“’What is this water?’
‘It’s how we show pain or grief or suffering’
‘Ah! Ah! I have seen that water before! In the eyes of Libo and Pipo I saw that water!’
…’They didn’t know until this moment that Pipo and Libo were crying when they died’
…’Sickness and healing are in every heart. Death and deliverance are in every hand.’
‘Human, tell your people not to grieve for what they did in ignorance’‘It was a terrible thing, it was our greatest gift.’" (Pg, 239-240; Ch. 14)
The purpose of this quote is to explain the reasoning behind an action of murder the piggies committed in the first chapter of the book. As it says… they did it to honor the 2 xenadors, however to anyone human, they would have seen it as murder (and did). This sheds a lot of light on whether the piggies are raman or varelse, and this makes it out to be raman (since the action had purpose and was not more or less random or savage.).
