When I was nine, I found a data file while scavenging through trash.
At thirteen, I figured out what it said.
It was a message of goodwill from a place called "Earth."
The people there were brave, kind, and hospitable. Earthlings wanted to make contact with aliens like us.
At twenty-three, I will lead my people in escaping to Earth.
The main story is told in third person. It is set in a diverse world because the aliens in the story are not limited to the two sexes found among humans on Earth.
