My Barbarian, Zeta, is finally in the very beginning part of Act IV (Normal Difficulty). I was so very excited when I got here that I was seriously considering just playing straight through to the end of the game.
Two things made me decide against that. One, it was five in the morning, and I hadn’t gone to bed yet. Two, I knew I would be recording an episode of Shattered Soulstone later that day, and I didn’t want to sound incoherent and delirious from lack of sleep.

Imperious comes to blame it all on Tyrael and the Nephalem.
Tyrael: The Prime Evil… I can’t believe all this has come to pass. Adria played us all for fools.
Tyrael: Diablo’s influence has twisted her inside and out. I suspect we have not seen the last of her.
A little foreshadowing: I suspect we have not seen the last of her.
Here comes Iskatu. It was so early in the morning by then that I have completely forgotten what, exactly, he was there for, who he was, or how he fits into the story.
But, that didn’t stop me from killing him.
I got two more achievements!
Attacking the Darkness: Kill 20 Shadow Vermin, Gloom Wraiths, or Shade Stalkers at once.
Massive Blow: Kill 30 enemies in one attack.
I hit a Checkpoint not long after that, and decided to go get some sleep.
