      The Story of a Bull Monster
      No Expiration
      St. Petersburg Adventurer's Guild
      This is a request from a child in a town. They said they saw a statue of a man fighting a bull monster, but it looks like it was based on a legend. They want you to find out what kind.
      Maybe you should go and try asking a young boy in town about the legend.

                    A Story from Another Country
                    A story about a battle with a bull monster? I haven't heard it... Maybe it's a legend from some other country...
                    The Travelling Entertainer visiting this town travel all around to many countries, so he might know something!

                    The Bull Monster of Crete
                    A story about a man fighting a bull monster? Isn't that the legendary Greek hero Theseus's story? As I recall, he defeated a bull monster on Crete...
                    The scholar in Athens should know the details of this story.

                    The Monster, Minotaur
                    I think the monster the hero Theseus fought was called the Minotaur. It was a beast with a human's body and a bull's head. IT so happens that I have the book with that legend right now. Will you have a look? Please come speak to me again when you'vw finished reading it.

                    Terror in Athens
                    ...In the basement of Knossos Palace on the island of Crete dwelt the monster, the Minotaur. Athenai, present-day Athens, was under the control of King Minos of Crete, and every year 14 boys and girls were required to be sent as sacrifices. One fateful year, the young prince of Athens, Theseus, offered himself...'

                    Infiltrating Crete
                    ...Theseus had decided to volunteer himself as a sacrifice then eradicate the Minotaur. Thus, 14 boys and girls, including Theseus, were sent to Crete. When they arrived, they were sent to the dungeon, where Theseus happened to meet Ariadne, King Minos's daughter...'

                    The Key to the Labyrinth
                    ...In the basement of Knossos Palace whas a maze, called the Labyrinth, and it was said that those who entered never reemerged. Ariadne fell in love with Theseus at first sight, and gave him some red thread, which would be the key to the Labyrinth, and a dagger, to fight the Minotaur...'

                    The Minotaur's Demise
                    ...Theseus entered the Labyrinth while trailing the red thread behind him, and fought the Minotaur waiting in the centre. He stabbed the Minotaur, and followed the red thread back out of the Labyrinth. Finally, together with Ariadne, he escaped from Crete...'

                    Identifying the Location of the Statue
                    What do you think? Theseus was brave, wasn't he? By the way, there is a statue which captures the scene of Theseus and the Minotaur fighting in this town. Do you want to have a look? I will ask the owner of the mansion for permission so please go see it.

                    Ballad of Theseus
                    Apparently, the statue of the man fighting a bull monster depicts the legendary Greek hero Theseus's battle with the Minotaur. It sounds like the statue is on a mansion in Athens, so when you are ready, go take a look.

                        The statue of the legendary Greek hero Theseus's battle with the Minotaur. It is said that Theseus decided to eradicate the Minotaur of the Labyrinth in Knossos Palace on Crete to end the Cretan tyranny over Athens.
