cultural-ethics

In this chapter, Enoch meets the elderly Hazer, a representative of the Vegan race, who expresses concern about a potential indiscretion involving Earth. The Hazer and Enoch discuss differences in culture and perception, particularly through the presence of Lucy, a mute Earth woman who seems to transcend fear and cultural barriers. The chapter culminates with Enoch uncovering that a grave has been disturbed, prompting him to resolve to find the responsible party.
