The last section of the book is almost exclusively from the point of view of the aliens. Do you feel like you're in the head of a sympathetic character who's like motivations you understand or is it completely... for lack of a better word is it a completely alien sensation? It is somewhat sympathetic especially because you first are introduced to them through that pacifist character who received the message. And he gets in trouble by being like I don't know man our civilization is messed up. Maybe we shouldn't go ruin this other civilization.
