Synopsis: Seld ("Fortune"), a damsel in distress, has been chased for three years by the Wunderer ("the Wonder-Maker"), a knight of gigantic proportions, Herculean strength and ogrish tendencies, assisted by his slavering pack of hounds. Because she has refused to marry him, the Wunderer now seeks revenge and is set on eating her up. Seld finds refuge at king Etzel's court, where no one dares defend her and defy her hungry suitor, except young knight Dietrich, who will fight the monster.
