But his father demands a bride with a proper dowry, and Hermann fears rejection. As friends investigate the mysterious woman's past, they discover tales of her courage and virtue. Through misunderstandings and hesitation, the young man must find the courage to reveal his true feelings before Dorothea disappears forever. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
