At the start of the narrative, the author introduces her journey across the Albanian mountains, detailing the landscape and her companions, including an energetic young woman named Frances Hardy and their local guides. The text captures the sense of enchantment and unpredictability that accompanies their expedition into a world steeped in ancient customs and blood feuds.
