The opening of the novel introduces us to the main character, who reflects on his dreams about the Arctic as he sets sail. He is accompanied by his brother Andrew, the ship's surgeon, and soon meets a stowaway, Ewen, who also longs for adventure. As they begin their voyage, they hear tall tales from the ship's crew about past adventures and dangers, which provoke a mix of excitement and apprehension in the protagonist, foreshadowing the challenges and perils they will face in the unforgiving Arctic wilderness.
