Then Quim tells Miro of the rumors the pequeninos are spreading

That he must go into the forest alone. Quim dies

Climax

The climax happens in chapter 12 Grego’s War. This happens a little while after Quim dies. The friends of Quim want to kill the piggies because they killed Quim after the oath they solemnly swore. They tried to burn the fence and succeeded. They yelled out, “burn them for Quim and Christ sake”. Grego tried to tell them that most of the piggies and mother tree where innocent and did not need to die. But sadly his petty attempt failed and some of the forest was burned down.

Conflicts

Character vs. self: in Xenocide Miro has to face himself in the way that he hates being crippled he will have to except it and go with the flow.

Character vs. nature: the desolada desise is a very deadly desise that al the humans on Lustina and all the hundred worlds if the pigges get a ship and spread the desise. Also every being on Lustina is enslaved to the desolada desise.

Theme and resolution

The theme is no mater how much free will you have you will in some way be enslaved. This is shown in the book when planter says “ “Everything comes from the desolada ,” said planter. “the third life, the mothertree, the fathertree, maybe even or minds…” (pg.416).

The resolution is jane becomes in a way human.
