The narrative unfolds in the quaint town of Podolin, nestled in the mountains, which has a rich history of foreign rule and a longing for its lost Hungarian heritage. The story revolves around the enigmatic character, Riminszky Kázmér, a wealthy yet eccentric man, who is deeply entrenched in the town's ancient customs and its historical context. The opening of the narrative introduces the town of Podolin and paints a vivid picture of its medieval ambiance steeped in nostalgia. It describes how the townspeople, long under foreign rule, retain their connection to their Hungarian roots, particularly through the figure of Riminszky, who lives a reclusive life surrounded by wealth derived from sheep herding. As Riminszky leads a life of solitude, he becomes an intriguing figure with a penchant for the past, while the town slowly begins to awaken from its long, quiet slumber. The text sets the stage for a profound exploration of identity, tradition, and the societal shifts that come with time. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
