The narrative centers on a rural physician burdened by personal anxieties and a growing disillusionment with his work. He finds himself drawn into increasingly bizarre circumstances when summoned to a young patient's bedside under unusual conditions. The doctor’s attempts to diagnose a seemingly straightforward ailment quickly spiral into the uncanny, as he experiences impossible journeys and encounters inexplicable phenomena. He is caught in a cyclical reality, repeatedly attempting to fulfill his duty while facing mounting frustration and public scorn from a community that holds him to an unattainable standard. The story explores themes of responsibility, the burden of expectations, and the psychological toll of confronting the inexplicable within a quiet, isolated setting. It presents a melancholic exploration of service, failure, and the blurring lines between the ordinary and the profoundly strange.
