A reading from the book of zerg

[Crawford]

A zergling once said to the Overmind: "I want to believe in you, but how can I keep my faith, when the life of a zergling is so very brief and full of suffering?"

And the Overmind said unto the zergling: "Look back at the path thou hast trod all of thine life. You will see there are two sets of footprints, for where you have walked through torment and trial, I have walked beside you."

And the zergling looked back and saw that, for much of the way, there were, indeed, two sets of footprints, but sometimes, where he had endured the harshest difficulties, he saw only one set.

"But Overmind," the zergling said. "What about the places where my journey was the most painful? When I look at those spots, I see only one set of footprints. You abandoned me."

"I did not abandon you, my child," said the Overmind. "Those places where you see only one set of footprints are the places where I sent in Mutalisk air support."

For the Xel'Naga so loved the Zerg that they gave them their only begotten son. And the Zerg ate him, and were full. He tasted like chicken.

This is some kinda bible thing, innit?

[MushroomBomb]

That was brilliant.

It's a parody on a part from the Bible, yes. If you basically just switch out 'zergling' with 'I' and 'Overmind' with 'God' you get the idea. In the Bible, it ends with God carrying the storyteller.

God sends you Mutalisk air support too? I better convert.

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

just btw it is not in the bible i dont think is a poem

also wouldnt the places where there are no footprints be when he is a speedling with his little wings?

I have been playing the Starcraft 2 campaign, and it turns out the Overmind was not bad. Just misunderstood.
