In 1626 France, a nun warns a travelling English theater group not to take a short cut through the forest. They do not heed her warning and are viciously attacked by a pack of wolves (vampires). Among those killed is a newlywed couple, Peter and Meg Benedict.

A medic crawls through the dust and smoke, giving aid where he can. He sees a body, a large shard of wood protruding from the chest. The medic tries to help the wounded man. Just as he extracts the wood, shrapnel from another mortar hit strikes him. As the medic draws his last breath, the man draws his first in three centuries. At that very moment, the vampire that created him smiles, knowing that one of his "children" is alive again.
