Long long ago on the island of Crete there lived the Minotaur. He was half man and half human and only likes to eat the flesh humans. that land was ruled by King Minos, a very harsh man. King Minos wanted to have a very harsh punishment for his enemies. He asked Daedalus to build a maze where a human goes in and will never survive because the Minotaur gobbles him or her alive. He threw Icarus and his Daedalus into the maze to get eaten in the labyrinth. But the knew the way out way because Daedalus built the labyrinth. They survived but didn’t know how to get after the island. Daedalus looked up and said “If only I was a bird I could fly away to the other island”. Then Icarus said

“We can swim”

“It’s too dangerous” Daedalus said. “Gather round some feathers”

“OK Dad” said Icarus . He ran around to get some small medium and large feathers.
