For what purpose did the Xel'Naga create races? I mean, if you look at most science fiction, most created races are used for either slave labor, or as cannon fodder in wars... Yes the Xel'Naga created races, but I don't think we're ever told what their motives were. We do know that for whatever the reason, the protoss rose up and drove them off their homeworld.

And even though the protoss campaign is a ways away, did you ever watch the VERY first preview cinamatic for SC2? it was zeratul hacking his way through tons of zerg, and being confronted by kerigan. And there are missions related to this in the terran campaign. So don't worry about him being relegated down to just an "old wise man". (Though he won't be the star, but he never was)

Except the goal of the Xel'Naga was not to create slaves. In fact it's said that they cherish all life, even whatever fucked up life they create. Their motive for creating races is because their own race was dying and they needed a successor, as pure as possible.

As for the Protoss game thing, they have explicitly stated that the campaign will be all terran and have just a few protoss missions for some sort of sense. Considering what Zeratul is supposedly doing, he seems to be relegated to exactly that duty until the next campaign or  two.
