Two female missionaries are bound to a tree and burned alive in undetailed fashion. Characters are threatened with guns and spears. There is very mild supernatural threat.
There are examples of historical racist behaviour, such as a man referring to Africans as “barbarians”. There is infrequent very mild bad language ('hell', 'God', 'damn').
