History Awesome / StarcraftIILegacyOfTheVoid

* In the penultimate mission of the main campaign, the part when [[spoiler:all the freaking Protoss fleet, ''including Cybros, a.k.a. the Purifier Space Station'' (which has purge all Zerg life on Endion in ''one shot'') [[OrbitalBombardment fire their weapons]] on Amon's physical body to destroy it, sublimated by his [[BigNo pain scream]]]]. To be fair, he deserves this pain.

-->'''Amon''': You actions have not elluded my gaze, Artanis. Your plans are not hidden from me... and you are too late. Behold the form of your god. The culmination of a cycle set into motion when the stars were born. As I was your beginning, so shall I be your end. Know the truth, Artanis: your people, your beliefs, your Khala... everything, a lie. There is nothing left of you.
-->'''Artanis''': You are wrong. We are finally free to become something more, and you will not stop us. Brace yourself for the full might of the Firstborn!

** Don't stop there. In the epilogue, [[spoiler: Valerian sent his men ''into the freaking Void'' to help Raynor]]. At long last, the main terran faction finally established themselves as being able to do good. ''Big'' good.

[[spoiler:'''Narud''']]: [[spoiler:Stukov]]! Have you come to gloat? \\
[[spoiler:'''Stukov''']]: No. I came to [[IronicEcho say good night, you son of a bitch]]!

** For that matter, the final mission itself. [[spoiler:It directly mirrors "In Utter Darkness" with the zerg under Amon's control assaulting the Protoss from all directions as they defend themselves, their heroes leading them as a unified front. But while they were just holding out as long as they could before dying with "In Utter Darkness," here they're defending the Keystone as it charges to expel Amon from the Khala, which will be a crippling blow for him and free the rest of the Protoss from his control.]]

* The ending of the main campaign: [[spoiler: With Amon banished from the Khala, Artanis' places Zeratul's blade on an altar, thanking him for all he had done as the scene depicts the Protoss at last reclaiming and rebuilding Aiur.]]
** The last scene of the epilogue and of the SCII trilogy: [[spoiler: Raynor is sitting [[BookEnd alone at the bar in Mar Sera]], quietly mourning Kerrigan who had seemingly sacrificed herself to destroy Amon once and for all. Just then, the door opens and Raynor sees what appears to be a fully human Kerrigan asking him to come with her. It took 17 years, [[EarnYourHappyEnding but the universe finally gave Jim and Sarah a break.]]]]
--> [[spoiler: '''Kerrigan''']]: [[spoiler: You ready to get out of here, cowboy?"]]
--> [[spoiler: '''Raynor''']]: [[spoiler: *smiles* [[CallBack Hell, it's about time.]]]]

* Prior to the final battle, Artanis gives a speech to the assembled Protoss that mirrors his speech in the Overmind's vision from "In Utter Darkness," and at times he directly quotes it. However, it's even ''more'' awesome here: [[spoiler:in the vision, Artanis was giving the speech to the Protoss as they fought to the death against impossible odds; here, he gives it as they prepare to purify Amon from the Khala and free the rest of their race from his control.]]

* A retroactive one for the Terrans during their own campaign; Karax, an engineer from a race of [[SufficientlyAdvancedAlien super advanced aliens]], is shocked that the Terrans were able to rig the Xel'Naga artifact to act as a weapon. He claims that the artifact was never designed to be used in such a way, but that didn't stop us from doing so.

* When Artanis comes to Karax's rescue on Auir, he doesn't mess around. He finishes the encounter by tearing a zergling to shreds with a GoryDiscretionShot. [[spoiler: You can tell that he's channeling all the grief and fury he feels over Zeratul's death.]]

** And then the cavalry arrives.

--> Archon: '''[[PreAsskickingOneLiner Power... OVERWHELMING!]]'''

* In that same cinematic, [[spoiler: the lone surviving]] Zealot standing tall before [[spoiler: literally thousands of Zerg]], with an expression that's practically ''daring'' them to do their worst. ''Fear is for the enemy'' indeed.

* It's the first time these iconic words have been uttered during a cinematic... and it. is. ''glorious.''
