In 1228, Leonora arrives at Ezzelino da Romano’s castle to confront Riccardo, who seduced and abandoned her and is about to marry Cuniza. Leonora reunites with her father, Oberto, and Cuniza agrees to help them. Cuniza ultimately tells Riccardo to return to Leonora, but Oberto insists on a duel. Riccardo kills Oberto, then leaves in exile and bequeaths his possessions to Leonora, who decides to become a hermit.
