[[Kehjistan]] will be the primary battleground of Season 3. Below the Amber Sands (Desolate Sands) lays a sprawling network of [[Vaults_-_Dungeons|Vaults]] once occupied by Zoltun Kulle (founding member of the Horadrim) and his companion, Ayuzhan, who toiled away there creating the Black Soulstone to trap and hold the Great Evils. This was work he didn't want the other Horadrim or demonic forces discovering so he set countless traps and hazards throughout the Archives in case any of them came searching for him. Traps you'll find soon enough. | [[Kehjistan]] will be the primary battleground of Season 3.

The Loom is an ancient technology designed by Zoltun Kulle and Ayuzhan to shape the elements and build tools to serve humanity. Zoltun Kulle <ref name="zoltun kulle">[https://www.purediablo.com/zoltun-kulle-the-mage-and-his-machinations Zoltun Kulle: The Mage and His Machinations]</ref> first appeared in Diablo 3 where years of experimenting with Soulstones had turned him to the dark side and into a Dark Horadrim but he was defeated. With Kulle dead his companion, Ayuzhan, failed to keep the Loom safe and now it has fallen into the hands of the demon Malphas who is harnessing its awesome power and not in a good way. | The Loom is an ancient technology designed by Zoltun Kulle and Ayuzhan to shape the elements and build tools to serve humanity.

Vaults are a new type of dungeon for Season 3 and there are 4 types. As well as being full of different kinds of [[Constructs]] to battle the actual environment is hostile, itself almost alive with hazards. Spiked floors, vents of poison, and beams of fire will all be thrown at you. This offers a slightly different style of gameplay with so much more around and underneath you to contend with. However, because of the intensity of the Vaults, they are also highly lucrative.<gallery> | Vaults are a new type of dungeon for Season 3 and there are 4 types.
