James Raynor vividly remembers the day when he was pulled into the Nexus the moment he was about to be overrun by a swarm of zerglings. His life had been full of ups and downs, with a huge portion of it worthy of a saga. He had survived whatever the universe was throwing at him ever since before the Brood War in Koprulu, and that made him seem very lucky. Managing to form alliances with the Protoss, especially with high-reputation figures such as Tassadar, Zeratul, and Artanis made others like Tychus hold him in high regard and with a burning question that usually consists of how he managed to pull it off. With his now ex-girlfriend, Sarah Kerrigan, who became the Zerg Swarm's most ruthless leader, it only added to his reputation. With the respect of both the Zerg and the Protoss, he is a worthy candidate of being a legend.

In the Nexus, his days of living have become quite bizarre. Facing off against Diablo, who still holds a grudge over his humiliation in being bested by a human some time ago, is only one example of how many more unusual characters he has encountered. Usually, he still finds himself in the company of Uther, who was his mentor when it came to the Nexus and its universal laws. He had formed a friendship with the elderly paladin, and would sometimes accompany him to introduce newcomers to this world.

Sometimes, he is greeted by the same protoss who call him friend, and his personality has a knack of making good impressions on other heroes, especially ones aligned with the greater good. For today in Luxoria, he was passing the time at a leisurely pace, reminiscing about days long past. The protoss noticed him sitting near the edge of the floating city, and wondered what he was doing.
