Como os Buggers conseguiram replicar o mundo do jogo Battle School em Eros?

7

Acabei de ler o Ender's Game e estou prestes a começar Speaker of the Dead esta noite. Infelizmente, esperei até depois de assistir ao filme antes de ler o livro. Eu gostaria de ter ouvido meu pai quando ele me disse que eu deveria lê-lo sobre um período de tempo de crescimento.

De qualquer forma, perto do final do livro, descobrimos que em Eros, os Buggers tentaram recriar a cena com o Gigante e o parquinho do País das Fadas do jogo que ele jogou na Escola de Batalha.

Parece que o livro sugere que a rainha Bugger foi capaz de extrair essa informação do próprio Ender através da conexão Philotic durante a guerra final.

No entanto, o livro também parece sugerir que os Buggers invadiram a humanidade porque não conseguiam entender que éramos inteligentes por não conseguirmos nos conectar Filoticamente (sp?).

Pergunta

Como os Buggers conseguiram recriar o mundo do jogo na Escola de Batalha de Eros? Isso contradiz o fato de que os Buggers foram incapazes de compreender a inteligência da humanidade?

AMBAS dessas afirmações eram verdadeiras.

No início, os insetos não compreendiam que os humanos eram inteligentes.

Mais tarde, eles aprenderam que os humanos eram inteligentes e tentaram se comunicar com Ender. Eles podiam ler, mas não "falar" com ele.

Atenção! Spoilers!

In addition, as we learn in the sequels, the reason they could communicate to Ender in the first place was because they connected the Battle School Game AI to an auia (soul) which was in a way twined with Ender's.

Para o registro, os Buggers (AKA Formics) não recriaram o "Jogo do Gigante" em Eros (que na época da segunda invasão já estava sob controle da Terra), mas no planeta habitável mais próximo da Terra; Originalmente conhecido como "Ender World", mas recentemente renomeado como Planet Shakespeare

In addition to recreating the shape and feel of the game world (out of concrete) in an attempt to posthumously communicate with Ender, they also left a cocoon with a fertilised female queen for Ender to find and take to a new world after humanity's fear of the Buggers had abated.

A busca de Ender para demonizar a si mesmo (aos olhos de seus companheiros humanos) ocupa a maior parte do interregno de 2000 anos entre 'Ender's Game' e 'Speaker for the Dead'

The hill was hollow. A deep depression in the middle, partially filled with water, was ringed by concave slopes that cantilevered dangerously over the water. In one direction the hill gave way to two long ridges that made a V-shaped valley: in the other direction the rose to a piece of white rock, grinning like a skull with a tree growing out of its mouth. "It's like a giant died here," said Abra, "and the Earth grew up to cover his carcass,” Now Ender knew why it had looked familiar. The Giant's corpse. He had played here too many times as a child not to know this place. But it was not possible. The computer in the Battle School could not possibly have seen this place. He looked through his binoculars in a direction he knew well, fearing and hoping that he would see what belonged in that place. Swings and slides. Monkey bars. Now overgrown, but the shapes still unmistakable.
"Somebody had to have built this," Abra said, "Look, this skull place, it's not rock, look at it. This is concrete.”

Only me, he realized. They found me through the ansible, followed it and dwelt in my mind. In the agony of my tortured dreams they came to know me, even as I spent my days destroying them; they found my fear of them, and found also that I had no knowledge I was killing them. In the few weeks they had, they built this place for me, and the Giant's corpse and the playground and the ledge at the End of the World, so I would find this place by the evidence of my eyes. I am the only one they know, and so they can only talk to me, and through me.
