Jules Lavigne lived a happy life. He never married or had kids, but he was a jolly old bachelor and died in 1890 surrounded by loving friends. He was a writer, artist and adventurer. You always admired his work, and so were thrilled when his house was sold for such a low cost.

While others have found it too unnerving to cohabitate with a housemate long deceased, you might find that an intelligent man who’s lived for almost two centuries may have helpful advice and stories to share with you if you’re willing to befriend him.

A dark and terrible legend: Poseidon demanded the sacrifice of a beautiful white bull from Minos, the king of Crete, but Minos kept the bull for himself. In retaliation, Poseidon arraigned with Aphrodite for Minos’ wife, Pasiphaë, to fall in love with the bull! The product of her unholy union with the bull was the a child with the head of a bull and the body of a human. This hybrid creature was called the “Minotaur.” Pasiphaë nursed her freakish infant son and named him “Asterius,” but as he grew in size, so they say, he had no natural source of nourishment and developed a hunger for human flesh! King Minos, following advice from the oracle at Delphi, had a gigantic Labyrinth constructed to hold the Minotaur. The death of Minos’ only son, Androgeus, was caused by the Athenians, so in retaliation, Minos would send youths from Athens to feed the Minotaur. “But cows eat grass, so why would a half cow hominid eat humans?” You wonder. Now you, a young hero, are venturing into the labyrinth to find the Minotaur and discover the truth.
