Artanis Kills Zeratul on Aiur (Starcraft 2: Legacy of the Void | Protoss Dark Templar Death)

Zeratul and his forces came under attack by corrupted protoss. Zeratul suspected that a hybrid had enslaved them. He contacted Selendis, but she too had fallen silent. He was contacted by Artanis, who was in the midst of succumbing to Amon's corruption of the Khala. Zeratul's own Khalai allies turned on him, and he was forced to flee. He headed for Artanis, forced to battle against his former allies. Eventually, he made it to Artanis. Zeratul urged Artanis to sever his nerve cords, as they were the Khalai's gestalt to the Khala. Zeratul moved to remove them, but Artanis parried his blow. With red eyes and a red psi-blade, Artanis rose, as Amon spoke through him. Soon, Amon had the upperhand. With a final blow, Zeratul was able to sever Artanis's appendages, freeing him from Amon's grasp. However, it was at the cost of Zeratul's life. Artanis rushed over and cradled Zeratul's body, watching as it collapsed to dust in his arms. All that was left was Zeratul's warp blade gauntlet, which Artanis took with him and wielded on his right hand until the end of the war...► Watch more Starcraft 2 videos: bit.ly/1b1W2yY.

After hearing "my life for Aiur" 70 billion times during the first game, I never thought they'd be able to make it an epic line.

[@rory8182]

It changes meaning when it goes from a generic battle cry that could be replaced with "for my people", "go fuck off" or "your mother". But when it is Zeratul trying to make up for losing Auir, for not seeing Amon's plans soon enough, for all his personal failings, then it hits hard

[@snakeman830]

I would say that's because this time, it's no battle cry, but naming the price he's going to pay.

[@JB-xl2jc]

​@@rory8182Indeed.... atonement for him. It was from Zeratul's mind that the Overmind first plucked the location of Aiur, precipitating its fall. No doubt that weighed heavily on him.

[@shuttlecrossing1433]

Given the Dark Templar lost Aiur long ago, and Zeratul cost the Protoss Aiur to the Zerg, it hits a lot harder to hear Zeratul saying it.

[@mio87]

I think Artanis should die here then we playing as Zeratul in Protoss campagin

[@doctor-6123]

If not for Zeratul then all would have perished. He followed the clues that foretold the fact that without Kerrigan, all would perish, then he set the dominoes in motion.

[@TheThanatos34]

After everything he's been through, after everything the Protoss have done to him, Zeratul's final battle cry is "My life... for Aiur." Not for Shakuras, but for Aiur. He never forgot his true homeworld and everything he did was done for the sake of his people. Just chills, man. This scene is amazing.

[@B.Scruby]

It's even more powerfully selfless when you realize that Zeratul was not born on Auir. He was born on Shakuras. The only two Dark Templar that were old enough to remember Auir were Raszagal (1045 years old at the time of her death) and Mohandar (around 1150 aroud after the events of Brood Wars, right before he died). Raszagal was born on year 1455. The Nerazim were established on Shakuras on the year 1500. Raszagal was around 45 years old when they got banished. But Zeratul was born 1865. 365 years after the Nerazim were banished from Auir. So knowing this we could assume that Zeratul was not born on Auir. So the Nerazim really never did forget their responsibility to Auir despite no longer living there as Zeratul had said in SC1.

[@rektl2036]

All dark templar still view aiur as their origin and have true love for it despite being outcast. Well almost, as it was fostered in their culture.. That while they do not need or want the khalal, their planet is a different story. Regular aiur protoss were against them, but the animosity wasnt mutual on many cases.

[@spikem5950]

@@B.Scruby It is... Interesting. Starcraft 1's lore in the manuals tell a different story. The date of the Discord was never explicitly stated and Zeratul's page made it out to be like he was born on Aiur and always remembered his homeworld. Of the many retcons Starcraft 2 made that I hated, while this one does pose many of the same inconsistencies, it does leagues for making Zeratul's selfless actions here impactful and makes it a net benefit for the story. I wish the same could be said of the other retcons made.

+ Luxai Yep, banished from both sides and called as a traitor by the Templars and the Dark Templars. Templars already look down on Zeratul because he is a Dark Templar. On top of it, Zerg Overmind found out the location of Aiur because Zeratul killed Zasz (briefly able to read each others' mind) and accidentally revealed Aiur. Dark Templars also see Zeratul as a traitor because he killed Matriach Raszagal.

Zeratul is a true hero. He told Jim that he must save Kerrigan and dont let her die. He told Kerrigan that she must mutate into the primal zerg. He saved Artanis and told him the way to win Amon. Whole his life Zeratul was exploring galaxy and was finding the true about world. If there aren't be Zeratul, everything be gone.

[@nekotamo5154]

When a swordsman no longer cares about saving his own life his offensive potential increases dramatically, as shown here by Zeratul. He decided freeing Artanis is more important than his life, so he charged forward only thinking of cutting off Artanis' neural cords and leaving himself wide open to the blades.

@@gyppygirl2021 They longed for the acceptance of their people, but didn't want to use the Khala. In some way the ending is the one that's perfect to the Nerazim, since all the protoss are freed from the Khala there is no longer this religious barrier that separates them so they can unite again.

I just realized: Zeratul sounds a lot like Optimus Prime.

His old voice suited him better. But sadly the original voice actor died before SC2.

I am not that deep into Starcraft lore but I like the idea of the wise old sage wizard like character being given a meaningful death by liberating and saving the next in line who is basically the new hope.
