The unnamed narrator travels from the present day (1883) into the distant future, a utopian future. She observes a woman and her two late-teenage children, a girl and boy, as they travel through a museum that houses 'relics of what was once called the "Christian Era," subsequently designated by historians as the "The Age of Blood and Malevolence," the period from the 15th to the 21st centuries. The children are instructed on the gender inequalities of the past.
