Very good story. I'm looking forward to more of this type of story telling in the game. It was a spicy and thrilling story.

I wonder if Ayers will be an NPC in the game? She is a good candidate for Raynor's crew

I like the idea of building more and more cannon prior to the release. Gives those of us without the Beta something to do lol

plus of course a Douglas Adams reference doesn't hurt ("sometimes it equals 42")

@buhhy they didn't burrow so that they could force mutations in the zerglings by exposing them to the mold. If they just burrowed and destroyed the colony the Zerg wouldn't get anything out of it.


But the way I read it, higher Zerg lifeforms participated in the earlier break attempts but the numbers were dwindling per attack, it seems like the Zerg was unable to break the turtling terran. They then realized their lack of wall-breaking strains and set out to find one.


Maybe the Zerg would have done that had they not realized that the mold growing in the cave was triggering signs of mutations in the Zerglings. So, the Zerg decided to go ahead and use that opportunity to force rapid mutations in the Zerglings.

That was a really interesting story. + Show Spoiler +
The only thing I didn't like was the ending. It made it seem like the Terran would kill Ayers for just being a witness, which doesn't make sense and is not practical in any way. The Terran are definitely not good, exemplified by their constant apathetic abandonment of their troops to zerg forces (it's like the trademark of the Terran race) but what, they were going to execute Ayers and the other guy just because they're "evil" or something?

Makes no sense! What possible gains could they have from killing/locking away

I am of course referring to this:

I also know that I'm not going to see the end of this flight, that you're just the first and gentlest of the Dominion interrogators who will be visiting me. I've known ever since you brought me onboard with Lieutenant Orran. He's not going to see daylight either, is he?

Perhaps she is delusional... I guess she could just be exacting revenge, which is understandable but still kind of lame.

EDIT: Oh wow she took down the whole damn battlecruiser. Shit!


Spoiler for those silly people that read the comments before reading the whopping 6 pages of dialogue.

uh i didnt interpret it that way. imo it was because + Show Spoiler +
the fleet was listening and observing the entire time right? well, now they have survivors, first hand sources to the zerg experiment. thus, they would be valuable intel, and if they were allowed to go free, they could easily tell anyone and everyone what the terran fleet was doing (by not helping or responding to distress calls)

Think about it.

+ Show Spoiler +
As you've rightly pointed out, it's not the human race as a whole that are evil, at least in this universe. People like Raynor would never exist otherwise. But the Dominion is that corrupt. They're the horribly immoral set of Terran that left a small dispatch of civilians to be overrun, despite being wholly capable of saving them. Now imagine, are a corrupt set of officials, motivated by gaining information at the extent of human life, really going to let an intelligent, articulate survivor run around after she was a part of one of their 'experiments'? All signs point to no.

She rightfully guessed the Dominion weren't going to let her see the light of day again.

The most logical answer I can think of is that she went mad. She lived a disturbing experience on the colony. They were stranded there for so long without any hope that they end up thinking up stories and growing them beyond reality. She made them worse than they actually were because of what they did to her platoon and that colony. I would be pretty pissed to. It's also possible that the chemical of the first explosion did something to her.

This interpretation is correct. The story was quite well written, the only thing that bugs me is that the story is much too similar to the start of the Terran campaign in SC1.
