At the start of the novel, the narrative focuses on Isak's solitary trek through a vast and desolate landscape, where he contemplates his life and purpose. He carries a sack filled with essential supplies and tools while making observations about the terrain around him, suggesting a deep connection to the land he intends to inhabit.
