    I know that, but what if Khas went in search of the Xel'Naga because he felt that the Protoss had now become the race the Xel had always wanted them to be?

    ...if he thought that the protoss were perfect, then why try the hybrid?

    You guys don't have to be such perfectionists about it. It's a very plausible idea, and it wouldn't be THAT hard to figure out a reason for Khas to want to go find the Xel.

    I said he felt that the Protoss had become the race the Xel wanted them to be. Maybe upon finding them he realised, or they convinced him, that they were still flawed and he himself became obsessed with the perfect race. It's only a theory, I know it's a long shot!

    Maybe there was even something bigger and older and was he xel, khas, duran and so much else. Maybe he infiltrated the xel too, manipulating them into doing stuff with races to get them to perfection. Later maybe he became troubled about the link between all the protoss and tried to get it right (because otherwise they wouldn't become anything decent?) and now is trying to combine it now the 2 races are close together. Hell, he maybe even drove the overmind in attacking the xel so they found out where the protoss were living.

    maybe... but i dont see how they could have done that with the tech they had back then
    but he said that he served a greater power, and there would be no reason to lie. so he either serves them or someone we haven't heard of

    Maybe he himself is the higher power, in which case he's an omnipotent son of a gun! ;D

    He might be Lucifer, in which case the "I am many" argument explains why he refers to himself in the third person. :eek: ;D

    Hm, that's possible too. He seems well practiced at manipulation, considering how well he did two entire races.

    And he obviously has a rather driving need to create these hybrids.

    Only time will tell.


    And the Overmind didn't learn the location of Aiur from the Xel'Naga, it learned it from Zeratul.

    Something I found odd to be honest, I mean when the Overmind touched with the Xel'Naga he gained all their knowledge, I would have thought they would know where Aiur was.

    He knew where Aiur has, but he thought that the Zerg were no match for the Protoss, given their weak psionic powers, compared to the Protoss' strong psionic powers. So when they got to the Korpulu sector, they found the Terrans and tried successfully to absorb them and their psionic potential (Kerrigan)...

    ...no. it specifically stated in episode 2 that the overmind learned the location of aiur from zeratul. they wanted the terrans to battle the protoss, but they didn't know where the protoss homeworld was. my guess would be that after the xel decided that the protoss failed, they purged their records and minds of them.

    Maybe the Protoss THOUGHT that it had learned it from Zeratul. How would they know anyway? They just attributed the Zerg invasion of Aiur to whatever they could explain. The Overmind absorbed all the knowledge of the Xel when they were destroyed, including the location of Aiur. It says so in one of the prequel books.

    No. The overmind said we learned to location of Auir when Zeratul touched (More liked sliced the cerabrate to bits) the cerabrate, right after it recovered from its "shock".
