That's why I said "would be".

I do not think that this is ever used in French as you say it.
''Entre chien et loup'' is a ''the'' single idiomatic Expression I know. I could be wrong.
à propos: By me saying that: Thésée is in the labyrinth ''from dusk to sunrise'', I mean to say: that is there ''all night''.

The "crépuscule du matin" would be "entre loup et chien". The image of the dog turning into a wolf is associated with nightfall, not with sunrise.

I do not have the answer but there is a difference in what I perceive and that is: that ''l'heure entre chien et loup'' does not just refer to twilight but to dusk and nightfall as well or, to the so-called ''crépuscule'' in French. And even tough the majority of English dictionaries point to the same meaning in terms of ''light fading'' in the day etc, one has to consider that in French there are two ''crépucules''_ ''le crépuscule du matin et le crépuscule du soir''. Which makes me think that what the author is trying to say in Cependant, toutes les heures tournent au Labyrinthe... is that Thésée is in the labyrinth from dusk to sunrise.

Methinks Nikki and I are on a tutoyer basis by now (or should that be thouthouyer?).

Methinks thou dost mean "lest thou trieth"!

Thou trieth; ye try.

Verily!

For your first sentence, "twilight" for "entre chien et loup" would probably be the safest, lest ye trieth to do something in another style altogether.
