+Andrew Wolf hey, anyone here know khalani?
"An easy sentiment from one who is not *sending them to die!*"
"From one who is being *sent* to die!"
This part gives me chills every time.
Same
Same
That’s what I always come back for too
Is it wrong that i actually shed a tear when i heard " My life for Aiur" at the end ?
@@enzzodaniel866 nothing wrong with that, my life for aiur!
When "My life for Aiur" gets too deep.
Yeah, they said it slower!
If only humans could do the same...
Bartosz Skorupa humans would only unite if something bad happens(like wiping out more tha half the population). but we wont be as badass as kaldalis and artanis lol
supercoolguy43 420th like woot woot
Bartosz Skorupa Humans fight for home every day.
Loved recording the voice of Kaldalis for this project! The entire recording stage was set up with microphones so we could wander the room and play the scene as if we were on a film set! :)
How's Aiur?
that's incredible!
Good job man..
That sounds completely awesome! I would love nothing more than to work on voices in such a setting! It clearly shows, and it’s wonderfully done! Thank you!

"An easy sentiment from one who is not SENDING them to die!"
"From one who is being SENT to die!"
"A world for ALL Protoss, once more"
"Come back Artanis, lead us HOME."
"MY Life for Auir"
God, just the delivery of these lines alone are Oscar worthy
My wife for hire!
And it makes the meeting between Artanis and Zeratul shortly after (where Zeratul is saying the invasion must be paused, and Artanis responds that too much has been sacrificed and too many lives are now on the line to stop) all the more poignant.
Such a deeply religious and fanatical race. Seeing Artanis question the foolishness of his ancestors, and the importance of tradition, honor and sentiment when there is so much to lose is what made me really respect him as a character. Nothing interests me more than when a protagonist questions what is right and wrong, rather than the story being written in black and white. In the end, he still fights for what he believes is best for his people, while questioning the ways his own culture tends to think every step of the way.
***** I know they're a superior race, to question that would be extremely arrogant, at least in comparison to what humanity is portrayed as in this universe. But even they have their own flaws, which this video describes. It's like... "politics of the gods", if that makes any sense. They have their own sociological world, which in some ways is not too different from our own history. We unite each other with religion time and time again, but never fail to somehow find a way to destroy ourselves over it.
Well said sir. That also the reason why I like Artanus too. He does his actions for the sake of his people, he really has good traits of a leader. Also how he questions his actions and thinks before he acts, that is a good trait of any being. What is even better quality he has is his decision not to repeat history.
That's exactly why I consider Artanis to be a great leader.
"and they used to be primitive as we are once too"
still they could use telepathy even as "primitives" :p
much wow True, but their mental abilities were much less complex in those times. The creation of the Khala enabled the Protoss to actually feel eachothers feelings, along with the ability to sort all of those countless voices and feelings and understand them all in an endless stream - a constant state of euphoria where a single person could know the exact thoughts and feelings of literally trillions of others within a certain range in distance while being able to process that data without being overwhelmed. Before that, the basics of Protoss telepathy could be compared to a text message. You cannot tell the tone and you cannot truly know if the message is a lie. With the Khala, it was impossible to lie.
That's why Artanis goes through a bit of culture-shock when he goes around living without the Khala after being connected with it all his life prior - he said he feels so "dark and alone" like he's not really there anymore with his people even when physically being surrounded by them on his ship or on the battlefield. He goes through an interesting process of learning how to understand and trust the same kind of natural sense of empathy that we humans and the other Khala-less protoss have been relying on.
When Kaldalis said "My life for Aiur" I shed a tear
For my first time watching this, or anyone for that matter? Who hadn't?
+Philippe I wonder what happened to him. He didn't even appear in LotV campaign.
+Bekir Can Celep *Spoilers* He was Akhundelar. He might have died, or worse becoming a slave to Amon.
+August Sadolin Too bad, we thought we can play Kaldalis, or at least see him
+Bekir Can Celep I think he is the Zealot in the first trailer.
oh artanis how far you've gone you were just once a naked scout pilot now youre an executor in full armor
+Sumail Artanis was the Executor in the first game.
+Sean Trevathan I think Sumail means Hierarch in full armor.
+Sean Trevathan he was only a praetor back then
+Abraxisvirus He was an executor with aldaris sent by the conclave to advice him which is played by the player (You). Then became praetor when Aiur fell.
Yes, zeitgeist
“If I doubt, so will they.”
Because they will feel his uncertainty through the Khala.
Kaldalis probably had felt that first, so he might be the first to peek his leader's feelings. That's why he warped in and find him
"My life for Aiur". This phrase never weighted that much until I watched this video.
My life for the Earth
Hits even harder after zeratul says it.
MY WALLET FOR AIUR.
+That guy who gives the only dislike Only currency on Aiur are stones :P.
+Zdzisław Ziętek Correction!. Mineral cristals and Vespene gas!
oh and don't forget you need additional Pylons!

I have forgotten.
hey its:
your FACE for HIRE
+That guy who gives the only dislike May your wallet see honor in battle.
Yep, this is awesome.
+Jesse Cox Hi jesse
+Feral Reason Hahaha no...
+reffan16 the second one was fun in its own way, it just wasn't an rts.
+Doug T do you actually understand what RTS stands for?
+Feral Reason original sc its the way
That was the most meaningful "My life for Aiur" I've ever heard.
i still weighted zeratul's more than this a little
lol, I remember when Artanis was just piloting around a Scout. he's come so far :')
hero unit can pilot a lot of things. Like Tassadar from a high templar that can attack to pilot a carrier that ram the overmind
Lol yeah. And he used to have pleb cloth armour too. Now he's pretty pimped out.
Either I skipped this or Tia scene wasn't in the game.
@@timinatr99 it isn't in the game :))
I remember playing as artanis in the first game, commanding protoss in the campaign.

Sickest body chills during that line.. Sickest body chills ever!

manly tears were shed....
MY EYES FOR AIUR
Pfft men aren't men. The nuances of these characters and races doesnt ascribe to the smallness of man women demo rep race religion. These are just better beings
and sighs has been forgotten too
2023 and this still one of the best Starcraft content ever created by Blizzard.
they gave up on it unfortunately.. it met the last update on 5.0...
LET US GET A STARCRAFT MOVIE PLEASE!!!!
phoimer depends on who they work with its not just the studio
+M Perez I think to disney have the resources for this proyect
plzzzzzz movie needed many just like this and if possible like the trailer
The problem is the story most of it is covered by games & cutscenes except for the xelnaga but it will be uncovered in legacy of void
HornyTrolllololololool Dude the whole game is a lore more mysterious then destiny
4:48 Kaldalis: "Come back, Artanis... lead us hooome." That yearning in his voice there always gets me. T.T
Love the voice acting here in combination with the epic music in the background.
My LIFE for AIUR!
Goosebumps!
I totally agree! It wasn't a simple request, but the tone contained a "Come on... you know that only you can lead us home, you know that you must." feeling. Simply amazing!
Any bets he was being influenced by Amon?
Did anyone else get goosebumps when Kaldalis said "come back Artanis, lead us home!"?
Wait whos Kaldalis again?
Amen.
Whenever I feel depressed, I come to one of the SC2 cinematics and just listen to it. Focus on everything in it and nothing else outside, trying to say quotes with the characters. I started crying midway through, when Kaldalis said "From one who is being sent to die".
Even though I'm a Zerg at heart, I will always love the Protoss. So noble and proud. Something I could never be.
me too omg…
There are many definitions of noility and pride. To each their own...
lead us home, vixie
Be proud, warrior
congrats, you discovered meditation.
I love this type of content.
I loved it too! I just wonder what this is? Is this a cinematic from the campaign? Is it just some short story? What is this and why?
+LowkoTV is it just me? or does Lowko look really short in that pic? its like he's 5'2 or something
+LowkoTV I love it too!
+Dillon Layton It's a short cinematic, a teaser of what is to come in LotV.
+LowkoTV me too
You truly have to admire Artanis as a leader. He is a warrior and will not hesitate to kill for the greater good, yet he has a high value for life and feels great responsiblity in sending his men into battle, into what is essentially a suicide mission. He doubts himself and his leadership by reflecting on the history of his people, fearing their destruction more than his own. Individuals like Artanis are a rare find, but one that should be cherished when met.
Artanis would get alone well with most versions of Optimus Prime...
a world for all protoss once more (tears)
YOU made me believe in that...
*tears* :'(
+KeViNZP
My life for Aiur
I wonder do they shed tears
The most depressing part of this trailer is that Kaldalis actually did die in the story. One of the AI personalities in Fenix’s kit (who are based on dead protoss) is Kaldalis. We need a RIP for our one eyed Zealot. The tip of the spear.
Press f to pay respect.
The existence of a Purifier version of a Templar does not guarantee that the particular Templar is dead. While the likelihood that Kaldalis didn't survive the surface battle is high because being a vanguard deployed soldier pretty much almost guarantees that, it is still possible that he is alive as only the Purifiers posses the technology to copy personalities. Because contrary to what one might assume, Dragoons, Stalkers and Immortals are not copied personalities but a new mechanical body and the Templar inside are still the exact same original Templar before they got inserted into the mech.
So if Kaldalis lived long enough, up to the point that Artanis found and reactivated the Purifiers then that would mean that Kaldalis is still alive. Because the Auir Reclamation happened before the Purifier Discovery and Reactivation. Because only then would they be able to copy his personality into the Purifier Database and not before that. Remember they copied Fenix when he got inserted into a Dragoon, which means his original body was already destroyed but his mind was intact.
Of course the 99% copy would likely be impossible at that point. I believe the Khala had somehing to do with the precision of the copied personality, but that is no longer available to them since they've severed their Nerve Cords.
F
Kaldalis is the zealot without the eye. Hes not dead at the end of legacy.
but there is no official info on his death
My life for Aiur
+Wow Jedi We are the Kun'delar! The Spear of Justice! Fight for the Glory of our people, fight for the light of Saalok, Fight...for the Glory of the Protoss!
+Ameya Vaidya Kun'delar roughly translates to Vanguard. The frontal assault team of an invading force.
I know :D
Ahh, so he is the one eyed Zealot from the trailer
+David Henchman How do you spell his name?
Dan Spataru Not sure, sorry :(
+Dan Spataru I'm goint to assume Kel'danis (Or Kel'daris) or something along those lines.
+Dan Spataru I think Khaldaris, maybe?
+David Henchman Khaldaeris ?
"Do you not see the symmetry, in this moment?"
Wonderfully poetic.
That was the right time to say that.
didn't know leviathans were part of the swarm during the first invasion
Gabriel Barsch They were, shortly after the Overmind was created on Zerus, he needed a way for the zerg to get off of Zerus, as the zerg was quickly diminishing Zerus, that's when the some behemoths (precursors of leviathans) came to the Zerus system, so the Overmind lured them to Zerus only to assimilate them into the swarm as leviathans.
@@nicholascox9547 i think it might be similar to knowing dysneyland exists and actually seeing it
I’m inclined to believe that the ones that served the Overmind weren’t as big or destructive. Kerrigan evolved them to be massive and gave them attacks.
The overmind could create wormholes between worlds.
@@Subzwari1987 so just mega overlords?
Can't believe how emotional this is. Almost fell in tears ""WHY?" "Because I know of no higher honor!"
The line "A world for all Protoss, once more." hit me hard, man!
+KeViNZP "Come back Artanis, Lead Us Home" My life for Aiur!
+KeViNZP same
Such a beautiful hand drawn scene, where a follower, knowing full well he may be the first to die, restores faith in the one he follows. He restores that faith because his leader gave him cause to believe. "A world for all protoss." En taro Adun. En taro Tassadar. En taro Artanis.
+Nathan Mojica
En taro Zeratul
Watching this 5 years later and it still gives me shivers.
Best thing Blizzard has made in the past 10 years
En Taro Adun, En Taro Tassadar, En Taro Zeratul. You have given your lives for Aiur, now rest brave heroes.
Why got no En Taro Fenix 😭😭
en taro Tassadar.
Is that guy Khaldaris the same lead zealot from the opening cinematic? Cause if so he's boss af.
+Andrew Leung He is. :D
+Andrew Leung - Thanks Andrew! I was honored to give voice to Kaldalis! "My Life For Auir"
+Stephen Stanton You're voice really fits the character and his physique. Thanks for the great work.
+Gurren Catnip - And thank you for the kind words Gurren! :)
+Stephen Stanton absolutely awesome - you can literally feel the strength of Kaldalis' will through whole dialog. Briliant!
I've seen this trailer countless times and I still get the chills...
"My life for Aiur" will never have the same meaning.
I legit cry everitime i see this . The protoss made up my childhood and even now, their heroism just overwhelms me.
En taro Tassadar, Executor.
+Darasilverdragon It's En taro Adun
+Provyseals Both have been used lol
+Timothy Tan tru
+Provyseals it's either
+Provyseals They're both terms used by the Protoss to honor past figures (En Taro means something close to "honor to")
About 50% of these comments are "My Life for Aiur!"
+Caleb Yu if you were standing there, in that moment, you would say the same :)
4 words....a lifetime's worth of meaning.
+Caleb Yu *My wife for hire !*
+Caleb Yu And you comment is 50% "My life for Aiur!". How ironic.
+Caleb Yu Never before has the phrase had so much meaning.
Artanis: "An easy sentiment from one who is not sending them to die!"
That's the most powerful line beside "My life for Aiur" in this trailer.
That was a very good line. But the counter argument of Kaldalis was the one that gave me chills.
That one and his focus on the lives lost during the fall were the most impactful if you ask me. He is a very compassionate protoss who cares deeply about the lives of those under his command, not something you get to see often.
Artanis voice actor is amazing, how he put so many feeling when he talks
I pray that protoss with the missing eye is a major character, he is badass here and he is BADASS in the cinematic trailer
+Skittlez12350 He'll definitely be a hero Zealot.
+Skittlez12350 Guess he is the replacement for Fenix
***** no one can replace fenix D:
Now this is a good story.
+MrDarkenson they pretty much told a hour's worth of story in the deepest 5 mins you could ever get.....
+Matej Polyak But there were arbiters in the ending scene, doesn't that count as something? :L
+Matej Polyak
Lol, most of those heroes are dead, only a few of them became Martyrs, like Fenix, Raynor mentions him in HotS, also, The Confederacy and the UED are gone, they where wiped. Cerebrates are useless now, the Overmind is dead, and Kerrigan doesnt need them, the closest thing to a cameo was Daggoth's Brood.
tassadar was there in Wings of Liberty and passes on the final piece of the puzzle to Zeratul at the start of Legacy of the Void.
WIth that final piece, Zeratul rushes to reach Artanis, who he believes will be critical in the final phase of the legend, along with Kerrigan.
+MrDarkenson no it's not lol. the story has not been good since brood war.
This has got to be the most genuine and sincere voice acting I have ever heard. 10/10
Say, isn't Kaldalis the guy in the opening cinematic leading the charge?
I think it is
Herpvid de Derp yes
Yes, you can see here that Kaldalis has a zerg claw wound on his face, and one of his eyes is blinded. One of the Zealots in the opening cinematic has the same injuries. Kaldalis also said that he wanted to be among the first to land on Aiur, thus we can assume that squad of 3 Zealots, 2 High Templars, and 1 Probe were the "Tip of the Spear"
Yah it is man.
Very sad and strange that he wasn't a character in the campaign.
My guess is he became one with the kalla during the battle:(.
Yes, the Akhundelar is sent to place the first pylon on the surface (i guess the zerg destroyed the others), so the rest of the army can warp in
I think the question we are all hoping Legacy of the Void will answer is just how exactly do the Protoss eat?
+rjcripe tru
+rjcripe photosynthesis or a form of it
+rjcripe and reproduce.
+rjcripe Khalai Protoss (the regular ones) absorbs sunrays much like plants but in an far more effective manner, in one of the Dark Templar Saga books an Protoss prisoner was kept underground for a few days and was hardly able to stand on her own legs when she was brought to the surface.
Dark Templars im not sure but it relates to their genetical difference from the rest, some extreme change made them be able to survive in areas without sun after their exile.
+rjcripe Straws
Dear starcraft writers,
please visit the warcraft department and save the game.
Thanks
Sadly they didn't listened lol.
Specifically the writers of this cinematic. Please kindly leave the ones who came up with Xel’naga Kerrigan and tentacled space satan at the door.
Before you send them to Warcraft, they should sit down in their own department and GIVE US MORE LORE
(Please make the Khalai Dictionary?)
Thanks... you turned Sylvanas into Kerrigan.
We knew not what we asked of them, our foolishness to believe in them only lead to our downfall, reforged, a disaster which swept across Earth. Wiping out millions of blizzard fans over the span of a few days. Truly, we have brought this cataclysm upon ourselves.
3:54 . . My heart skipped a beat.
Years has past and this still touching
I swear that is more than 200 supply of ships at the end.
Must be 2v2
David Harford hax
I think blizzard would make more money if they make movies. LOL
+DopestDope SquareEnix have thought of that too about their FF, but in the end, the movie production cost was even bring their studio to brink of destruction.
so, well, umm...
and.. they already have a cash cow. because of WOW
sKy sharK But i wonder why this isn't going through their minds, like normal people
+Raa Senja Ni (SECTION) Saw some professional animator in the comments section of another youtube video saying otherwise. He said it isn't as expensive as everyone makes it out to be and that Blizzard could well do it if they chose.
+DopestDope let wait and see what will happen to Warcraft movie first. If the movie gets a good amount of profit then its not impossible to see a Warcraft movie in the near future. 5 to 10 years of waiting perhaps
4:23
Artanis: Sorry, what? Was just checking my Protoss watch.
I wish Kaldaris had shown up in the campaign. He seems pretty cool.
I read that as "Khardasians"... Wtf is wrong with my eyes.
+LieutenantAlaki like artansis said many do not survive the first wave....
Kaldaris totally would've.
+LieutenantAlaki he did in the opening cinematic he was the last zealot
But Kaldahlis die becuse he is an A.I in fenixses army.
"I've Lived for Aiur"
"Complete the Protoss campaign on brutal difficulty without letting a single Protoss die."
:P
There is actually someone who managed to do that

This is some of the best dialog ever in StarCraft II.
This is how you incorporate exposition powerfully.
Gotta watch this again 5 years later
"My life for Aiur" I never have thought the true meaning of that chant until I saw this video.
He have a mass rellay on his back. Starcraft - Mass Effect crossover confirmed.
Stargate*
+TheTeslaEffect11 Rather Xel'naga. Protoss are more like Quarians :P
Except the Quarian Fleet is just a bunch of civilian ships with large cannons sloppily tacked on.
The Protoss Golden Armada is the single most powerful fleet in the Korprulu sector with the exception of the United Earth Dictoriate Expeditionary Fleet.
They more like a combination of Turian and Asari wielding tech that makes the Proteans look like Krogans.
Poor protoss. They always have to struggle to survive. No matter what. Nothing gives them a break.
This never gets old. Still sends chills.
FOR AIUR!
Wow Jedi
Saying that battlecry while putting Taunt on others. LOL how bold indeed.
+MarkaNLNL
Nakh' Ungala! (Dragoon)
I don't play protoss. I am zerg. Forever. It's the only race worth playing for me. And still.. this video almost made me cry. Such amazing storytelling. I am completely hooked and hyped for LotV. I can't wait to see how the story of the protoss unfolds and i will micro my zergie heart out to help them reclaim their home! :)
My life for aiur!
Didnt the swarm mother end up fighting that side of her and used her abilities to kill the zerg that went feral and clean up her mess and ains?
It's a very forgiving race for noobs
This video is my motivation on hard days. Even after three years.
i love when Kaldalis confident enough that he had delivered his point... then, said "my life for aiur", then teleports...
God this made me cry.
I mean uh... I'd assume we retake Aiur about half-way through in the campaign, so we get a story of taking on Amon.
+Toa Onua 5:13 The massive size of the Golden Armada just made me squeal in an ecstatic way.
+Toa Onua im pretty sure that taking it is the 1st mission
+Abraxisvirus and then Amon makes a mess of things
+Toa Onua Perhaps it'll pull a mass effect and Amon will make his final stand on Aiur.
+Toa Onua I think it's actually the first three missions of the campaign are reclaiming Aiur.
So he is the protoss with one eye in the main trailer of legacy of the void
Yep
I don't even play starcraft but those last words made me tear up :c
Regardless of Starcraft, that line shows that heroes like Kaldalis are the ones who allow freedom. Like another character in the game, Jim Raynor, who is famous for saying, "freedom is worth fighting for."
after 15 years sounds clear to me "my life for aiur"😊
what?
Really? xD well at least you didn't hear it in spanish (mi vida por auir) xD
Everytime I’m using Tempests and hear them say “the Golden Armada awaits” this moment comes to my mind 5:15
Shut up and take my minerals!!! :D
All they say in this video is so deep...makes me shiver everytime i look at it and listen to it...
I love this so much. It's not even fully animated. And it carries so much weight and power. Imagine if this was a scene in the StarCraft movie.
This dialogue is legendary.
4:42 artanis remembering Tassadar and his mision also his sacrafice. Why nobody get realized about these curiosity.
I've watched this a dozen times. Though this doesn't have fancy effects and CGI, that last line keeps giving me goosebumps. An epic legacy comes to a close.
"To make a world for all Protoss once more. You made me believe in that" - me in tears, I'll admit it 😭
This aged well :)
I honestly wish my brothers and sisters of all humanity would take this one cinematic into account. It just shows we are in this together no matter what. We are family, regardless.
DEATH TO THE COMMIE HERETICS
EXILE THEM TO THE MOON
MY LIFE FOR URTHAAAA
This is based upon the teachings of Hinduism..... The Vedantic philosophies....
My life...for Terra.
THE VOICE ACTING ITS TOTALLY ON POINT...PERFECT IN MY OPINION
This scene, always sends a tear to my eye. I'd gladly repeat "My Life for aiur"
Artanis look wiser and stronger now compared to the one on Broad War.
+Moses Wong He was a mere scout back then in Brood war.
he may had been an scout only, but wasnt that bad to be the youngest preator ever
I think that an average protoss can live up to 1500 years...so he is pretty young
+Mauricio Alejandro Rivera Miraval And in vanilla SC1, you ARE Artanis.
Alistair Jephte Caseñas That's been cut, the developers admitted that they were wrong. Preators are lower on the ladder(rank) than executors. So you, as the player, couldn't have been Artanis since he would go from being an executor, a higher member of the hierarchy, to being a praetor.
One of the most epic conversations in SC II, at least for me. Reminds me of the old sc with brilliant voice acting and sentences.
This is by far my favorite Starcraft cinematic/trailer of all time, it's a fantastic form of foreshadowing.
it's 2022 and i'm crying
well poops.. I'm all emotional because of some space aliens without lips emoting the shit out of em selves ;(
Well.......... It isn't really just two aliens isn't it? It's like the core philosophies of humanity as well. How you wouldn't want to send soldiers to their deaths, and how willing the soldiers are to serving their people.
+KeViNZP murica?
zionchar11 They'd rather have their soldiers come back alive. Who wouldn't?
KeViNZP well... I don't like to debate on this but they tend to send soldiers on things that not even exist... *cough* uranium on iraq *cough*
zionchar11 Not even gonna press the issue. We're looking at a video about a sci-fi game, and we reach a discussion about politics. That's too quick of a discussion, if you ask me. Way beyond the topic I want to discuss, as well.
Jesus, absolute chills at the ending!
So many years later...still gives me goosbumps
Been almost 3 years since I saw this, and it still strikes me, the way Artanis says "My life for Auir" at the end. His voice seemed.. comforted, like his fears/self doubt was assuaged by Kaldalis and a great weight lifted off his chest.
If Artanis is worried about fighting the zerg, i wonder how much he will be concerned about fighting with fallen
+Marcin Zyśko he's not worried about fighting zerg. He doubts if reclaiming Aiur is good enough reason to send his warriors to die. He's unsure if protoss will have better future on Aiur and he doesn't really want to send his warriors just to reclaim a piece of protoss past.
He has a plan. Won't give you a clue, but you'll find out when LoTV comes.
+jevgenkova Agreed. He states very early on in the conversation that there are very few protoss left (compared to before the fall of Aiur) and that he sends so many to die.
"Fear is for the enemy"
- A really badass zealot
I literally cried a little when Artanis looked at Aiur with his eyes opened wide and said "a world for all Protoss once more."
This is better than all of the ingame SC2 story combined... very sad
Could anyone write a transcript please? Theres no subtitle yet. Thank you!
+Nessaj the LóL Here ya go, not sure about Kaldalis' name though. Also thanks to Ryan Kim for a correction that has been edited in ^^
"I wish to be alone, Kaldalis."
"Your warriors question your whereabouts..."
(sighs) "We are an ancient people. There are few of us left.. and tomorrow.. I send so many to die."
"If you doubt our capabilities...."
"I do not doubt *them*, old friend... I doubt my own motives. And if I doubt, so..will they.."
"What cause could be more noble than reclaiming our home?"
"Aiur is our past, but is it our future?"
"Aiur is our *heritage*!"
(sighs) "The aeon of strife is also our heritage. We do not cling to it, or want it's return. We acted no better than animals, and nearly drowned Aiur in our own blood..."
"But from that conflict, the great Khas opened our minds.. he brought us the glory of the Khala.. and our every emotion, our every thought, became as one.. with the Khala, we found unity.. we rose from our failings, we made Aiur a beacon of progress in the galaxy, the envy of the stars..."
"But in the glory of the Khala's light, so sure of our righteous destiny, we once again turned on our brothers."
"You speak of the Dark Templar."
"Yes. They chose to reject all that we are, and sever themselves from the Khala. We branded them heretics, tried to destroy them. We had forsaken our unity. And like the Aeon of Strife, that division made us weak. We were punished by fate for our weakness. Because of our certainty, Aiur fell to the zerg."
"I watched our home burn. Our honor lost."
"Countless *lives* lost! ..There will be more bloodshed in this invasion. More friends fallen. Because we cling to an ideal that may have passed."
"I refuse to accept that. Do you not see the symmetry in this moment? Driving the dark templar away was a sin. But today, because you have united us, we fight together. The lives lost tomorrow.. will be the price of our future."
"An easy sentiment from one who is not sending them to die!"
"From one who is being *sent* to die! I will be among the first to spill Zerg blood. I am a Khun'Dalar, the tip of the spear!"
"A Khun'Dalar... few will survive the first wave...why?"
"Because I know of no higher honor. I volunteered for a chance to give my life for our home.. to make a world for all Protoss once more.. *you*, made me believe in that."
"A world for all Protoss once more.. it will be because of warriors like you."
"Come back, Artanis... lead us home..."
"Kaldalis..."
"My life for Aiur.."
"My life...for Aiur."
+Sato Thank you so much!
Nessaj the LóL
Happy to help a fellow fan! ^^
+Sato You're the hero that Aiur deserves.
Bless you, my son.
+Sato When he says "but from that conflict, the great cost opened our minds", he actually says "the great *Khas* opened our minds". Khas is a protoss templar who first created the Psionic Link that now exists in every protoss. His name means "He who brings order"
One of the best dialouges ever written.
Still greatest and epic... 2021..
2020 and it still gives me chills.
Brought a tear to me eye..
I would kill for a starcraft movie about the protoss and the fight for Aiur
Templars and Gentlemen. I announce we shall all call trailers "short movies" from now on. entaro Tassadar!
Why not cutscene? :P
KeViNZP Because cutscene is a lesser term >:D
mateo rivera Just to make it more recognizable, as the game calls it cutscenes, I prefer to call them cutscenes. :P
KeViNZP yeah, iwas just makng pressure on blizzard to make a movie on starcraft rather than warcraft, using my enormous polithical influence :P it was a nice thought tho
