His interaction with Bernardine, a new arrival seeking recovery from her own burdens, sets the stage for a relationship that oscillates between sympathy and existential reflection. Various other characters, including Mrs. Reffold and Mr. Reffold, are also introduced, each contributing to a complex web of social dynamics that explore the intricacies of human connection in a setting suffused with illness and the quest for renewal.
