GLOSSARY
sonorous : Full and loud and deep.
disparate : Fundamentally different or distinct in quality or kind. Including markedly dissimilar elements.
allay : Lessen the intensity of or calm. Satisfy (thirst).
subjective : Taking place within the mind and modified by individual bias.
objective : Undistorted by emotion or personal bias; based on observable phenomena.

The Three races in Starcraft II represent a triad of disparate components that make up our entire being and reality. So to master the game one must master all 3 Teams.

The Terran represent modern nature, and our external 'objective' environment. The surrounding atmosphere of our present civilization, which we have built out of Modern Science.
Science, being OUR understanding of nature. And technology our ACTUAL application of THAT science. The soundtrack for the Terran is familiar and comfortable, like modern society. Because
Civilization is protecting man from the uncontrollable forces of nature, which is cruel and chaotic for the most part. Things like Medical science, air-conditioning, communication, protect us.

The Protoss represent the spiritual inclination of man, which is often concealed in other practical acts, or brought into intellectual light by discussion of history and esoteric thought. The Protoss music is prophetic and sonorous sometimes, either putting one to sleep with tranquility or invoking a sullen tone. The Protoss appear holy and perfect even though fanatical factions exist within their being.

The Zerg, the race driven by pure force and desire to assimiliate and absorb their surroundings, represent the desire in Man to exist and consume. Occultly speaking, they are the Serpant
of desire inside us all which we must allay or direct with force and reason. We are after all maybe, irrational beings just capable of rational thought. Bhuda said the reason we reincarnate in human form and exist, ( and suffer ) is because of desire. The Zerg music is the most satifying and induces a surge of war and achieving purpose. They are that 'subjective' right of might that will prompt the certain individual.

SO technology + spirit + desire = creation

Xel'naga. A a perfect synthesis of Desire + Spirit. Without any desire or urge to shape 'civilization' with technology. That's why they're so cruel and intent on domination. A being with consciousness always tends to rise to the highest order of nature.. or destroy creation. Cos the act of destruction would be a testament to their glorious power. Life, I cannot for one second exist without expressing myself through the medium of technology. Laptop, cellphone, Coffee plunger. Kettle..

Ps. Thank you all! ; ) I place the Glossary in the beginning to introduce whatever piece I write. I am trapped in the realm of Bronze, trying to rise above. On the European ladder? Is it harder than the US I wonder.. The Korean must be the most difficult

I love this idea of yours. References to story line were too few, but i do appreciate the short length. I do also feel that though one race may be higher in one regard than another in someway, all three over lap.. Most of it comes down to a desire for some power..

the spectrum of wanting to consume, wanting safety from nature(through knowledge and science) and wanting purpose(through spirituality).

the terran, zerg, and protoss all want to just exist and consume, but the zerg want this more ebcause it is their motivation for fighting. Terran use scientific understanding to protect itself from nature but it also consumes a lot, like the zerg, to maintain what it wants. It needs to power its resource exhausting war machine. Also, the Terran do seek spiritual valuables, in the form of love. Jimmy Raynor and Kerrigan..

ANyways, interesting read, even if i can find some ways that i would improve it for my own enjoyment. 4 *
