If Lilith is obedient to the wishes of the aliens, she will become the first leader on the new earth. What does it mean to be human? Lilith quickly becomes a portrayal of a strong woman.

In Jewish Folklore, Lilith is thought of as the first wife of Adam. However, change is never easy. This new earth, like the Garden of Eden, is a forest. Believe it or not, I have never watched Star Trek.
How is a leader treated differently if they are black? Science Fiction gives the reader the chance to think outside of the box about a new normal. She finds herself under the control of strange slimy creatures likened to slugs. A forest that needs to be tamed for the growth of food and also, for the growth of future families.
Like Adam/Eve, she is the first to experience a type of the Garden of Eden. Leadership on this future earth will give Lilith the ability to teach and train other captured earthlings. Still, Lilith does not give up. Or were we always just the wretched of the Earth?
