In the wilderness north of Rat Portage in Northwestern Ontario, two Scotsmen - divinity student Simpson and his uncle, Dr.
Punk alone could have explain.
The poor guide dies soon after, and the three men are left in a state of bafflement and uncertainty about what has occurred.
Conflicted and disturbed about what they have witnessed, they return to the main camp to find that D fago - the real D fago this time - has made his own way back, suffering from delirium, exposure, and frostbite.
Cathcart and Hank go back with him to search for D fago, and when camping once more out in the wilderness, D fago - or some hideous parody of D fago - appears before them before vanishing once again into the night.
Dr. "Simpson finally manages to make his way back to the main camp, where he is reunited with the others.
Eventually, both sets of tracks vanish, and Simpson believes he hears D fago\'s distant voice calling out from somewhere in the sky above: "Oh oh This fiery height Oh, my feet of fire My burning feet of fire ...
The larger set of footprints are not human, and gradually it seems that D fago\'s own tracks have metamorphosed into smaller versions of the larger set.
He follows his footprints in the snow for many miles, realising that D fago\'s are not the only set of tracks.
Later D fago runs off into the night, forcing Simpson to go and look for him.
That night, Simpson wakes to find D fago cowering in terror from something outside the tent.
Simpson and D fago make camp, and it soon becomes clear that D fago senses - or at least thinks he senses - some strange and fearful odour on the wind.
Cathcart goes with Hank, while D fago guides Simpson in a canoe down the river to explore the vast territory beyond.
While their Indian cook, Punk, stays to tend the main camp, the others split up into two hunting-parties
Dr.
Cathcart, an author of a book on collective hallucination - are on a moose-hunting trip with guides Hank Davis and the wilderness-loving French "Canuck", Joseph D fago.
