Dire wolves were larger and more aggressive than regular wolves. These beasts often hunt and fight in packs, using their intelligence to surround and overwhelm their prey.
Aside from being strong, these beasts were extremely agile and fast. That's why Alaric took a longer time to slash and kill several dire wolves.
Since they were outnumbered, the young general tried his best to kill as many as he could while relying on his knights to protect his wife in the moving carriage.
However, just as the carriage created a large distance from his current spot, he heard a sudden noise. Turning around, he saw the carriage overturn as a large group of dire wolves attacked it simultaneously from one side.
"Damn it!" He cussed under his breath as he tried to chase after the collapsing carriage.
