Quotes:
The Storyteller: Daedalus, the master who designed this labyrinth. Who's mind produced these dizzy passages. Daedelus the genius, who invented ships which could sail under the sea, Fireworks which would knock down a wall, lenses, that set together could see as far as the stars. Fantastic machines. He fell so far, he fell so far from grace he finished a broken man. Making the same little clay figure over and over: a child with wing.
The Dog: A child with wings? who was that?
The Storyteller: The one thing Daedelus made he had no control of. The one thing he ever truly loved. Icarus, his son.
