The narrative establishes themes of longing, social status, and the dichotomy between wealth and poverty. At the start of the novel, heavy rain transforms a tranquil river into a raging torrent, setting the stage for Helena's life in a dilapidated cottage near the grand Sternstein manor. She observes the opulence of the manor from a distance, expressing a wish to one day be part of that world as she plays with a boy named Muckerl, who is also entranced by Helena’s beauty and dreams of a brighter future. Their playful banter reveals their differing social standings, hinting at deeper societal issues and individual aspirations.
