Zeratul and his allies survived Aldaris' attack, and plotted their attack on the zerg. Aldaris was not forthcoming, but Zeratul and Tassadar were able to depart. Zeratul demanded that Aldaris's guards stand down and Tassadar be released.
Aldaris then reappeared, leading a last-ditch attack to recapture Tassadar, but he was in turn ambushed by Zeratul and his Dark Templar. Fenix and Raynor defeated the Conclave forces and destroyed the cell, freeing Tassadar.

Fenix's forces, with the help of Raynor, attacked the stasis cell in which Tassadar was incarcerated and was awaiting trial and execution. Zeratul and his Dark Templar vanished, leaving the new Executor and Fenix to continue their rebellion with little support. Together, Tassadar, Zeratul, and Fenix assaulted Kor-shakal, but Tassadar was distraught by the infighting and surrendered himself to Aldaris. Tassadar decided he would fight the Conclave, as they threatened the very warriors that could defeat the zerg. Tassadar was shocked that they would "cling to their failing traditions" even as the zerg threatened them with annihilation. The Conclave had branded Tassadar a traitor and sought to arrest him and execute Zeratul. Together they fled to Aiur, where they gained the support of Praetor Fenix. Tassadar convinced him to return with him to Aiur. Once inside, he allied with stranded terran troops, fought his way past the zerg inside, and found Zeratul and his Dark Templar. Tassadar, reinforced by protoss troops sent from Aiur (in order to arrest him), launched an attack on the zerg guarding the infested installation. Zeratul accepts Tassadar's request to return to Aiur ( src) Meanwhile, the victorious zerg traveled to Aiur, where they won many victories against the protoss defenders. Tassadar escaped due to the arrival of protoss reinforcements while Zeratul and a small number of other Dark Templar were captured and herded into a terran installation. Yours is not the hand, but your very existence provides necessary instruction." You shall show the way, the path that must be taken, the realigning of old truths no longer valid. Zeratul told her of a prophecy: "Your coming has been foretold. Kerrigan and Zeratul exchanged words and insults during the battle. Kerrigan led a devastating attack against the protoss on Char. He would meet the preserver Zamara and revealed to her a pair of secrets that Dark Templar could store memories and that he sometimes used a pink-skied world as a sanctuary. During the teachings, Tassadar underwent a Shadow Walk.

Īs their friendship grew, Zeratul also began teaching Tassadar how to use the Dark Templar's Void-based psionic energies, a task that was considered blasphemous by Judicator Aldaris. Not all the Overmind's secrets were learned at the time, as its mental defenses were still active. This created a connection between Zeratul and the Overmind, which enabled Zeratul to discern the Overmind's motives and the Overmind to discern the secret location of Aiur. Īfter the rebirth of Sarah Kerrigan as the Queen of Blades, Tassadar distracted her long enough for Zeratul to slay Zasz, cerebrate and leader of the Garm Brood. The two leaders (and Jim Raynor) came to an understanding, joining forces and hiding from the zerg.
Eventually Zeratul overcame Tassadar's prejudice, beginning to heal the rifts between the Khalai and the Dark Templar. However, Zeratul refused to take offense, even attempting to teach Tassadar the art of combat (while avoiding being struck). Tassadar reacted badly upon his meeting with this leader of a forbidden caste and attacked Zeratul. On Char, Zeratul met the former protoss executor Tassadar, a member of the Templar Caste, and the terran Jim Raynor. Zeratul when confronting Tassadar ( src)ĭuring the Great War, Zeratul reacted to Sarah Kerrigan's psionic call from Char by taking his small force there, seeking to end the zerg's expansion.
