""I spoke with Arcturus. He... he explained himself. And his explanation was full of examples and buzzwords and omelets and breaking eggs and freedom and duty and everything else. And he had me believing, Mike. I really wanted to believe that he had information that we didn't, like there were zerg queens in the heart of Tarsonis itself, calling the shots through puppet leaders, sacrificing the populace, and eating babies in the street.

"But as I listened, I watched the map of Taronis behind him.

"As I watched, the screen turned red. All of it, red from the zerg arriving.

"There were no zerg on Tarsonis until he set off all the psi emitters. None at all. It wasn't like the Sara planets, or even Antiga Prime, where there were some already there and we had already lost the world. There was nothing there to threaten us but other humans.

"And now the zerg are coming from everywhere. They're on the planet. Arcturus didn't recall any of the units currently in combat. He didn't even bother to get the teams that placed the psi emitters off-planet. He left them there. 'Sacrifices must be made', he said, and he said it in that calm, pleased voice as if he were ordering coffee." [...]

"Mike, there was no rationale for him to do this. I thought it was a bluff, or that Tarsonis was already infected, or that there was a master plan. It was just that Arcturus has a hammer, and when you have a hammer, every problem seems to be a nail.

"And Mike, when I got mad at him, I looked. I mean, I really looked into him."

"That bastard.""
