The opening story, "The Wolf-Gathering," showcases a dramatic tale set in Poland during a time of national unrest, featuring characters such as Mr. Charles, a Polish gentleman turned merchant, and the noble families he recounts with fondness and nostalgia. The opening of the journal introduces a group of friends gathered around the fireplace in Mr. Charles's home, where he shares an evocative legend from his youth about Christmas in Poland.
