colony leaders agree to rebel against Congress, severing their Ansible connection and deactivating the fence, allowing Ender, Ouanda, and Ela to go with Human to speak to the Pequenino wives, to help establish a case to present to Congress. The Pequenino wives help Ender corroborate the complex life cycle of the Pequeninos, affirming that the death ritual Pipo observed was to help create "fathertrees" who fertilize the Pequenino females to continue their race.

Speaker for the Dead, I don't want it to be filmed. I can't imagine it being filmed." Influence Card writes in his introduction to the 1991 edition that he has received letters from readers who have conducted "Speakings" at funerals. At these funerals a selected speaker would give an honest representation of the deceased life, providing an opportunity for family and friends to
