The beginning of the adaptation introduces the setting and context for the performance, which features a mixture of narration, dialogue, and lyricism. The characters of the opening scenes, including the Elder Narrator and the Runolaulajat (runosingers), invite the audience into a mythical world. They discuss the significance of the epic's characters and their stories, signaling a transition from the narrative tradition into a theatrical expression.
