| Altar of the Minotaur |
The Lair of the Minotaur is a setting in King's Quest 6. It is found in the The Sacred Mountain Catacombs.
About
Through the Hole-in-the-Wall Alexander could see an enormous gilded room. As he watched breathlessly, the Minotaur itself entered that room through a concealed passage, carried Celeste to an altar, and bound her to it. Celeste struggled against her bonds with no success, her great wings twitching, but no more. Satisfied that his victim was secured, the bull-headed monster walked away and occupied himself with what looked to Alexander as unhurried preparations for a sacrifice. For a moment, Alexander hardly noticed when his vision was interrupted by the Hole-in-the-Wall's retreat, disappearing to who-knows-where. He had to get Celeste, and there was little time to do so. He would have to find his way to her unaided.
Alexander began running back the way he had come, through the room's only exit, and in his excitement tripped, fell, then sprawled flat on his face. Rolling over onto his back, wiping the blood from his chin, he caught the gleam of words on the vaulted ceiling above, this time a longer sentence--and set of directions--than any before:
When Wending Ways Seeking Secret Entrances, Silence Encourages Extra Nonsense. Echos are Not Neglected
The directions he had been following, Alexander realized suddenly, were not a way leading out of the catacombs. They never had been. They were to show him the way into the Minotaur's lair![1]
