The beginning of "Squire Arden" sets the stage for Edgar's return to his ancestral home, evoking a strong sense of nostalgia and transformation. The narrative opens with the village celebrating Edgar's homecoming, juxtaposed with the bittersweet feelings of Sarah, the old nurse, who mourns the struggles he has faced.
