Kerrigan escaped, but Jim Raynor was captured. Valerian later let her go, but a Terran Dominion force under Nova stormed the facility to capture Kerrigan. Valerian and the Umojan scientists experimented on her control of the zerg swarm, which angered Kerrigan, and she sent zerglings against the robotic defenses of the lab. Kerrigan was taken by Jim Raynor and Valerian Mengsk to a Umojan Protectorate lab in order to escape the pursuit of Arcturus Mengsk, who wanted her dead.

Summaryįollowing the Dominion victory on Char, the Zerg Swarm was scattered, and Kerrigan was transformed into a human form but still has some infested elements (such as her zerg 'dreadlocks'), and whether she had her original personality back. She is torn in a sense, with her love for Raynor pulling her in one direction, and her hatred for Mengsk pulling her in another. Themes of identity and responsibility will be present, of how responsible Kerrigan is for her actions and whether there are some crimes that can't be forgiven. Kerrigan is treated as an anti-hero storywise, and will have to make peace with her relationship with the Swarm over the course of the story. It begins three weeks after the end of Wings of Liberty. Questions remain about why Kerrigan is no longer with Jim Raynor and whether her transformation has given her new purpose. Kerrigan is no longer considered the Queen of Blades. It focuses on Sarah Kerrigan and the development of a zerg empire. Heart of the Swarm is a sequel to Wings of Liberty.
