This is the transcript for Theseus and the Minotaur (In a dark room, the camera pans onto an old-looking book.) Narrator: For thousands of years, there have been great sagas of brave heroes who battle hideous monsters for untold rewards. Of journeys into the unknown. These stories are told over thousands of years. Narrator: In ancient times, the island of Crete was ruled over by the noble King Minos. Guard: (to a man who is still standing) Bow down before your King! Minos: Ah, I love the sound of grovelling subjects in the morning. Ariadne: Dad, please. This has to stop. Ariadne: But why?
