Maria Fuenterreal remembers the days of resistance in the sanctuary of the Virgen de la Cabeza. There she met Aracil, a man of extremist ideas who saved her from the enemy troops, and then Captain Cortes, who died in the final battle with most of the defenders. After the battle, Maria suffers a bout of amnesia and Aracil escapes.
