Detailed explanation-1: -Redemption was an ability in Dante’s Inferno which created an aura of protection around Dante.
Detailed explanation-2: -While he seeks a way out of the forest, he meets three beasts: a leopard, a lion, and a wolf. They force Dante back into the dark forest. The three beasts are allegories of three different sins: the leopard represents lust, the lion pride, and the wolf represents avarice.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dante is so shaken by the appearances of the three beasts that he rushes headlong into the dark woods he has just come out of. This is only the first obstacle Dante encounters, but it proves an insurmountable one.
Detailed explanation-4: -Dante finds himself lost in a dark wood, midway through the journey of his life (i.e. at the age of 35). He sees three animals: a leopard; a lion; and a she-wolf. A figure appears, who Dante realises is Virgil, the Roman poet.
