The narrative introduces us to Sigrid, the main character, within the context of a deteriorating religious environment, as tensions and conflicts arise against the backdrop of societal issues and historical upheaval in Finland. The opening of the novel establishes a poignant scene in a ruined convent garden, where Sigrid Eriksdotter Liljeholm and a dying nun, Elin Knutsdotter, engage in a heartfelt discussion. The aged nun reflects on the decline of their sacred space and shares her resolution to perform evening prayers despite her frail state. As she prepares for the prayers, Sigrid struggles with her own beliefs and the weight of tradition around her. The dialogue hints at past glories and the waning influence of the church, while foreshadowing the struggles of the characters against the winds of change and turmoil in their lives. This introduction sets the stage for broader themes of faith, loyalty, and the contrast between youthful idealism and the looming pressures of their crumbling world.
