The first phase of the Second Great War took place this year.[1]

February and June[]

Misc. Events[]

The following section contains timeline information which isn't necessarily in chronological order.

Note that the following events all take place prior to late September/early October of this year.

  • The Dominion Armed Forces undertake a trio of emergency drills to assess response times and defensive capabilities.
  • A Dominion press conference hints as to the existence of the Odin.

September/October[]

This marks the beginning of the Second Great War. Through Stetmann's research log, these events have to take place prior to October 7th, and as the conflict begins just after the fourth anniversary of the end of the Brood War, must begin in the September/October period.

  • In response to the raid on the artifact, the Dominion declares martial law on Mar Sara, claiming that the retrieval of the artifact was a raid led by insurgents to claim bio-weapons. Kate Lockwell reports on the incident.[16]
  • The zerg invade Mar Sara, landing at the artifact's dig site. The Raiders hold out long enough for extraction by the Hyperion.[17]

December[]

The following events occur in December[24][note 1]

  • Valerian's Dominion fleet and Raynor's Raiders invade Char. After long and bloody combat, the xel'naga artifact is successfully activated, restoring Kerrigan to her human form.[25]
    • Arcturus Mengsk and the rest of the Dominion Armada arrive, intending to terminate Kerrigan. Valerian and Raynor flee with her, sparking a small scale civil war. Due to her illness, they meet up with Dr. Emil Narud, head of the Moebius Foundation to try to treat her. However, Narud betrays them and makes common cause with Emperor Mengsk. He escapes with the artifact, while Raynor and Valerian escape, taking Kerrigan to a secret Umojan Protectorate laboratory.[26]
    • Narud travels to Atrias, a Tal'darim world in the Sigma quadrant, and revives Amon.[27]
    • Egon Stetmann is assigned to research the moon of Bel'Shir.[28] He is ordered to establish a scientific outpost with the promise that more staff will follow. However, they fail to show up, leading to 18 months of radio silence.[29]
    • For over two weeks, Valerian subjects Kerrigan to a number of tests, seeing how she reacts to stimuli.[30][note 2]
The next article in this series is 2505.

Notes[]

  1. A number of sources listed the events of Heart of the Swarm as occuring in 2506. However, the timeline in StarCraft II: War Stories establishes that, among other things, Kerrigan reached the Umojan lab in 2504, but had to flee in 2505. As only three weeks pass between the end of Wings of Liberty and the beginning to Heart of the Swarm, the events below must occur in December of this year.
  2. This testing period potentially begins and/or extends into 2505.
