Yhteenveto:
Eräs tuomari valvoo pientä yksinäistä asutusta valtakunnan rajalla. Hän odottaa jo lähesty-vää eläköitymistään ja paluuta normaaliin elämään, mutta pöyhkeä eversti ja hänen lakei-jansa sotkevat aikeet, kun he saapuvat kiristämään rajan turvallisuutta. Kun tuomari näkee, miten hänen sotilaalliset maanmiehensä kohtelevat muukalaisia, hän alkaa pohtia, ketä kohtaan hän onkaan uskollinen. Storyline At an isolated frontier outpost, a colonial magistrate of an unnamed empire suffers a crisis of conscience when an army colonel arrives looking to interrogate the locals about an impending uprising, using cruel tactics that horrify the magistrate.
