When the Angiris Council and the Prime Evils decided to buy Diablo IV Gold leave Sanctuary to their own devices, part of the deal was Mephisto taking Inarius to his own realm. Unfortunately, this meant Inarius had to suffer Mephisto's torture for all of eternity.

Fortunately for the Archangels, this would come to a halt when Mephisto will be defeated by heroes. However, as with the events of Diablo 3, Mephisto's essence will return to Sanctuary after the destruction of the Black Soulstone.

Inarius' fate remains unknown. Whether Inarius used this opportunity to escape and what happened to him afterward may be revealed in Diablo 4. However, the fact remains that Inarius became a broken angel while Inarius tortured him.

Fans of the first Diablo game fondly remember the Overlord demon at the early stages of the title.His followers apparently became the Overlord. Given the new information on Inarius, this piece of trivia may be a retcon, cut content, or a misunderstood part of Sanctuary's history.

These hulking brutes became extremely difficult opponents at the beginning of the game, due to their speed. Despite their nature as demons, they become attributed to Inarius, at least in the Diablo manual. In fact, the team apparently designed Inarius only to explain the origins of the Overlord.

In this original design, Inarius served as an arrogant and prideful angel who thought himself higher than both demonkind and angels. In turn, he created a great cathedral that attracted various followers. Unfortunately, when Inarius assaulted a temple of Diablo 4 Gold Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred himself captured Inarius and tortured him.
