Claim the Power of Zerus

Zeratul: Zerus, birthworld of the zerg. It lies far beyond the Koprulu sector, where no terran has ventured.

You must go to that ancient place, Kerrigan. Learn its secrets and take its power.

Kerrigan: My need to see Mengsk dead called me here. These zerg will help me destroy Korhal.

Zeratul: You must let Zerus remake you, Kerrigan! The final war nears, and there is little time.

Kerrigan: I don’t have to do a damn thing. I will not be a pawn in your prophecies.

Zeratul: But you will do anything to have your revenge?

Kerrigan: Anything.

Zeratul: Then that is enough.

Void Seeker Conversation

Kerrigan: Why are you helping, Zeratul? You have more cause to hate me than most.

Zeratul: The xel’naga wish you restored as the leader of the Swarm.

Kerrigan: You know I don’t believe in your mad prophecies.

Zeratul: Your belief is not required. I act for the greater good, though it earns me the hatred of my own people.

Kerrigan: Spare me your self-pity, Zeratul. Everyone has to make peace with their own choices.

Zeratul: I made my peace long ago. When we are done here, I will return to my people, and accept their judgment.

Kerrigan: We all have to pay for our actions someday. I guess your day is almost here.

 

Izsha Conversation

Kerrigan: I’m looking through the eyes of my overlords. These primal zerg are fascinating. They show no signs of age.

claim-the-power-of-zerus-starcraft-ii-heart-of-the-swarm-single-player-12

Izsha: All organisms age. Even zerg.

Kerrigan: But the primals feed off the essence of individuals. They’re in a state of constant evolution. They don’t die.

claim-the-power-of-zerus-starcraft-ii-heart-of-the-swarm-single-player-13

Izsha: Until they are killed by another primal.

Kerrigan: True. The most successful hunters among them must be incredibly ancient. And incredibly dangerous.
