Later, forced to roam through district after district locked in the jaws of a brutal winter, the now legendary Courtaud breaches the walls of Paris and leads his pack into the city. Driven by starvation and tempted by human corpses in the war torn villages, the wolf-dog becomes a man-eater. When the castle is attacked and looted by roaming écorcheurs and the count murdered, the young wolf-dog escapes into the ravaged countryside where he joins a wolf pack and becomes a daunting and unflinching leader. Only one of their pups survives and grows into a wolf-dog demonstrating the characteristics of each parent - huge and fearsome and capable of anything. One of them, a huge Alaunt, mated with a wolf captured and kept by the count for the urine used as a bait to trap other wolves. Count Raoul de Villeneuve was only moderately fond of hunting so he maintained no more than six hundred dogs of various breeds in his castle.
