[[Image:worldstone.jpg|thumb|400px|Worldstone Before Its Destruction]]The '''Temporary RemovedWorldstone'''resides deep within [[Mount Arreat]]. It was brought into being in order to keep [[Sanctuary]] hidden from the forces of Heaven and Hell.
This article will return shortly!==History==The '''Worldstone''' was created along with [[Sanctuary]] by the [[Archangel]] [[Inarius]] with the help of other [[Angels]] and [[Demons]]. After the creation of the [[Nephalem]], the '''Worldstone''' was used by [[Inarius]] to weaken them. So powerful was this curse upon the first humans that each successive generation became weaker, as well.
--[[User:Leord|LeordSoulstone]]s are thought to be fragments of the '''Worldstone''', but this speculation has yet to be proven or disproved with any certainty. Although it is known that [[Tyrael]] gave the [[soulstone]]s to the [[Horadrim]], not even Horadric lore is able to recite their true origin. ==Destruction of the Worldstone==The '''Worldstone''' was destroyed by [[Tyrael]] after the ultimate battle between [[Baal]] and the Heroes of Light. [[Baal]] had corrupted the '''Worldstone''' to his will, and it was decided by [[Tyrael]] that it had to be destroyed, lest the forces of Hell come flooding into the realm of [[Sanctuary]]. It is speculated that the next game in the series, [[Diablo III]], will explain the effects, if any, on [[Tyrael]] and [[Sanctuary]] for his drastic action. Adding to the mystery of [[Tyrael]] 19's action is the concern and uncertainty of the inhabitants of [http:13//diablo2.diablowiki.net/Harrogath Harrogath] after the destruction of the '''Worldstone'''. It is known in the Prophecy that the '''Worldstone''' would be corrupted, 6 November 2008 (CET)but [http://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Anya Anya] goes as far as mentioning that the Prophecy ''never'' mentioned it being outright destroyed.
