A Calcutta banker writes to a press-service president about a strange manuscript left by a man named Murdock, which his friends cannot decide is truth or a hidden hobby of fiction. Murdock’s narrative follows, leading into a cavern lit by octagonal crystals, tall shadowy figures and a throne, and an encounter with beings from another world.
