IMPORTANT - This piece is continued from these links :

INTRO : http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=382606
( I'm not so keen of my intro but don't have time to rewrite)
FIRST : http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=382781
SECOND : http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=383191

The void.
As I said before there is a second entity which negates my theory of the Xel'Naga. I shall give a brief summation of what I introduced in the previous writings. By comparison and deduction I affirmed that the Zerg race may be no older than 2000 - 3000 years old. I elucidated the position of Samir Duran and the extent of his visible power. That he serves a far greater power indicating he is a subordinate to something. Whether it be a literally a dormant power within nature or a dark master that is a living entity, shall yet be discerned. I gave hint that the UPL and the great purification are indicitave of an eventuality that may transpire upon Earth itself. The merging of all nations under one super-government and the union of a people under one single language. English. I pointed out a very strange anomaly that is left unquestioned, that the alien races communicate in english prior to encountering humanity. This is, of course, unavoidable for game dialogue to occur but taken literally is curious to consider. I highlighted the fact the Confederacy had known about the zerg for atleast a year before they appeared on Mar Sara. Although it is interesting note that Mengsk would request such an arbitrary mission for Raynor to undertake. Episode I - Terran mission 4. Ordering the latter to infiltrate a confederate installation only to steal data pertaining to 'weapon schematics' which incidentally, turn out to be the very design of the Psi Emittor.

Of the Xel'Naga.. I postulated that they engineered the Protoss race to fulfil a constituent mission in accordance with their great plan, yet failing unable to bring about the 'inception' of their subservient will. Instead they abandoned the protoss only to create a race susceptible to their instruction. A race that did not rely on technology. That was unified under one ruler. A ruler that is literally immortal, proved by the fact that his subordinate cerebrates would merge together to restore his throne. A being that cannot be killed by conventional protoss technology. I drew a definitive contrast between the regular protoss and the Dark Templar. The mannual explictely reveals the Dark Templar did not merge with the community as they feared their individual loss. Another mystery is their inordinate age. There is nothing to suggest that the Protoss do not have an infinite life span. The Protoss - if the inception of world domination was successfully interjected into their conscious - would have proved demonstrably fatal. A race that applied advanced technology, wielding psionic energy. It is questionable that eventually the Xel'Naga descended onto the Protoss homeworld and revealed themselves as Their Creators. The development of the ego is emphatically the reason, why the Xel'Naga abandoned the Protoss. In psychology, within the branch of psychoanalysis the ego simply means : the conscious mind. The word Self is defined as : A person considered as a unique individual.

Why would the Xel'Naga abandon a creation that has reached the culmination of perfection? Why would they declare the failure of psyionic unification upon the basis of the Ego? Unless there was a specific purpose they had yet to fulfil. A purpose which required them to capitulate to the direct instruction of a higher authority. Thus the Xel'Naga were forced to contrive something conducive to their will. Something that need not require the intelligence nor dependence concerning technology. A being that would travel space and endure time fixed upon a certain course. The overmind. To dive deeper into the biology I seek to depict, the incentive compelling him to orchestrate his journey. I said the Xel'Naga must have induced an emotional response within his nature. A surge of joy and power experienced within the act of assimilation and consumption. Cathexis : (psychoanalysis) the libidinal energy invested in some idea, person or object. The overmind proved to be very much conscious, by the fact he apparently created Kerrigan to free him from his existence, or something that would circumvent the great plan. But going back to being the overmind and what it experienced, we have no idea as to what he felt or experienced. He could've been a mass of organic fibre, where within the kinetic-dynamic of his neurology was forced to pulsate with the highest pain conceivable. And only by surrendering to the desire to consume and kill was there momentary respite from the pain. Though the overmind appears conscious and capable of decisive action. He EVEN experience sorrow when Zasz was murdered. "Behold my long silence is broken". However there is nothing to suggest he was a brilliant creation that would operate completely on instinctual demand. Another point to recite is that the Xel'Naga eventually descended upon Aiur to greet the Protoss. There was much celebration as they met their creators. Such a gesture, of seeking consort with your creation betrays a sense of love and relationship. Such as in christianity one seeks communion with the Creator and a relationship, such here should've been the great moment of revelation for the Protoss. Instead they are scorned and abandoned literally for 'eating from the tree of knowledge'. Genesis 3:22. "behold man has become as one of us, knowing good & evil, now lest ( fear of ) he puts forth his hand and eats also from the tree of life, we banish him from the Garden".

Indeed such notion of comparison can be identified with definitive verity.
And let us consider how strange for the Xel'Naga to arrive upon the pleasing and delightful ash-world of Zerus in hope to embrace the overmind and introduce themselves. It is claimed that the Xel'Naga were killed by the Zerg. It is said the overmind became aware of their ships hovering above the planet, severing the psychic link thus concealing his intent and drove the zerg into a frenzy thus consuming the ships. It is explicitly said the Zerg gained knowledge as a result growing in power, and too incorporating the Khaydarin Crystals. Now what scenario seems more plausible. A race inadvertently creating a creature with the capacity to accomplish this. Or the race, watching from afar acknowledging their success as the overmind destroys a dispensable fleet of their own kind, allowing the overmind to assimilate the data it acquired. Whatever the case may be I finally arrive at the second entity that has challenged my theory. My theory of course being that the Xel'Naga are human. This entity is of course the Dark voice within the void. What is this entity? It speaks from a nebulous dimension orchestrating events from afar. Yet it has a profile. It has a face. And too it has a purpose. The appearance of this dark voice is enough to completely neutralize my theory. The only hope to reconcile this being is to introduce concepts of transcendental precedence. The Voice within the void is the God whom the Xel'Naga have vested their power into.

Now pause as I quickly calm the diversity of thought precipitated by these words. Let us first reiterate the properties of a God. A God could be as conscious as a human. A Human could receive the power of a God. A God however, could be an unrestrained force of nature, ancient and devoid of direction. Remember that occultly speaking Man is the microcosm of the macrocosm. Eventually God could only express himself by the existence of man. Meaning of course, the inferior agrees with the superior but the superior does not exist WITHOUT the inferior manifesting and expressing HIS existence. Remember that a God differentiates between individuals and favours select creation. In fact the only way of defeating or destroy a God would be to vaporize those who inaugurate It / Him / Her. The Dark voice could be a God speaking from his dimension of immeasurable eternity, conscious YET still manifesting itself through key components, upon the physical world that corrolate to his dimension. However the further I research the more it becomes clear that Blizzard will hardly come close to matching my theory. And so it ends here, the speculation and synthesis of the Starcraft history. However from the very beginning I was clear that I did not seek to 'predict the SC II future'. I wished to use events and icons transpiring and illustrated in the game that paint a coherent brushstroke regarding OUR world. Events and key constituents, which when synthesized together contrive the Starcraft saga, yet when taken aside and analysed alone, purport much greater significance and conceal archetypes and allusions of impressive magnitude. However this exercise has been quite draining and I fear my words may eventuate into a negative response. Or that my entire conjecture, purports such ridiculous assertion that the audience grow ill already devoid of any desire to observe the final conclussion.

Basically the Xel'Naga I imagined were a group of elite immortal ghosts who stage-managed a series of political events, engineering the zerg race to fulfil a plan of world domination
