Jake Ramsey --
an unassuming, yet talented archaeologist -- has been given the chance of a
lifetime.
Hired to investigate a
recently unearthed Xel'Naga temple, he knows this latest assignment will open
up whole new possibilities for his career. Yet, when Jake discovers the remains
of a long-dead protoss mystic, his hopes and dreams are irrevocably drowned in
a flood of alien memories. Bonded to the spirit of the dead protoss, Jake has
become the sole inheritor of the protoss's total history -- every event, every
thought -- every feeling.
