The old Sacristan quarreled with his only nephew who had married for love, not dowry. Lotte and Hemmerich had one son, Otto. When Otto was eight, Lotte died and for four years, the father would not be separated from his son, so the boy grew up learning the ways of the forest. Then Hemmerich was badly injured. Before he died, the Sacristan promised to care for Otto and Hemmerich died in peace. Soon it was time for Otto to chose a trade and he wanted to become a huntsman like his father.

Then Otto fell in love with a woman much like his mother.
