A daughter and mother had dinner after her last class.

"Mother, Teacher was saying that people fought and hurt one another over power and greed, that millions would follow a few to gain benefits."

"Oh? I remember my grandmother telling me stories about that. The riots, the wars, and the arrests."

"Did Teacher mention the aliens?"

"Yes, we just covered them. They offered bribes with their 'mini-replicators' for disarming, starting with armed guards, police, and the military. Eventually, everyone."

"Hmm, I recall there's a name for that era."

'Sycophants End.'

"Yes, that's what Grandmother called it. Post-scarcity to peace."
