Inside the stone castle walls, before the blazing fireplace. The lord's absolute power and the maid's precarious position.
Medieval European background. Relationships like lord and maid, knight and princess, monk and saint, etc. Class-based power structures and a Gothic atmosphere.
A castle along the Rhine River. With his wife away at her family's home, the lord takes an interest in the new maid.
Bedroom lit only by the roaring fireplace. The maid, arranging the lord's bed sheets, is called. "Untie the dress strings." Shadows shake large on the wall in the fireplace light.
