On the volcanic, ash-ridden planet of Char, amidst the awesome 
magma flows and mudslides, the Zerg Overmind watched with pleasure as 
its greatest creation neared fruition.  Enclosed within a protective 
chrysalis, and surrounded on all sides by a fiercely protective swarm 
of defenders, the Creature rapidly neared the moment of its birth.

	Across the distance that separated them, the Overmind reached out 
with its thoughts, hoping to hasten the moment of the Creature's 
birth.  <Come to me, my child.  Awaken, so that you may rain 
destruction upon those who dare oppose the Zerg.>

	The Creature squirmed inside its chrysalis, as though it was 
somehow reacting to the thoughts of the Overmind.  <Hurry and awaken!  
The time draws near when you will lead the Zerg to victory against all 
the enemies who stand before them!>

	Again, the Creature stirred, but otherwise did not respond.  It 
was still transforming, its entire structure and soul being remade as 
the Overmind saw fit.

	The Overmind continued to prod the chrysalis with psionic power, 
trying to bring its transformation to a completion.  Finally, after a 
long time, the chrysalis began to vibrate as the creature inside 
struggled to emerge.  Psionic emanations flowed from within the 
weakening shell, and the Overmind was pleased by their extraordinary 
power.  They indicated that the transformation had been a success, and 
the Creature had indeed become one of the most powerful beings ever 
created by the Overmind.

	Cracks appeared in the chrysalis, and in a sudden burst of fluid 
it ruptured, allowing the contents inside to emerge.

	<Come, child,> the Overmind beckoned to the Creature.  <Emerge 
and take your first look upon a new world!  Feel the power I have 
gifted you with, and live to serve me!>

	The creature had once been a Terran, and on the outside it still 
looked remarkably similar to the person it had once been.  It was no 
longer a pitiful, ordinary Terran, though-- changed by the sheer will 
of the Overmind, it now stood like a God, overlooking the vast Zerg 
cities that stretched across the entire barren surface of their hot, 
scorched homeworld.

	Then it smiled-- truly a disturbing thing to see-- and looked 
across the landscape.  After a few moments it turned its gaze from the 
horizon, and looked down at the mat of Creep that stretched over every 
surface as far as the eye could see, providing a source of nutrients for 
the myriad array of biological formations that constituted the Zerg 
structures.

	The creature smiled again, and the Overmind felt a major 
disturbance begin to form in the psionic waves that constantly pulsed 
back and forth between it and the creature.  The Overmind increased the 
strength of the psionic waves, but without warning the link between it 
and the creature broke.  A backlash of psionic energy crashing against 
its inner mind, and the Overmind howled in pain.

	The overmind reached out to the creature again, desperately 
trying to reestablish the link to its creation.  New energy began to 
pulse from the Creature, as though it was preparing to attack.  <No, 
child, you mustn't!>  It was too late, though, and the creature pulled 
from nowhere its weapons of choice.  <What the fuck...>

	"My," said the Creature.  "If this is to be my new home, I'd 
better start cleaning right away."  Then, in a raspy voice, it began to 
hum as it dipped a mop into a bucket of soapy water, seemingly oblivious 
as it cleaned away Creep at an astonishing rate.

	The Overmind groaned in anguish as it struggled to re-exert its 
will on its ignorant creation.  Infested Kerrigan had been one of its 
greatest creations; Infested Kasumi was shaping up to be somewhat less 
of a success.
