When he meets the Russian, Marlow has just had his class and confidence shaken by his encounters in the African wilderness. The Russian, who has been going in Africa for a long time, shows up as another acculturated man untainted by the abhorrences that so harmed Kurtz and, to a lesser degree, Marlow. In this way, he goes about as a connection to the "ordinary" world that Marlow has abandoned.
