Minos MinoV Minos


King Minos is an unpleasant character who rules his Kingdom by fear. He also has designs on others' Kingdoms including that of Ageus. Ageus is the only King who stands up to Minos's bullying and for that reason Minos dislikes him intensely. To make matters worse his daughter Ariadne's fiancee is Theseus, the son of Ageus.

When Theseus visits Ariadne, Minos has him thrown into the Labyrinth. In Lost in the Labyrinth, Ulysses, guided by the advice of the Oracle, travels to the Labyrinth on a quest to rescue Theseus. When Minos hears that Ariadne, too, is in the Labyrinth he also makes his way there but arrives too late and is left standing alone outside the Labyrinth pondering the error of his ways.
