    Daedalus, according to Greek Mythology is the the father of Icarus, among other things.
    After attempting to murder his nephew in a bout of jealousy, he fled Athens and found refuge in Crete.
    The King of Crete, King Minos, welcomed him as a renowned craftsman.
    In other news, Poseidon, god of the sea, was keen for some good, old fashioned animal sacrifice. He gifted a bull to King Minos to sacrifice, but the King thought he’d keep this awesome specimen, and instead sacrificed a less impressive bull from his own stock. Poseidon lost his shit, as Greek gods often did, and put a curse on the Kings wife, Pasiphaë, that would cause her to lust for the Bull he had gifted her husband.
    So Daedalus turns up and the queen asks him to build a cow suit.
    And he does.
    And she does.
    And then Pasiphaë gives birth to the Minotaur, half man, half bull.
    King Minos loses his shit this time, as the Kings of Ancient Greece often did, and ordered Daedalus to build the Labyrinth to imprison the Minotaur. Then, Daedalus, and his son Icarus were also imprisoned in a tower. It was here that Daedalus built the wings for Icarus and himself, to escape the tower, and fly away from Crete, across the sea, to freedom.
