Mysterious decision-making

3 stars

I liked the setting and the characters were great and written pretty good, plus some interesting ethical questions raised. But parts of the plot and some decisions/conclusions did not seem comprehensible at all, making the whole story feeling a bit off which was bothering me the whole read.
