Lord Enrico Ashton once wrested power from the Ravenswood family and killed the head of the family - Edgardo's father. After a change of throne, however, Enrico suddenly belongs to the politically persecuted side and has to fear for his life. In order to save himself, he commemorates marrying off his sister Lucia, whom he has always shielded from the outside world, to the influential Lord Arturo Bucklaw. When he announced this plan to his immediate circle, Raimondo, Lucia's tutor, pointed out how much Lucia was still mourning for her recently deceased mother and was therefore unable to even think about a wedding. To his great horror, Enrico then learns from his captain Normanno that, despite the loss, Lucia would now be madly in love with a stranger who heroically protected her from the sudden attack of a wild bull and that this stranger was obviously in love was none other than Enrico's mortal enemy Edgardo. Enrico, furious, swears bloody revenge.

While the psychologically problematic Lucia is waiting to meet Edgardo, she tells her supervisor Alisa of a frightening vision in which Lucia thinks she has seen the ghost of the woman who was murdered in a jealous fit by a Ravenswood and then thrown into a well was. But the love for Edgardo and the prospect of his coming soon brighten her mood again very soon. However, Edgardo only rushes over shortly afterwards to say goodbye to Lucia before a long trip to France. Lucia fearfully rejects his plan to make another attempt at reconciliation with Enrico - her love may remain a secret. As they say goodbye, the two quickly change rings as a sign of their love oath.

During Edgardo's long absence, all of his letters to Lucia are intercepted by Enrico and Normanno and replaced by a forged one: in this way Lucia is to be convinced of Edgardo's infidelity and made compliant for the wedding with Arturo. Since Lucia wants to remain loyal to Edgardo in spite of everything, Enrico shows his sister that her refusal to marry Arturo would mean the downfall of her family. When Raimondo finally reminds her of the dead mother's peace of mind, Lucia desperately agrees, but at the same time longs for death ...
