"For Woman's Love" by Emma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte Southworth is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story primarily revolves around Regulas Rothsay, a self-made man who transitions from an orphaned boy to the governor-elect of his state, and Corona Haught, his first love and a beautiful heiress. Their much-anticipated wedding is shadowed by ominous forebodings and the sudden vanishing of the groom, setting the stage for drama and intrigue. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the significant moments leading up to the wedding of Regulas Rothsay and Corona Haught. The narrative unfolds through conversations among various townsfolk who reflect on Regulas's humble beginnings and his rise to prominence, fueled by his love for Corona. However, just as the celebrations begin, a mysterious figure, Old Scythia, prophesizes doom for the governor-elect, foreshadowing potential tragedies. The chapter sets a tone of celebration intertwined with mystery, positioning Corona at the center of emotional conflict as she prepares for the wedding amidst creeping dread, suggesting that the events that follow will intertwine love, ambition, and the dark shadows of fate.
