| Summary | "The Eyes of Thar" by Henry Kuttner is a science fiction novella written in the early 1940s. The story is set on a desolate and ancient Mars, specifically in the region of Klanvahr, where the protagonist, Samuel Dantan, grapples with themes of love, loss, and vengeance. The narrative delves into a world where remnants of a forgotten civilization and its myths intertwine with personal vendettas and interdimensional encounters. The plot follows Samuel Dantan, who returns to Klanvahr, marked as an outlaw, driven by a thirst for revenge against the Redhelm Tribe for the death of a woman he once loved—a death that haunts him despite the years that have passed. His journey takes a dramatic twist when he discovers an ancient laboratory belonging to a man named Sanfel, and he communicates with a mysterious voice of a woman named Quiana from another universe. As the two face threats from powerful enemies, Dantan’s feelings about Quiana revive old heartaches, revealing her connection to his past and the nature of their reality. Ultimately, the story explores the convergence of their worlds and the complex intertwining of destiny, love, and sacrifice, culminating in Dantan's realization of the harsh divide between their existences.
