a sedative needle that Will had carried ever since he had met Ukudo. "Ahah! I knew that would come in handy! Now I get all this loot to myself." cried Will. He then collected all he could carry and then put it in a sac for him to collect later.
After clearing the den of all the monsters he made his way back to Ukudo who has still unconscious. Will picked up his sac and cast a town portal. He threw the sac which was followed by Ukudo and then Will stepped threw the portal. Without doing anything about his comrade or sac of stuff he walked off to his tent for a well-deserved rest.
