Newrand Citadel story

Origins

What went before

Timeline sector: During the Brood Wars Protoss Mission "The Insurgent"
Location sector: Kilmorian Space Waystation, Dark side of Gamite Moon

The lights were poorly fused as the room resembled that of a dank corrider. If the Humans and the figure to the oppostie of the table of Kilmora were not there then this room indeed would be a dank corrider. The figure spoke.

"Are we in agreement?"

"So," Kilmora began, "If what your saying is true, then they've been helping my... adversaries. So they themselves are just as guilty as my enemies."

"Yes, you're correct. What about your adversaries? Why do you hate them so?"

"You really wanna know?"

"Yes, if this will cause a rupture between your two populaces, I at least want to know why."

"My adversaries you ask.... They killed my entire family, my siblings... but I was not there that morning. I was hunting... they never found me. That is their undoing. On that morning, on that backwater colony they descended upon-"

A whirring beep began from the figures wrist.

"Maybe next time. I'm needed." The figure blurted.

With that a brilliant blue swirl began to materialize around the figure, breifly lighting his torrid complexion. Then as soon as the blue swirl had begun it ended. The figure was gone.

"Recall. Unattentive bastard." Kilmora finished as he headed out of the room with his officers following.

What happens now

Timeline sector: During the Brood Wars Protoss Mission "Countdown"
Location sector: Xel'Naga Temple, Main Protoss Base, Shakuras

"How many?"

"What?" Responded the dumbfounded Zealot.

"How many have you killed?"

An explosion vibrated the temple walls.

"You mean, how many Zerg have I killed."

"Yes."

"I don't count how many Zerg I kill. It's not honorable to take glory upon death."

"Is it honorable for the Zerg to invade Shakuras and its moons? To decimate the Aiur Protoss?"'

"No..."

"But enough, all should be corrected when the Temple is activated. So tell me, what moon were you recalled from in order to defend this temple?"

"Ah," Began the Zealot "I hail from the Drenari moon, I am sub-council Executor to their forces. You? I assume you are some sort of low level warrior from your markings."

"Of course."

"So I outrank you don't I?"

"It all matters upon your perception doesn't it? If I had told you I was Zephlot of the Onakus government you would have not been the wiser."

"Zephlot? The founder of the Onakus moon?"

"Yes."

"Didn't he-"

"Yes."

"But before that he-"

"That too."

"You're not let-"

"Letting you finish? You're correct. In fact I need to proceed to the outside, the fight can always use more warriors." The Protoss began to walk away.

"What moon did you say you were from again?" asked the Zealot

"I didn't. Onakus. Fifth moon of Shakuras."

"But-"

The Onakus Protoss interrupted him, "You talk too much. There's a battle raging outside. Join me."

"Yes... Zephlot."

What is to come

Timeline sector: Unknown
Location sector: Unknown

What is to come cannot be foretold,

For the future looks bleak, save a few souls,

The Triad and Two will overcome all,

If not stripped of its power by a Zealot's call,

This call will be brazen, this call will be weak,

It'll lead the desert moon, to the sanctity it seeks,

This call could be heard, it could fall on deaf ears,

All that is known, is that the challenge lies here.
