Set against a backdrop of political intrigue, the narrative follows a king and his private secretary, Firmin, as they embark on a leisurely mountain walk after a boat trip across the lake. Firmin, a former professor of international politics, grapples with the impact of atomic bombs on his worldview while navigating his new role, which largely involves listening. Their conversation touches on an upcoming conference, revealing the king's desire for simplicity and his disregard for royal etiquette, as Firmin carries supplies for their journey.
