這集可以看出凱瑞根是怎麼成為宇宙中最惡婊子..(By Glynnis Talken) The Story So Far:Part 2: The Broood War 怒火燎原 The evacuation of Aiur 撤離翁行星 Tassadar's brave sacrifice had destroyed the Overmind, but countless rampaging zerg remained on Aiur and would surely overrun the surviving protoss. Zeratul offered sanctuary on Shakuras, the adopted home of the dark templar. Although the decision was difficult, Executor Artanis and the surviving members of the shattered Conclave agreed that their first duty was to save as many lives as possible. 雖然塔沙達的英勇犧牲摧毀了主宰, 但無數地不受控制的異形仍然在翁行星上流竄, 殘存的神族將不可避免地遭受毀滅. 賽拉圖提議前往影櫻行星尋求庇護, 也就是流亡暗影聖堂的家園. 縱使這樣的決定是難以讓人接受, 執行官亞坦尼斯和與毀壞的合議庭殘存成員們, 仍然同意目前他們的第一要務, 是儘可能地挽救神族命脈. Jim Raynor's forces and the protoss cut a path through the zerg to reach an ancient xel'naga warp gate, the relic of an earlier age. Using the gate, Zeratul opened a connection to a second gate on Shakuras. During the battle, Raynor and some of the protoss were cut off, but Artanis and Zeratul led many other protoss through the gate to safety on Shakuras. 吉姆雷納的武力和神族守護著遠古賽爾納迦傳送門, 一個早期年代的遺物, 並切斷了異形前往的路徑. 透過傳送門, 賽拉圖開啟了在影櫻上面第二個傳送門, 並建立起連繫. 在戰鬥之中, 雷納和一些神族被孤立了, 但亞坦尼斯和賽拉圖仍然帶領相當數量的神族經由傳送門安然抵達影櫻行星. To their horror, they found that the zerg were following them through the gate. The evacuees joined forces with their dark brethren and fought the invasion. Meanwhile, Raynor's forces and a handful of protoss chose to remain on Aiur and shut down its warp gate, ensuring that no further zerg reinforcements could reach Shakuras. With no means of escape, this brave band seemed doomed. 不過他們擔心的事情還是發生了. 他門發現有些異形隨著他們穿越傳送門. 翁行星上的神族與他們的暗影同胞協力對抗異形入侵. 此時, 雷納的武力與少數的神族選擇留在翁行星上並且關閉了他們附近的傳送門, 以確保異形不會再派出更多的援軍到影櫻行星上. 在沒有逃脫的機會下, 這群英勇的戰士看來註定覆滅. Unlikely allies 不受歡迎的盟友 Sorrowfully the dark templar led their visitors to meet Raszagal, the ancient matriarch who ruled Shakuras. The protoss' first priority was to battle the spreading zerg infestation of Shakuras. Raszagal declared that a xel'naga temple on Shakuras could cleanse the planet, but its activation required two crystals- -the Khalis and the Uraj--that had been lost long ago. 憂心忡忡的暗影聖堂引領著他們的訪客去覲見拉茲葛, 也就是自遠古以來統治影櫻行星的女族長. 神族首先要做的事情就是擊退在影櫻上面逐漸擴張的異形寄生. 拉茲葛宣稱一座賽爾納迦的神廟能夠淨化整座星球, 但要啟動它需要兩個水晶 - 卡莉絲和烏拉傑 - 很久以前就不知所蹤了. Raszagal "Very well, Kerrigan. We shall hear what you have to say. But be warned: We will not suffer your treachery here. " 拉茲葛 "很好, 凱瑞根. 我們會聽看看你想要講的東西. 不過警告妳: 我們不會容許妳背信棄義." Kerrigan arrived unexpectedly and told the wary protoss that with the Overmind slain, she was no longer the merciless killer she had been. However, the surviving cerebrates had merged to create a new Overmind that would soon control the Swarm and transform Kerrigan back into the Overmind's pawn. 凱瑞根在無預警的情況下抵達了影櫻, 並且告訴對她存有戒心的神族, 在主宰死後, 她不再是像以前一樣的無情殺手. 然而, 存活下來的腦蟲們已經融合成一個新的主宰, 很快地就會重新掌握群體, 並且把凱瑞根再度轉變成異形的爪牙. Kerrigan offered to help retrieve the Khalis and Uraj, and Raszagal accepted, overriding the objections of Artanis and Zeratul. The protoss heroes and Kerrigan departed for the planet Braxis, where they secured the Uraj. In the process they encountered an unfamiliar terran force identifying itself as the United Earth Directorate (UED). Ordered to surrender, the protoss refused and eluded capture. 凱瑞根提供協助取回卡莉絲和烏拉傑. 拉茲葛不顧亞坦尼斯和賽拉圖的反對, 同意了凱瑞根的提議. 神族的英雄們和凱瑞根在布拉西斯星球上著陸, 並收回了烏拉傑. 過程中他們遭遇到不同於以往的人類武力, 宣稱自己為地球聯合理事會(UED). 神族被要求投降並卸除武力, 但仍然巧妙地逃過圍捕. Their next destination was Char, where the protoss located the Khalis, dangerously near the developing Overmind. Pitting themselves against the zerg and the young Overmind, Kerrigan and the protoss retrieved Khalis and returned to Shakuras. 他們下一個目的地則是殎, 神族確認了卡莉絲水晶地點, 相當危險地就在發展中的主宰附近 . 經過與新生的主宰和異形互相角力, 凱瑞根和神族終究還是成功回收卡莉絲並返回影櫻. Tragedy on Shakuras 影櫻的悲劇 There they found that some of the Aiur evacuees had turned against their dark templar allies. Already in the midst of a crisis, Raszagal was in no mood to negotiate and ordered the dark templar to vanquish the dissenters. Zeratul found the command troubling, but he and his allies obeyed. As the traitors' resistance crumbled, the dark templar demanded that the rebel leader surrender. He refused, claiming that the other protoss were doomed and Raszagal was hiding a loathsome secret. 他們發現有些翁行星的倖存者轉而對抗暗影聖堂與同盟. 在這個危機之下, 拉茲葛無意進行妥協, 並下令暗影聖堂消滅這些異議份子. 賽拉圖對於這個要求非常為難, 但他與同盟仍然遵從旨意. 當反抗軍武力潰滅時, 暗影聖堂要求叛軍首領投降. 叛軍首領拒絕了, 並宣稱其他的神族危如累卵, 以及拉茲葛藏著一個不可告人的秘密. Zeratul "There is something amiss here. The Matriarch has always been a wise and gentle soul. Though there is some merit in her decision, this is very unlike her." 賽拉圖 "我感覺事情有些不對勁. 女族長一直以來都是睿智且寬容的. 雖然她的決定不無根據, 但這真的非常不像她." Artanis "That may well be... But right now we have a friend to kill. May Adun forgive us . " 亞坦尼斯 "你說得沒錯..但現在我們得去除掉一個朋友. 希望亞頓能原諒我們." Before the traitor could explain his accusation, Kerrigan and her zerg minions slew him. Zeratul angrily ordered Kerrigan to leave Shakuras. She left willingly , telling him that their alliance had already achieved her goal. The cerebrates had refused to follow her leadership, and now with the dark templar's assistance , they were all but destroyed. 在這名叛徒更進一步釐清他的指控之前, 凱瑞根與她的異形軍團殺害了這名叛徒. 賽拉圖十分憤怒地要求凱瑞根離開影櫻行星. 她非常樂意地照辦, 並且告訴賽拉圖這個同盟已經達到了她的目的. 那些不服從她指揮的腦蟲, 在暗影聖堂的協助下, 現在已經被全部剿滅了. The zerg would overwhelm Shakuras unless the protoss unleashed the xel'naga temple's power. Thus, the desperate protoss carried out their plan despite knowing that they were further aiding Kerrigan by doing so. Artanis and Zeratul carried the crystals to the temple's summit, channeled the temple's vast energies, and obliterated all zerg on Shakuras. 如果神族再不釋放塞爾納迦神廟的力量, 異形即將會征服影櫻行星. 於是, 絕望的神族即使不知道這樣會不會繼續幫助到凱瑞根, 也只能繼續原訂計畫. 亞坦尼斯和賽拉圖攜帶著水晶來到神廟頂端, 調整神廟的龐大能源, 並且消滅所有在影櫻行星上的異形. Discovery of the psi disrupter 心靈增幅器的發現 For some time the UED had kept a close watch over the terran colonies in the Koprulu sector. With the discovery of the protoss and zerg, the Directorate's ruling council decided it was time to reestablish control over their distant cousins. UED保持對於克普魯星區人類殖民地的近距離觀察已經有一段時間了. 在發現神族與異形之後, 理事會的統治議庭決定該是對這些遙遠的表親, 重新建立起統治權的時候. The UED dispatched an expeditionary fleet led by Admiral DuGalle. His orders were to overthrow the Terran Dominion and capture the young Overmind. First, with the assistance of Samir Duran and his Confederate resistance forces, the UED fleet secured the planet Braxis as a staging point. Vice Admiral Stukov, DuGalle's tactical advisor, recruited Duran's group into the UED. UED派遣了一隻遠征艦隊, 由杜高樂上將所率領. 他收到的命令是推翻人類帝國, 並且捕捉新生的主宰. 首先, 在山米爾.杜蘭以及他的聯邦反抗武力協助下, UED艦隊收復了布拉西斯行星, 並建立起前線陣地. 斯圖可夫中將, 杜高樂的戰術顧問, 將杜蘭的部隊收編進UED裡. Next, DuGalle launched a surprise attack on the Dylarian shipyards, commandeering many of the Dominion's battlecruisers docked there. Dominion reinforcements arrived, led by General Edmund Duke, but they were outgunned and ultimately retreated. The triumphant UED laid waste to the shipyards and conscripted the remaining Dylarian defenders. 接著, 杜高樂對位於戴拉利安的船塢發動了奇襲, 並奪取了許多帝國錨泊在那邊的戰鬥巡洋艦. 艾德蒙.杜克將軍所率領的帝國援軍前往救援, 但最終他們不敵UED艦隊只好撤退. 勝利的UED艦隊廢棄了船塢, 並徵招殘存的戴拉利安防衛武力. UED forces learned of a mysterious weapon on the planet Tarsonis: the psi disrupter, which could block zerg communications. If the Dominion secured the weapon, the UED would be unable to use the zerg as planned. Thus, Duran recommended destroying the weapon, and DuGalle agreed despite Stukov's objections. UED武力知悉有一種神秘的武器在塔桑妮絲行星上面: 心靈增幅器, 足以阻絕異形彼此間的通訊. 如果帝國成功回收它, UED可能無法按照計畫中利用異形. 於是, 杜蘭建議摧毀這項武器, 而杜高樂無視斯圖可夫的反對, 同意了這個行動. Duran and other UED forces captured the psi disrupter, but several UED ghosts quickly arrived and announced that Stukov had ordered them to dismantle the device. Duran had little choice but to relinquish the weapon. 杜蘭和其他的UED武力占據了心靈增幅器, 但許多UED的鬼子迅速抵達現場並且宣布斯圖可夫的命令, 要求他們拆卸這個裝置. 杜蘭只能服從並且交出此項武器. Stukov's defiance 斯圖可夫的抗命 The UED fleet headed to the planet Korhal IV, capital of the Dominion. Attacking Korhal's capital city, Augustgrad, DuGalle's fleet eventually surrounded the remainder of Mengsk's forces. UED forces prepared to take the deposed emperor into custody, but Jim Raynor arrived in Mengsk's old battlecruiser, the Hyperion , along with a small protoss fleet. Moments later, Raynor, his protoss allies, and Mengsk had escaped, and the UED fleet was in hot pursuit. UED艦隊朝向克哈四號行星, 也就是帝國的首都而去. 在攻擊克哈的首都城市, 奧古斯都格勒之後, 杜高樂的艦隊終於將曼斯克殘存兵力團團包圍. UED武力準備好把這個遜位的皇帝送進大牢時, 吉姆.雷納卻駕著曼斯克過去的旗艦, 海迫利安, 以及一小群神族艦隊前來. 雷納, 以及它的神族盟友, 架著曼斯克逃離, 而UED則展開了激烈追捕. DuGalle "Hah! The man who crowns himself 'Emperor' speaks to me of daring? You have far outlived your reputation citizen Mengsk. Captain, prepare to take the Emperor into custody." 杜高樂 "哈! 這個自己加冕"稱帝"的傢伙居然質疑我竟然敢動他? 你已經過太久不符合你身分的生活了, 公民曼斯克. 艦長, 準備把這個皇帝打入大牢." The UED tracked Raynor and Mengsk to Aiur, where the fugitives activated a warp gate in preparation for an escape. The gate's energies incited the surrounding zerg to attack, and to Stukov's shock, Duran's forces moved out of position, leaving UED forces on the planet open to attack by the Swarm. Unable to hold off the zerg and recapture Mengsk at the same time, Stukov withdrew his forces to rejoin the fleet. Stukov himself abruptly departed for Braxis. UED追尋雷納以及曼斯克萊到了翁行星, 這些逃犯們啟動了一個傳送門並準備逃離. 傳送門能源引起了周遭異形的攻擊. 斯圖可夫震驚於杜蘭的部隊離開了崗位, 讓行星上的UED武力被迫與群體開戰. 在無法同時抵抗異形並且逮捕曼斯克的情況下, 斯圖可夫撤出了他的部隊並且回到艦隊. 斯圖可夫也突然地離開了布拉西斯行星. DuGalle was puzzled to hear that Raynor and Mengsk had escaped, and Stukov had abandoned the battle on Aiur. When the UED detected a psi disrupter on Braxis, Duran concluded that Stukov had rebuilt the Tarsonis device to sabotage the UED's goals. Unable to deny the evidence, DuGalle ordered Duran to find and kill Stukov. 杜高樂對於雷納和曼斯克再度逃離, 以及斯圖可夫放棄在翁行星上的戰鬥感到困惑. 當UED 偵測到布拉西斯上面有一個心靈增幅器時, 杜蘭認為斯圖可夫意圖重建在塔桑妮絲上面的裝置來破壞UED的成果. 在無法反駁這些證據下, 杜高樂下令杜蘭找出並且解決掉斯圖可夫. DuGalle "I can't believe it. Yet the evidence is incontrovertible. Alexei, what have you done?" 杜高樂 "我實在是無法相信, 但事實卻就放在眼前. 亞歷克西, 你到底想做甚麼?" Duran shot Stukov and then slipped away. Mortally wounded, Stukov told DuGalle that Duran was the real traitor and had likely been infested by the zerg. Duran had allowed Mengsk and Raynor to escape. Furthermore, Duran had suggested destroying the psi disrupter, which Stukov had reassembled because he was certain it was critical to saving humanity from the zerg. 杜蘭射殺了斯圖可夫隨即就消失得無影無蹤. 受到了致命傷害下, 斯圖可夫告訴了杜高樂, 就是杜蘭才是真正的叛徒, 他很有可能已經被異形所寄生了. 杜蘭蓄意讓曼斯克與雷納逃走 . 更進一步, 杜蘭提議摧毀那部被斯圖可夫重組的心靈增幅器, 其中的原因就是他確信心靈增幅器將是從異形肆虐中拯救全人類的重要關鍵. Stukov's message convinced DuGalle, who established a garrison on Braxis before he led the UED fleet to Char. UED forces overcame the young Overmind's defenses and administered powerful neurostims so that the UED could control the Overmind. 斯圖可夫的遺言說服了杜高樂, 他在布拉西斯建立起強大的駐防軍力, 才率領UED艦隊前往殎行星. UED軍隊擊潰了新生主宰的防禦, 並注射了強力的神經藥劑把新生主宰控制在手中. Controlling the Swarm 掌握群體 As the drugs started taking effect, Duran and the Queen of Blades suddenly appeared in the UED's midst. Kerrigan introduced herself as the leader of the zerg. It was clear that Duran was indeed infested. DuGalle threatened to disrupt her control over the zerg with the psi disrupter, but Kerrigan said that she intended to destroy the weapon. She thanked DuGalle for executing Stukov and departed. 當神經藥劑開始發揮作用時, 杜蘭和刀鋒之後突然出現在UED的中心. 凱瑞根引介自己為異形的領導者. 很明確地杜蘭是被寄生了. 杜高樂威脅要把凱瑞根對異形的控制力, 透過心靈增幅器解除. 但凱瑞根卻反擊道她本來就意圖要摧毀這項裝置, 並感謝杜高樂幫他處決了斯圖可夫, 隨即消失在戰場上. Establishing a base on Char, the UED took control of the Overmind's minions, who made up the vast majority of the Swarm. This control gave the UED a decisive advantage over Kerrigan, for the psi disrupter prevented her from controlling zerg that were not yet under the young Overmind's control. UED在殎行星上建立起基地, 並控制著主宰以及其手下大多數的異形群體成員. 這項作為讓 UED有著決定性的優勢對抗凱瑞根, 而心靈增幅器也讓她無法去控制還沒有被新生主宰所收服的異形. Kerrigan "The only thing I can assure you of, Arcturus, is that without my help, you'll be the Emperor of your own little eight by eight cell for the rest of your life ." 凱瑞根 "我只能向你擔保一件事情, 大角星, 那就是沒有我的協助, 你只能在你那八乘八平方米的監牢裡終其一生做著你的皇帝夢." She contacted Shakuras and convinced Jim Raynor and the protoss to rescue the remains of the Dominion fleet from the UED. Raynor and the protoss remained distrustful, but she informed them that controlling the zerg was only the first step in the Directorate's plan. Earth would inevitably lock down the whole sector. 她接觸了影櫻行星, 並且說服了吉姆.雷納與神族將會從UED手中救出殘存的帝國艦隊. 雷納和神族仍是無法信任她, 但她指出控制異形只是理事會計畫中的首要階段. 地球將會不可避免地封鎖住整個星區. Furthermore, Kerrigan claimed that she bore Mengsk no ill will. She needed Mengsk's psi emitters to reclaim additional zerg minions, destroy the psi disrupter, and vanquish the Directorate fleet. In return, she offered to help Mengsk reclaim Korhal IV. With no acceptable alternatives, Mengsk agreed. Kerrigan's plan worked perfectly, and she destroyed the psi disrupter. 更進一步, 凱瑞根宣稱對曼斯克已不懷恨在心. 她需要曼斯克的心靈射源來重新控制更多的異形軍團, 並且消滅理事會艦隊. 作為回報, 她提供協助讓曼斯克重掌克哈四號行星. 在沒有其他更好的方案下, 曼斯克同意了. 凱瑞根的計畫完美地達成, 她摧毀了心靈增幅器. Breaking alliances 同盟崩壞 Kerrigan honored her side of the bargain, bolstering the ranks of her zerg minions and helping Mengsk retake Korhal from the UED. Then, without warning, she sent her zerg against the Dominion and protoss encampments. General Duke fell in battle, but Kerrigan spared Mengsk's life because she wanted to savor his suffering as he watched her ascend to power. As for Jim Raynor, he escaped, swearing that one day he would kill her. 凱瑞根實現了她的諾言, 派出她的異形軍團協助曼斯克從UED手中奪回克哈. 然後, 在沒有預警的情況下, 她率領的異形襲擊了帝國與神族的營地. 杜克將軍在戰鬥中倒下, 但凱瑞根饒了曼斯克一命, 因為她想讓曼斯克活著, 看她如何掌握權力就是對曼斯克最大的報復. 至於吉姆.雷納, 他逃走了, 並且發誓有一天他會回來取走凱瑞根的性命. Kerrigan "You're right, Fenix. I used you to get the job done, and you played along just like I knew you would. You Protoss are all so headstrong and predictable, you are your own worst enemies." 凱瑞根 "你說得沒錯, 芬尼克斯. 我利用你來完成我的野心, 你也就跟我所知道的一樣奉陪到底. 你們神族都是腦袋全肌肉很容易預測的, 你自己就是你們最大的敵人." Fenix "That's ironic. I can remember Tassadar teaching you a very similar lesson on Char." 芬尼克斯 "這倒是挺諷刺的. 我還記得塔沙達在殎行星上面才給過妳一次類似的教訓." Next Kerrigan had Raszagal kidnapped and taken to Char. Predictably Zeratul tracked down the protoss matriarch and demanded her safe return. Kerrigan proposed a trade: if Zeratul and his compatriots destroyed the young Overmind, Kerrigan would permit Raszagal to return to her people. Because the Overmind was indisputably the protoss' enemy as well as Kerrigan's, Zeratul reluctantly agreed. 接下來凱瑞根綁架了拉茲葛並把她戴到殎行星. 如預料般賽拉圖追尋著神族女族長並且要求她安然回歸. 凱瑞根提出了一個交易: 如果賽拉圖與他的忠貞之士能解決掉新生主宰, 凱瑞根就同意拉茲葛回到她的族人身旁. 因為主宰之於凱瑞根, 無疑地也是神族的敵人, 賽拉圖很不情願地應允了. Only after he and his compatriots had destroyed the Overmind did Zeratul learn that Kerrigan had long ago enslaved and corrupted the dark templar's matriarch. The Queen of Blades had brilliantly outmaneuvered the protoss. With the Overmind and its cerebrates dead, all zerg in the Koprulu sector reverted to Kerrigan's control. 直到他與他的同胞解決了主宰, 賽拉圖才發現凱瑞根許久以前就已經禁錮並且腐壞了暗影聖堂的女族長. 刀鋒之後很聰明地運用計略操縱著神族. 在主宰以及他的腦蟲們都毀滅後, 所有在克普魯星區的異形將會重歸凱瑞根的手下. Yet the dark templar refused to give up. They stole Raszagal from the zerg, but Kerrigan's minions surrounded Zeratul's base before the dark templar could escape with their matriarch. As Kerrigan and her minions drew near, Zeratul mortally wounded Raszagal rather than let her be recaptured. In her last moments , Raszagal thanked him for freeing her from Kerrigan's influence. Kerrigan decided to spare Zeratul's life rather than allow him the peace of death. Ravaged by grief and guilt, Zeratul vowed that he would avenge Raszagal. 但暗影聖堂不願就此放棄. 他們從異形手中暗中救出拉茲葛, 但凱瑞根的軍團圍困住賽拉圖的基地, 讓這名暗影聖堂無法帶著他的女族長逃亡. 當凱瑞根與她的軍團逼近時, 賽拉圖狠下心重創了拉茲葛, 也不願意讓她在被異形俘虜. 在她最後的遺言中, 拉茲葛感謝賽拉圖將她從凱瑞根的影響中釋放. 凱瑞根決定饒恕賽拉圖的性命, 而不給他一個平靜的死亡. 被哀傷與自責的浪潮衝擊心靈, 賽拉圖誓言為他的女族長復仇. A far greater power 更加強大的力量 As Zeratul and his people left Char, they detected protoss power signatures on an uncharted moon nearby. Zeratul and several other protoss investigated and found that someone had been using gene splicing to create hybrids with mixed zerg and protoss DNA. 當賽拉圖和他的戰士離開殎行星, 他們發現一些神族能源信號, 就在附近一個沒有記錄的月亮上. 賽拉圖和一些神族調查之後發現, 有人在這邊操作基因疊合創造出異形與神族DNA的混種生物. Duran "This creature is the completion of a cycle. It's role in the cosmic order was preordained when the stars were young. Behold the culmination of your history." 杜蘭 "這個生物是基因循環下的完美產物. 他將統治宇宙的秩序, 在星辰仍然年輕的時候就注定好的, 將會在你的歷史中寫下最高峰. In at least one case, the attempt had proven successful. Staring the abomination in horror, Zeratul was surprised when a male terran suddenly uncloaked in front of the stasis cell. The terran introduced himself as Samir Duran. 在這些樣本中, 至少有一個實驗品是成功的. 賽拉圖充滿恐懼地盯著這些令人作噁的生物, 卻發現一個男性人類突然在他前面的保存莢艙解除隱形. 這個人類介紹他自己是山姆.杜蘭. Zeratul recognized the name and asked if Kerrigan had instigated the hybridization project. Duran denied the accusation and said that he served a far greater power. The zerg-protoss hybrid were the last step in a vast cycle that was approaching its end. Scattered on a thousand different worlds, the hybrid would presently awaken, and the universe would change forever. Deeply troubled, Zeratul and the other protoss returned to their ship and continued on their way to Shakuras. 賽拉圖理解到這個名字, 並且質問是否正是凱瑞根發起這項混血計畫. 杜蘭否認了這項指控 , 並且坦承他是服務於更強大的力量. 這個異形-神族混血是整個龐大基因循環中的最後一步, 也是計畫的終點. 在毀壞數以千計不同的世界之後, 這個混種即將甦醒, 而宇宙的命運也將就此改變. 賽拉圖深深地感到困惑, 卻也只能隨著其他神族回到艦隊裡, 並且繼續他們航向影櫻行星的旅程. Kerrigan's ascension 凱瑞根的登基 The Queen of Blades soon faced another threat, and she was not pleased to discover that Duran had inconveniently disappeared. Apparently Arcturus Mengsk had called in a few favors and scraped together a new fleet. Artanis had also warped into the area with a fleet of protoss ships from Shakuras. Last but not least, Admiral DuGalle was stubbornly determined to defeat the woman who had masterminded Stukov's death. 刀鋒之後很快地又面臨了另一個威脅, 而且她也不高興地發現, 杜蘭此時的消失造成她許多不方便. 很明顯地, 大角星.曼斯克在透過一些關係後, 又勉強組成了一隻新艦隊. 亞坦尼斯也跳躍進了這個區域, 並且從影櫻行星帶來了神族艦隊. 然而, 對於這個主謀斯圖柯夫之死的女人, 杜高樂上將也偏執地決定要來擊敗她. DuGalle "You vastly underestimate me, my dear." 杜高樂 "親愛的, 我想妳遠遠低估了我." Kerrigan "I don't think so, Admiral. You see, at this point... I'm pretty much the Queen Bitch of the Universe. And not all of your little soldiers or space ships will stand in my way again." 凱瑞根 "我倒不這麼認為, 上將. 你知道嗎, 在這個情勢下..我對你來說應該是宇宙中的婊子女王. 你所有的渺小士兵或是宇宙艦艇都不再能礙著我的事." Kerrigan taught the three fleets better than to underestimate the Swarm. Facing imminent defeat, Mengsk and Artanis were forced to withdraw from the battle. At last it became clear that the UED fleet could not hope to succeed where the other two fleets had failed. DuGalle offered to surrender if Kerrigan would spare the lives of his soldiers. The Queen of Blades, however, had no interest in taking prisoners. Instead, she told DuGalle to turn his ships in the direction of Earth and flee. She would give him a reasonable head start before she sent the Swarm after him. 凱瑞根告訴了這三支艦隊, 永遠不要低估群體的實力. 體認到失敗就在眼前, 曼斯克和亞坦尼斯被迫退出了戰鬥. 最終UED艦隊也很明白地了解, 在其他兩支艦隊潰退的情況下, 他們是沒有希望贏得勝利的. 杜高樂向凱瑞根遞出降書, 並且希望凱瑞根能饒恕其他士兵的性命 . 然而, 刀鋒之後對於收納俘虜並沒有興趣. 相對地, 她告訴杜高樂調轉船頭往地球的方向逃命去. 在她派出群體追殺UED艦隊前會給他們一些喘息空間. DuGalle and his battered ships obeyed, for they had no other choice. Onboard the flagship Aleksander, DuGalle composed a last letter to his wife. His mission was a failure. The zerg remained untamed; the colony worlds, unconquered. His pride had killed Stukov and brought the Directorate fleet to this desperate pass. 杜高樂和他受創的艦艇, 在沒有其他選擇下只得遵從. 在旗艦亞歷山大裡, 杜高樂撰寫了最後一封家書給他的妻子. 他的任務已然失敗. 異形仍舊不受馴化; 殖民地星球, 仍未控制. 他的自尊謀害了斯圖可夫, 並且把理事會艦隊帶到這這個絕望的關口. The admiral killed himself not long before Kerrigan's forces overtook the UED fleet and devastated it. Not one Directorate ship reached Earth to report the events that had taken place in the Koprulu sector. 上將選擇了結束了自己的生命, 不久之後凱瑞根就完全地掌控並且摧毀了UED艦隊. 沒有任何一艘UED船艦能夠返抵地球並且回報在克普魯星區發生的事情. Aftermath 餘波 The Queen of Blades did not become complacent in the wake of her victory. She kept watch over the Swarm from her core hive on Char. The Brood War left her the dominant force in Koprulu sector. The initial explosive expansion of the zerg has been replaced with a foreboding silence for four years, but no scouting expeditions to Swarm-controlled worlds have lived to tell what they saw there. 刀鋒之後對於他即將到手的勝利感到並不滿意. 她在殎上面的核心巢穴持續關注著群體. 怒火燎原之戰讓她成為克普魯星區的主宰武力. 異形從一開始瘋狂的擴張, 到這四年來反而變成充滿不祥預感的沉靜, 但在異形控制的區域裡, 沒有一個斥候探險隊能活著回來告訴人們到底發生了甚麼事情. Thus, outsiders can only speculate about what she has been doing--or what she has been seeking--these past four years. Many believe that the zerg are building their strength and engineering new organisms before going on the offensive again . Some contend that Kerrigan is staying her hand due to some small shred of humanity buried deep inside the creature she has become. Those who have encountered her savage fury know this to be merely wishful thinking. 所以, 居住在邊緣星區的人們只能推測, 在這四年內她在做甚麼 - 或是她想要找尋甚麼. 許多人相信異形正在建構他們的武力與演化新的組織, 以進行下一波的攻勢. 有些人主張凱瑞根之所以停手, 是因為縱使她變成了另一種生物, 在她內心深處仍然藏著小小的人性碎片 . 不過有接觸過她殘暴怒火的人們, 明白這只不過是一廂情願的看法而已. On the terran front 人類前線 Mengsk and his forces have regrouped on Korhal IV. His first order of business was to rebuild the Terran Dominion. In Kerrigan he had found a new target for revenge, and he'd always been happier with a goal to work toward anyway. The Dominion has since become the most powerful force among the terran factions, having taken over many of the original Confederate worlds. 曼斯克與它的部隊在克哈四號行星上重新集結. 他的第一要務是重建人類帝國. 他發現一個新的復仇目標 - 凱瑞根, 無論如何他也很高興有個執行目的可以追逐. 人類帝國現在成為人類區域裡最具份量的武力, 並且接管許多原來的聯邦世界. The Kel-Morian Combine and the Umojan Protectorate have been preparing for the inevitable war with either the zerg or Mengsk. The UED task force was almost completely destroyed in Brood War; only a few isolated pockets of survivors remain hidden in the Koprulu sector. 凱爾-莫瑞安聯合與巫魔加護國軍已經準備好一場不可避免的戰鬥, 無論是異形或是曼斯克. UED的任務軍隊在怒火燎原之戰中幾乎被完全摧毀; 只有少數的孤立殘存者還藏匿在克普魯星區. Jim Raynor has led a resistance movement against the Dominion, but that has been a losing battle. Arcturus Mengsk has used his greatest weapons--the media and propaganda--to marginalize Jim's efforts. Raynor seems to be losing faith, drinking heavily and haunted by the ghosts of his past. He has never forgiven himself for letting Kerrigan be taken by the zerg. 吉姆.雷納率領著一隻反抗運動武力對抗帝國, 但他們打的是必輸的戰爭. 大角星.曼斯克運用他最強力的武器 - 媒體和輿論 - 來盡可能侷限雷納的努力. 雷納看來也失去了他的信念 , 嚴重酗酒, 並且被過去的亡魂所糾纏. 他永遠無法原諒自己為何讓凱瑞根被異形所擄獲. Reintegration of the protoss race 神族的重建 The protoss evacuees from Aiur have been struggling to recover from the loss of their home planet while finding ways to mesh their society with that of the dark templar who call Shakuras home. The transition has been difficult for both sides , and the name of Raszagal has been invoked more than once to keep the peace. 從翁行星來的神族倖存者仍然努力地從失去母星的損失中回復, 並且找出融入影櫻行星上暗影聖堂社會的方法. 這樣的改變對於雙方來說都十分艱難, 以拉茲葛之名, 雙方都儘可能保持和平. The old Conclave has been swept away, and in its absence many protoss have begun looking to their ancient tribal affiliations for leadership and a sense of identity. With the protoss people working together as they did in ancient times and studying the xel'naga technology on Shakuras, the protoss have made many technological developments for continuing the war with the zerg. 舊有的評議會制度已經被一掃而空, 沒有了評議會許多神族開始尋求他們遠古的部落聯繫, 並確認領導權和鑑別. 當神族人民就像遠古時候他們有志一同的工作並且學習在影櫻行星上的塞爾納迦科技時, 神族發展出許多科技成就運用在他們對抗異形的戰爭. Memories of Raszagal have plagued Zeratul, who was further disturbed by his encounter with Samir Duran and the zerg-protoss hybrid Duran had apparently been creating. Shortly after bidding Raynor farewell on Shakuras, Zeratul departed the planet, and he has not been heard from in years. To this day he seeks to understand what Duran and the hybrid he was creating might portend. Lately he has uncovered something that may be related to the xel'naga, creators of both protoss and zerg, and he seeks new clues to unravel the mystery. 對於拉茲葛的懷念一直侵蝕著賽拉圖, 在他見過山姆.杜蘭以及他所創造的異形-神族混種之後更是嚴重. 當雷納向影櫻行星道別後不久, 賽拉圖也離開了星球, 這數年之間都沒有他的消息. 直到現在他仍在追尋並了解山姆以及他所創造的混種, 其中所代表的意義. 不久他發掘出有些與塞爾納迦可能有關的事物, 這個創造出異形與神族的種族, 並且繼續追尋線索, 來揭開這個不解之謎.
