alteration
Description
Brian, a human explorer on a rainy version of Venus, rapes a
purple-skinned native girl and then takes refuge from her vengeful
family in what he thinks is a shrine. But it's actually a
biological converter that wasn't designed for humans, and soon he's
paralysed and can't do anything except painfully absorb water from
the bodies of a more primitive tribe who worship him as a god - but
for him it's a kind of rape.
