A man out foraging in the wooded hills of West Virginia accidentally disturbs a nest of yellowjackets, which causes him to fall down a steep incline. As he lies dying, he is approached by a mysterious stranger who offers him insights into life, death, and the nature of the universe. Before the stranger departs, leaving the man to his fate, he imparts the knowledge that "he that slumbers in the great halls of R'lyeh is beginning to stir once more".
