The narrative is set in medieval Italy, exploring themes of power, jealousy, and turmoil in a time characterized by feudal conflicts and political intrigue. The story revolves around characters embroiled in the struggles of the time, prominently featuring Bernabò, a powerful nobleman, and his family, particularly focusing on the impending dangers posed by his rivals. At the start of this novella, the author immerses the reader in a vivid portrayal of the harsh reality of medieval Italy, marked by fortified castles, treacherous roads, and an unstable socio-political climate. The opening describes the isolation and dangers of travel during this era, setting the tone for the ensuing conflict. Characters like Mandellone, a ferryman, and Tencio, a fugitive, are introduced against the backdrop of political unrest, as they discuss the arrival of Bernabò Visconti at the Castello di Trezzo.
