Initially, Elisabeth enjoys a simple existence filled with the beauty of nature, but she becomes increasingly aware of her parents' sorrow, prompting her to devise a bold plan to journey to St. Petersburg and seek the emperor's grace to free her father. Despite her naivety about the dangers of such a journey, her resolve is strong, and she seeks guidance from a benefactor, M. de Smoloff, whom she hopes might aid her in this perilous quest.
