A good parody of our current world. I have read other stories like this through the years and the premise was the same. Humans are predatory creatures with little regard for life, including their own species.
And the Kiiren will kill their own grubs. I think I wrote this because I got tired of the 'humans are special' trope in scifi more than anything.
Also, when the Kiiren are returning with the kids, the sentry Kiiren mentions a drone spotting them. That's supposed to be when they're spotted with the children, in an otherwise evacuated area..

absolutely fascinating. Humans will kill each other, even other's children, while the kiriin save children.
It almost makes you wonder why they didn't collect the children earlier, doesn't it?

I discounted the drone, which was my mistake.
I took it for an artillery spotting drone. Afterall, mortars were falling around the neighborhood.
I mean you didn't draw a bad conclusion. That is a pretty realistic idea.
