Who is Leah?

About 11 minutes into the gameplay trailer the barbarian says something like "Leah worries for you" to Cain. So my question is, who is this Leah?

Is she like Deckard´s lover, daughter or grand-daughter (can the Horadrim procreate?

And also might the girl featured in the teaser cinematic be this Leah?
Wonder what her purpose might be... more than being the new narrator... hope she fares better than Marius!

my only assumption is she's an NPC that gives a quest to find Cain. Of course, i could be wrong.

I would guess that she's like a student of Cain or something.

Student sound more realistic than child.
It's been said that he's the only remain of the Horadraim and he's like a hundered years old, so he's not going to make new kind anytime soon...

Anya's daughter.

I haven't yet watched the gameplay video, but I'm going to guess that Leah is the girl in the cinematic trailer. Or do we know that that girl (who says "I don't think it's safe here") is someone else?

Yep, probably just some NPC

Is Cain a real Horadrim? I thought they where all dead and he was just a wannabe.

I agree Thirty-Thirty...she is more than likely the girl from the Cinematic trailer. I am willing to bet that the girl in that trailer is going to have a central role in all of the future cinematics.....

Yeah, I think she'll be the protagonist of the cinematics and not the PC - just like Marius was in D2.

It would be interesting to see a ressurection of the Horadrim through Leah, Cain may have been less than satisfied with the lack of attention the general populace had of almost succumbing to the forces of Hell 20 years earlier.

In the trailer it seems she's searching for knowledge in the cathedral of Tristram, just as the meteor from heaven is descending(Tyrael?).

Yes, you could be right Corkee. However I would be excited to see the protagonist of the cinematics involved in the actual gameplay and storyline. Not that I didn't think D2's cinematic storyline was bad, I actually thought it worked very well, always being one step behind, sort of thing. And I don't think a pathetic person like Marius would have added much to your gameplay experience if he had been in it.

But Leah definitely looks like a more intriguing person for a protagonist.
