The following manuscript holds all that is known of the event known as Aiur's Fall, that happened at least a hundred and twenty-seven years ago and nearly made extinct the Protoss species, as narrated by Zerathur Naszberuk (Protoss, male), Ya'vanna Erian Naszberuk (Protoss, female) and Adeena (Zerg Queen of the Far North, female). It is in no way finished, as there may be more to be discovered about the happenings that took place during the event.
(A.K. - After Khas)
20:00 7/12/1483 A.K. - Zerg scouting parties arrived in the island of Aiur prior to their attack on the Protoss homeland. They were led by the Zerg Queen Adeena and were tasked to infiltrate the cities and disable any sort of detection mechanisms that'd warn about the incoming swarms.
21:38 7/12/1483 A.K. - A Zerg strike force attacked the city of Antioch without prior warning, quickly taking down important military targets, such as the regional Templar Archives and the Automata Factories.
23:14 7/12/1483 A.K. - Meltdown of the Khalai Reactors, and the following explosion that destroyed half of the city of Antioch (Where they were built) and killed most of its inhabitants (But not the invading forces, that momentarily retreated minutes before said explosion).
00:57 8/12/1483 A.K. - The Zergs overwhelmed most of the Protoss survivors in Antioch, and used the ruins of the city as the base of operations to launch a massive attack against all other major cities.
03:21 8/12/1483 A.K. - The defenders of Kûl were slaughtered by the invaders, and the city was infested by Creep.
03:43 8/12/1483 A.K. - Tulav and She'llak were overrun by the invading forces. All the military and citizens in the cities were slaughtered, and their bodies, infested.
06:00 8/12/1483 A.K. - A wave of infested Protoss attacked and overwhelmed the outer defenses of Nova Aiur. A large number citizens had managed to flee from the city through underground tunnels, having been already alerted of the attack on the neighboring cities, but at least half of them would be hunted down and killed in the following weeks and months.
06:43 8/12/1483 A.K. - The last defenders of Nova Aiur fell to the waves of Zergs and Infested. From then on, the years were no longer being counted as After Khas, but instead, as After Aiur('s fall).
14:00 05/01/0001 A.A. - The survivors of the attack on Aiur manage to cross the sea either by boat or by the underground tunnels. Most of them united under the guidance of the protoss known as Salazar 'Overmind' Naszberuk from the Diplomatic Caste, who sought out to retake their homeland from the invaders. The others fled to other nearby countries.
22:00 14/01/0001 A.A. - The last couple of protoss survivors, derived from the city of Antioch and guided by the protoss known as Zerathur Naszberuk, arrived by boat on the main continent's shores. Not knowing if others survived, they started making their way North, where they hoped to be safe. Nearly most of them were hunted down by the zergs in the following years.
