Inside the prison, Dants is connected via a secret underground passage to the occupant of the neighbouring cell, Abb Faria, who becomes his teacher and mentor. His arrest was also very timely for Villefort, an ambitious magistrate whose career chances he was unwittingly obstructing. He owed his years of suffering in the dungeon of the Chteau d'If to three scheming, so-called "friends" - Fernand, Danglars and Caderousse - one of whom wanted to deprive him of his wealth, another of his bride. The mysterious individual is actually Edmond Dants, a widely-travelled sailor, and the victim of an evil conspiracy twenty years earlier, when he was falsely accused on his wedding day of loyalty to Napoleon, and sentenced to life imprisonment. No-one knows him, nor what his motivation is. Styling himself the Count of Monte Cristo, he uses his vast wealth to try to secure a place for himself in society. A mysterious nobleman appears in the world of the salons.
