Extremely disappointing. Turned into a standard oblivious descendants of ancient spacefaring mankind story. I initially thought the author was going for a simulation angle when the "possessed" villagers started talking in binary and computer lingo in their trance and given how bizarre the planet and its creatures were. I just assumed the tainted undesirables were infected code that the system wanted to purge by branding and exiling them into the wilderness, but nah.
