What’s the difference between colonization and joining a larger community? In this work of philosophical short story fiction, two aliens, Senior and Junior, visit Earth to offer humanity a gift. The aliens are from a highly advanced civilization, and they have come to help humanity evolve. The aliens offer humanity the gift of technology, but the gift is overshadowed by the context of the dangers of colonization. The aliens believe that humanity has the potential to someday join the community in the stars, and that the desire to find the larger community is inherent to sentient life.
