![]() Banks is one of a group of linguists tasked with learning the heptapod language. ![]() Banks wants to tell her daughter about the night she is conceived as well as all of the events that have led to that night-namely, that a race of aliens (called "heptapods") visit earth, and Dr. She is able to "remember" the future because she is fluent in Heptapod B, which requires a simultaneous consciousness (seeing events as all-at-once) rather than a sequential consciousness (seeing events as one-at-a-time or cause-and-effect). Banks knows that her daughter will exist and what will happen in her daughter's life-including her daughter's death at the age of 25.
