I really liked this story. It has a nice rhythm to it and it`s well told.
I get the feeling that the reference to Dard-Nag is to an actual place with a mythical history? If so, the writer is taking off from it to imagine another mythical place in the south that was equally devoid of men, and the appearance of a man after a long time arouses its inhabitants to sexual violence, and then to a transformation once their sexual appetites are sated.
Interesting concept.

mystical touch gives this article an impression of vagueness. But the ideas dealt with are unique and strange.
