The story
The Story
Hello, I am Aegeus, king of Athens. My son, Theseus, recently traveled to Crete to fight the Minotaur and since then I have not heard from him! Some people told me they saw his ship return with black sails, which would mean that he is dead. But he can't be. My gut tells me he's here somewhere. Where could he be hiding? My heart has sunken! Have you seen him anywhere? Let's go look for him together! We will go up to places with panoramic view in order to locate him and visit ancient municipalities where the inhabitants will help us find him.
