THE STORY SO FAR...
遥远的故事

PART 1:STARCRAFT
第一部分：星际争霸

FIRST CONTACT
初次见面

Terrans first journeyed to the far edge of the galaxy when a navigational malfunction sent their automated colony vessels hurtling off course. Bypassing their intended target, the ships crash-landed on three worlds scattered across the Koprulu sector.
当几艘自动化殖民飞船由于航行故障飞离了原定航线，terran第一次来到了银河系遥远的边缘区域。在错过了他们的原定目标后，这些飞船分别撞上了分散在Korprulu星域的三个世界上。(译注:terran意为人类,与现代英文中的human类似,都是terra/hum泥土+an,human本出自圣经,但在星际故事发生的25世纪前的23世纪,有过一次为统一全人类而进行的宗教废除,它废除了世界上一些最古老的宗教,故译者认为terran这个词从那时开始取代了human。) (再注:有关Terran我在文章中所说，Terra是土、地，所以愚以为更为合理的解释应该与地球Earth（亦是土地的意思）联系在一起，即为地球，就像人。但又有疑问了，为什么Korprulu星区的人也自称Terran呢？这并不矛盾，Korprulu的人类在知道自己的故乡在地球，为纪念难以返回的遥远家乡，他们不但沿用了Terran的名字，建立的政府也以Terran命名。)

Over several decades the terrans established colonies, spread to other planets, and came into conflict with one another. In the decade after the end of the Guild Wars, the Terran Confederacy stood unchallenged in its supremacy over colonial space.
几十年中，terran建立了殖民地，扩张到别的行星上，并在彼此之间发生了冲突，在“行会战争”结束后的十年中，terran联邦在这片殖民空间里建立了不可一世的霸权。

The terran colonies first became aware they were not alone in the universe when a gleaming fleet of protoss warships suddenly emerged over the Confederate world of Chau Sara. The advanced alien ships incinerated the planet's surface without warning.
当一艘闪亮的protoss战舰突然出现在联邦世界的Chau Sara行星上空时，terran殖民者第一次认识到自己在这浩瀚宇宙中并不孤独。那先进的外来飞船却毫无预兆的烧毁了这个星球的表面。 (译注:protoss为一个高度发达的种族。通常被中国玩家称作神族。)

Reeling from the unprovoked attack, the Confederacy sent a fleet led by Colonel Edmund Duke, to protect the nearby colony of Mar Sara. Surprisingly the protoss retreated, and Colonel Duke proudly declared the retreat a Confederate victory.
遭受了如此不宣而战的袭击后，联邦政府派出了一个由Edmund Duke上校率领的舰队前去保护附近的殖民地Mar Sara行星。在惊奇地发现了protoss撤退后，Duke上校骄傲地宣称这是联邦军的一次胜利。

MAR SARA
MAR SARA行星

Back on Mar Sara, Marshal Jim Raynor responded to a distress call out in the wastelands. He found a terran outpost that had been infested by unknown alien organisms. Realizing there could be no survivors, he and his men destroyed it.
回头看Mar Sara上，Jim Raynor警长应一个紧急通知前往一片荒地，他发现一个terran前哨遭到了不明生物的感染。在意识到不可能有任何幸存者时，他带部下将其摧毁。

The Confederacy reacted by imprisoning Raynor and his men. Further alien attacks broke out on the planet. It took the arrival of an anti-Confederacy rebel group called the Sons of Korhal to begin any sort of organized resistance to the aliens, which had become known as the zerg.
联邦的反应是将Raynor及其部下拘捕。更多的外来生物攻下了整个星球。这引来了一个反联邦的叛军组织--Korhal之子，他们开始组织一切力量抵抗这种已被称作zerg的外来物种。(译注:zerg即中国玩家称作虫族的种族。)

The bestial zerg spread too swiftly to be stopped. Freed by the rebels, Raynor uncovered proof that the Confederacy had anticipated the zerg's arrival. He and the rebel leader, Arcturus Mengsk, evacuated everyone they could from Mar Sara before the protoss fleet reappeared and incinerated the planet.
如狼似虎的zerg以难以抵挡的势头迅速地扩张着。被叛军解救了的Raynor揭露了联邦预先了解zerg到来的证据。他和叛军领袖Arcturus Mengsk尽可能的在protoss舰队再次出现并焚毁Mar Sara之撤离了所有人。

ANTIGA PRIME
ANTIGA PRIME行星

Thoroughly disillusioned, Raynor joined the Sons of Korhal. On the planet of Antiga Prime he worked with Mengsk's second-in-command, Sarah Kerrigan--formerly a ghost, one of the Confederacy's elite psionic assassins--whom Mengsk had liberated from the government's neural conditioning. Raynor and Kerrigan developed into a formidable team.
彻底醒悟后，Raynor加入了Korhal之子。在Antiga Prime行星上，他和Mengsk的大副Sarah Kerrigan一同行动。她过去是一名Ghost(鬼兵)，联邦中具有心灵感应精英刺客之一。后来被Mengsk从政府的神经控制中解救出来。Raynor和Kerrigan组成了一支令人生畏的团队。

Mengsk quickly stirred up a full-scale revolt against Confederate forces on Antiga Prime. Now a general, Duke tried to intervene, but his ship fell victim to a zerg attack. In a stunning coup Mengsk persuaded the general to join the Sons of Korhal in exchange for saving Duke's command and his life from the rampaging aliens.
Mengsk很快组建了一支全面的反叛部队，以此对抗Antiga Prime上的联邦军队。已升为将军的Duke正要前来干涉，他的舰船却成了一次zerg袭击的受害者。用了一个绝好的妙计，Mengsk说服Duke加入Korhal之子，以此拯救他的军队和他自己的生命免于外来生物的狂暴进攻。

Hastily the Confederacy sent reinforcement troops to the planet. However, Kerrigan and Mengsk discovered a terrible secret: Confederate scientists had constructed a "psi emitter", a device that acted as a beacon for the zerg. Tests of this new doomsday weapon had drawn the zerg to Mar Sara and other colonies.
仓促中，联邦向这个星球派出了援军。然而，Kerrigan和Mengsk却发现了一个可怕的秘密：联邦的科学家们已经建造了一个"psi emitter(心灵感应发射器)"，一种被当作zerg烽火的设备。对这种末日级武器的测试已经将zerg引向了Mar Sara和其它殖民星球。

Mengsk ordered a psi emitter to be planted in the Confederate base on Antiga Prime, and the zerg swarmed in to destroy the Confederate forces. Soon afterwards the protoss incinerated the planet from orbit, just as they had Chau Sara and Mar Sara.
Mengsk下令在联邦基地内部放置一个心灵感应发射器。于是，zerg蜂拥而至，消灭了联邦的军队。不久之后，protoss像在Chau Sara和Mar Sara上所做的一样，从绕星轨道上放火烧尽了这个星球。

TARSONIS
TARSONIS行星
Next Mengsk struck at the ultimate prize, the world of Tarsonis, capital of the Confederacy. He overrode his lieutenants' misgivings and had General Duke place psi emitters on the unblemished and densely populated world. As the zerg descended on Tarsonis, Raynor began to question Mengsk's sanity: no measure seemed too extreme for Mengsk if it achieved his goals. Even so, Raynor did not fully understand the depths of Mengsk's malice.
接下来，Mengsk攻向了他的最终目标：Tarsonis上的世界，联邦政府的首都星球。他不顾副官的疑虑而让Duke将军在这美丽无瑕的且人口稠密的世界上放置了心灵发射器。当zerg突袭Tarsonis时，Raynor开始质问Mengsk的"明智之举"：只要能够达成他的目标，Mengsk不择手段。即便如此，Raynor还是没有了解Mengsk阴谋的深远。

This time the leader of the protoss fleet, Executor Tassadar, deployed ground forces in an effort to save the planet. There was every chance the protoss could succeed, and so Mengsk ordered Kerrigan to vanquish the protoss on Tarsonis. Despite her concerns Kerrigan obeyed and ensured that the planet would fall to the zerg.
就在这个时候，protoss舰队的将领Tassadar执行官在地面上部署了部队，试图拯救这个星球。眼看protoss的胜利势在必得，Mengsk命令Kerrigan前去击败Tarsonis上的protoss。抛开了自己的顾虑，Kerrigan服从命令并确保了zerg对这颗行星的攻占。

"Jimmy, drop the knight-in-shining-armor routine. It suits you sometimes. Just not... not now. I don't need to be rescued. I know what I'm doing. The Protoss are coming to destroy the entire planet, not just the Zerg. I know that because... well I just know it. I am a Ghost, remember? Once we've dealt with the Protoss, we can do something about the Zerg. Arcturus will come around. I know he will."

Kerrigan
"Jimmy，别玩英雄救美那一套了，那有时的确很适合你。只是......只是现在不行。我不需要别人救。我知道我在干什么。Protoss不止要灭掉zerg，而且会毁掉这整个星球。我知道这些是因为......我就是知道啦。我是一个鬼兵，记得吗？一旦我们跟protoss做个了结，我们就可以对付zerg了。Arcturus会回心转意的，我相信他会的。"

Kerrigan

Surrounded by zerg, she called for evac from the doomed planet. However, in a shocking betrayal, Mengsk abandoned Kerrigan and her troops to their fate. Furious, Raynor departed Mengsk's flagship, the Hyperion, and returned to Tarsonis, but he arrived too late to prevent Kerrigan's capture by the zerg.
在被zerg包围后，她请求搭载以撤离这个即将毁灭的星球。然而，Mengsk令人震惊的出卖了她。让她和她的部队听天由命。盛怒之下，Raynor离开了Mengsk的旗舰Hyperion号，回到了Tarsonis的表面。但是他的返回太迟了，已经无法阻止Kerrigan被zerg俘虏的惨剧发生。

THE RISE OF TERRAN DOMINITON
TERRAN帝国的崛起

Despite this minor setback Arcturus Mengsk's victory was all but complete. With Tarsonis destroyed the Confederacy collapsed. Most Confederate survivors quickly joined the Sons of Korhal, which became the primary military force opposing the alien invaders. The former rebels saved many terran lives. They only hesitated when a planet did not welcome their intervention. After all, as Mengsk remarked sadly, a planet's local government had ultimate authority on that planet. Besides, the Sons of Korhal had limited resources, and it was a time of war.
尽管作出了小规模的撤退，Arcturus Mengsk仍然大获全胜。随着Tarsonis的毁灭，联邦政府彻底倒台。很快，大多数联邦幸存者加入了Korhal之子，并成了抵抗外来入侵者的首要军事力量。如今，昔日的叛军拯救了许多人的生命。只是在一颗不欢迎他们干涉的行星前犹豫了。毕竟，Mengsk说过，一个星球的本地政府对此星球有最高权力。而且，在这个战争年代，Korhal之子已经用尽了资源。

As planet after planet appealed to the Sons of Korhal for aid, Mengsk announced that a new government, the Terran Dominion, was necessary to keep watch over these worlds. He declared himself emperor of the Dominion, and he promised victory over the aliens.
一个接着一个，各个行星纷纷响应并支持Korhal之子。此时，Mengsk宣布，必须由Terran帝国，这一新政府来一统天下了。他自冕为皇，并承诺要带领盟友们走向胜利。


"I will not be stopped. Not by you, or the Confederates, or the Protoss or anyone! I will rule this sector or see it burnt to ashes around me."
Arcturus Mengsk
“你阻止不了我，不但你不行，联邦和Protoss也不行！谁也阻止不了我！要么由我统治这个星域，要么我们玉石俱焚。”
Arcturus Mengsk

Meanwhile, Raynor realized too late that he had begun to fall in love with Sarah Kerrigan. Unable to save her now, he resolved to seek justice in her name.
而那个时候，Raynor却刚刚意识到，自己已经爱上了Sarah Karrigan，但那已经太晚了。虽然无法拯救她，Raynor还是下定决心要以她的名义寻找公正。

OVERMIND
主脑

Terrans mistakenly believed that the zerg were an instinct-driven hive society, but in fact a supreme sentience, the Overmind, controlled the zerg via intermediaries called cerebrates. Moreover, the Overmind had acquired a promising creature on Tarsonis, a creature that would serve the Swarm in new ways.
Terran们错误地认为Zerg的社会形态是一种受本能驱使的虫群式社会。但事实上，一个最高统帅--主脑--通过一些叫做脑虫的媒介操纵着整个zerg。此外，主脑还在Tarsonis星上得到了一个颇有前途的生物...一个能给虫群注入新鲜血液的生物。

This creature was wrapped in a protective chrysalis and transported to the remote ash world of Char, where it awaited its rebirth into the Swarm. The creature's powerful psionic emanations drew terran and protoss forces to Char, but the zerg fought off the interlopers and protected the chrysalis until it opened. A new being emerged: someone who would alter the future of the entire Koprulu sector forever.
这个生物被保护在一个蛹内，然后被运到了遥远的尘埃世界Char行星，在那儿，它等待着重获新生。虽然这个生物强大的心灵感应把terran和protoss的部队引到了Char，但zerg打败了这些入侵者并保护了蛹。终于，它破蛹而出，一个新物种诞生了...而且它会改变整个Koprulu星区的未来。

Sarah Kerrigan emerged from the chrysalis a loyal servant of the Overmind. Her evolution had unlocked the fantastic potential of her psionic powers and incredible strength. Stripped of human ethics and morality, she was ruthlessly dedicated to the Swarm's survival.
这个生物就是Sarah Kerrigan，她破蛹而出并成了主脑的忠实助手。她的进化发掘了她惊人的心灵力量和无比强悍的体力。她丢掉了人类的一切伦理道德，绝情的投身于虫群的生存中。

THE QUEEN OF BLADES
During her time in the chrysalis, Kerrigan had been confused and distressed. She had reached out telepathically to her former comrades, Arcturus Mengsk and Jim Raynor. Raynor had come to Char to save her. Mengsk had sent General Duke, perhaps hoping to regain Kerrigan as an ally, perhaps simply wanting to capture and study whatever remained of her. Whatever their hopes, both men arrived too late. Her confusion was gone, and she easily drove the terrans away.
在蛹里的时候，Kerrigan也困惑和痛苦过。她感应到昔日的战友Arcturus Mengsk和Jim Raynor。Raynor已经赶来救她。Mengsk也派来Duke将军，也许想重新与她结盟，也许只是来把她的尸骨抓回去做研究。不管他们的目的如何，两人都到得太晚了。她的困惑已经消散，简简单单的就把terran们赶走了。

Yet the Overmind also suffered a terrible blow. Protoss led by Executor Tassadar kept the Queen of Blades and a number of other zerg busy while a dark templar named Zeratul assassinated one of the Overmind's cerebrates. The zerg formerly controlled by the slain lieutenant ran amok, turning on the rest of the Swarm, which were forced to destroy them.
然而，主脑也挨了狠狠的一拳。当Tassadar执政官领导Protoss牵制着刀锋女王和别的一部分zerg时，一位名叫Zeratul的黑暗圣堂武士刺杀了一个脑虫。由这个脑虫控制的zerg开始失控发狂，并开始攻击余下的虫群。别无选择，虫群只能杀光它们。

“Well spoken, Concubine of the Zerg. But though we strike at you from the shadows, do not think that we lack the courage to stand in the light.”
Zeratul
“说的好，Zerg的小妾。但是，虽然我们是在阴影中打击你，不要以为我们缺少光明正大的勇气。”
Zeratul

Yet all was not lost for the zerg. When Zeratul had killed the cerebrate, he had made a fleeting telepathic contact with the Overmind. In that moment, the Overmind had discovered the secret location of the protoss homeworld, Aiur.
但zerg并没有输光家当。当Zeratul杀死脑虫时，他与主脑建立了短暂的心灵连接。就那一会儿，主脑发现了protoss家园的秘密位置--Aiur。

Long had the Overmind sought the protoss homeworld. With the location of Aiur and the terrans to serve as the zerg's newest servants, the Overmind was confident that the Swarm could finally defeat and assimilate the protoss. Using protoss DNA, the Overmind would produce the perfect killing machines: a new strain of zerg that would conquer the rest of creation.
主脑探寻protoss的家园已有时日。如今有了Aiur的位置，加上zerg新任的将领，主脑信心十足，想将protoss彻底击溃并同化于虫群。使用protoss的DNA，主脑将创造出一种完美的杀戮机器：一支能征服宇宙的全新的zerg血统。
