The narrative follows Pietari Särkilahti and his companions, young Finnish clergymen who have recently returned from studies in Germany, as they engage with the challenges of religious reform in their homeland, amidst conflicts with the established Catholic Church and its representatives like Bishop Arvid Kurki. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to the vibrant setting of a spring morning as a religious procession blesses livestock in a Finnish village. Pietari and his fellow young priests, including his cousin Silta and their friend Mikko, are aboard a boat, reflecting on their recent return home. As they approach Laukossa, they express a mix of eagerness and apprehension towards the impending tasks of religious reformation against the backdrop of political instability and war. The dialogue reveals their commitment to the teachings of Martin Luther and outlines their mission to challenge the prevailing norms of the Catholic faith, setting the stage for both personal and ideological conflicts as they navigate their roles in the tumultuous environment of 1522 Finland.
