#which was also very funny to hear about when we read phèdre in high school

One of the first greek myths I heard about as a kid was about theseus and the minotaur, but since it was in a children's magazine thing thes cut out some parts, like him forgetting to change the color of the boat's sails. What I'm saying is I was in for a real berenstein's universe moment when I heard the story again in school

#sorry i'm still folding my own labyrinth and i randomly rememmbered this lmao #they cut out the bit with him abandoning arianne (ariadne? idr her name in english sorry) #which was also very funny to hear about when we read phèdre in high school #like damn can't believe my childhood hero and his cool labyrinth adventures were a lie. #but yeah the sails thing was so funny I was like what do you mean they were black. #no they weren't I read about it in the winnie the pooh reading magazine.
