about to go slay the minotaur of cretes haha lol catch me celebrating like crazy on the ship after this
it’s so dark in here
this sucks. i can hear things dripping from the ceiling to the floor. all i have is uhhh a torch a sword and some thread. dude the thread isn’t even mine i have to give it back after this. someone remind me to give the thread back lol
wait there’s something on the floor over there lol. I’ll go check it out be right back
i feel sick
listen i knew. i knew, okay? people died here i knew that but gods. some of the bones even have coins for charon near them. what kind of monster is this
that noise was NOT water.
horns. it has horns. it has a cow’s hide on its chest and pale skin on its legs and two feet but it doesn’t trot and it doesn’t walk. it mouths things silently like it’s going to talk but all that comes out is a roar. it doesn’t sound like a man it sounds like. like. it hasn’t seen me yet. it’s eating. what is it eating??????
there’s no way i can fight this. i didn’t even bring a coin for myself. oh gods. oh gods I’m a coward. I’m a coward
no fuck wait I’m not a coward. none of you would do this okay listen none of you have even seen a minotaur before. I’ll tell you what it’s fucking like. that thing is taller than me a OH FUCK
I GOT IT i got it i slashed it on the leg and ran away again i got it. i got it oh my gods. I’m out of breath. oh gods
i have to kill it. i have to kill it don’t i. even if i manage to find the thread and go all the way back to the entrance they’re just going to send me back in. or send someone else in and i don’t want it to be someone else. i have to get out of here. have to finish the job
is that. is that crying
who’s crying? that’s definitely not a roaring sound it’s like. it’s more like howling? but it sounds like someone else. what the fuck is happening I’m going to go look
oh
his eyes are like mine. i looked out from behind the wall and the minotaur was just kneeling there holding his leg. i looked at the minotaur and he was crying and his eyes were like mine and they were brown. and they were scared.
i can’t do this.
i can’t. do it. i said i was going to but i don’t think I’m strong enough for this. but i have to. fuck
would it be a mercy? has he seen the sun since he was born? has he felt the breeze? has he talked to anyone? held anyone’s hand? how can he even cry with the head of a bull?
well. i guess the question is. why shouldn’t he cry
when the minotaur gets up he’s probably going to want to kill me and i don’t blame him. i need to get out of here before then. i
where’s the thread.
there’s no other exit. they won’t let me out of here unless someone is dead. oh gods.
what was her name? ariadne. ariadne gave me that thread. so i have to give it back to her. i have to make it out alive. please
please.
fuck this.
i need to get out of here. i have to. i have to get out of here. please please nobody can hear me except for the minotaur and i don’t want to die but he doesn’t want to die either i need to get out of here. i have to do this please oh gods. please forgive me I’m so sorry. i have to do this i don’t want to die I’m sorry i have to get out of here and if i do this PLEASE I HAVE TO
I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. i. the ground here is too cold. too solid. i can’t bury you. i don’t even have any coins. i can’t put you in an urn. i can’t carry you out. I’m sorry.
