The story follows Basset, a scientist who finds himself immersed in the wild and dangerous landscapes of Guadalcanal, where he encounters a mysterious and powerful entity referred to as the "red god."

The text captures his inner turmoil, physical suffering, and the vivid memories of violent events, such as the death of his companion, Sagawa.
