The story centers around a man named Adam Smith, his daughter Maya, and his recently deceased wife. They live in a castle on the banks of the Pristine river in the French countryside. Adam Smith was once part of high society but retreated to the countryside for a simpler life with his family. His wife recently died after catching a fever while caring for Adam during his illness. This has left Adam and Maya grief-stricken. They receive an unwelcome visit from Adam's arrogant brother-in-law Jhon and his wife. Jhon has bought Adam's childhood home estate and plans insensitive renovations like cutting down old trees. Adam takes Maya on a trip, likely for his declining health on doctor's orders. Before they leave, Maya discovers her father secretly looking at a portrait miniature of another woman and displaying deep emotion, making her question who this mysterious woman is. It seems there are secrets in Adam's past relating to another woman that Maya is unaware of. The passages set up an air of mystery around Adam and his past, especially concerning this unknown woman. Maya's discovery foreshadows misunderstandings and more revelations about her father to come.
