Mariam's reflection _ Chapter 1
ReplyDeleteThis chapter is about a story of Minotaur, it's based off of the Greek mythology, about a king Minos of island Crete, who was the son of Zeus and Europa. The main characters of this story are: Ariadne, the narrator, and Enarus. In the first chapter, characters already face some problems and now they have to think about the solutions, that will help them to solve these problems. I love Greek mythology and most likely i will love this story as well
Nice!

ReplyDeleteIn these two chapters we meet a new character. His name is Theseus, his very strong and he cares for his people. Ariadne wasn't fond of him at first, but she figured it would be better for them to work together. I like Ariadnes character, she's very smart and brave .She has a lot of fight in her and I like the fact that she isn't satisfied with her life as a princess and wants to experience new things in life. She believes that true love exists and she is willing to sacrifice a lot for this matter. I like that she thought of tieing a golden thread to the door handle of the labyrinth.
5th chapter
ReplyDeletein this chapter Phedra, Ariadne,Theseus and his crew members are running towards the ship which Dedalus prepared for them.The ship wich they were intending to escape with, had darker sail then the other ships.Ariadne noticed the ship with the black sail and quickly ran towards it, Phedra, Theseus and his crew members also followed.They relised the ship and started to sail.Strangely warm wind started to blow, it was very unlikley event for this season.Suddenly the grund started shaking and the houses started to crumble.It would seem that the gods were angry with king Minos.The screams of people was getting more and more intense, but the waves and the wind wouldnt stop.The ship
was sailing faster then ever, apparently father of Theseus was Poseidon god of seas, who was helping them ascape.Phedra started to cry, this was getting serious, it wasnt any game that Phedra imagined.The other day averyone was exhausted and hungry.They found food and weater on the ship Theseus thanked Ariadne, but it was all because of Dedalus that they ascaped, but Ariadne was too tired to explain.They could still hear the screams comming from the place once called Cretta.The fire was still blazing and the castle where Ariadne and Phedra lived was crumbled.
5th chapter
ReplyDeleteIn fifth chapter Ariadne, Theseus, Phedra and Athenians run away from Crete. I really enjoyed reading this chapter. A lot has changed since the beginning of this story; characters become more mature as the story develops. I think, Phedra changed a lot, from a stubborn little girl to a brave and obedient young woman. Even Ariadne is surprised by her development in character.
Also relationship between Theseus and Ariadne is becoming more and more friendly. At first Ariadne didn't like Theseus, but now she realized that he is a hero and a kindhearted person. In my opinion, they will develop even stronger feelings toward each other.
6-7 chapters
ReplyDeleteIn these two chapters events developed so much.when they were in the sea phedra saw the land.it was kalliste. In kalliste they bought some food and more water. They didn’t stay there,because adriane couldn’t wait to see Enarus. Theseus got angry. He shouted to Phedra and his friends to come in boat and they left Kalliste. Then they went to Naxos. Theseus went with his friends to buy a new white sail for the boat. Adriane and Phedra went to find Enarus. Adriane thought that the temple of Dionysus was the best place to look for Enarus. She was right, because when they arrived at the temple she saw a small garden. Someone was sitting there alone. It was Enarus. When they saw each other they became so happy. Then Adriane talked to Enarus. She told him everything. After some time they went at the harbour. Theseus was waiting there and looking for them angrily. When he saw Adriane, Phedra and Enarus suddenly he looked more unhappy than angry. Then Adriane and Enarus explained to Theseus everything. Then they all went to temple to eat. The priests gave them a wonderful meal and somewhere to sleep. Next day before they met at harbour Adriane told Enarus that she didn’t want to be princess anymore,she wanted to stay with him. They went at harbour. Then Adriane told Theseus that she was going to stay in Naxos,but Phedra wanted to go with Theseus. Theseus didn’t like what Adriane said . So without talking he said to phedra that it was the time to go . They went in boat and sailed away.
These two characters were so interesting. I really enjoyed reading them .

Ariadne wakes up on the boat where she sees Theseus and Phedra quietly talking to each other.Theseus gives Ariadne food and water and tells her that she could eat as much as she wanted, because they would soon arrive in Kalliste.Ariadne still had her neckless and Theseus had some gold in his cloak, so they were not worried about food and water.Theseus tells Ariadne and Phedra that his father was waiting for him in Athenes and they could also stay there, but Ariadne refuses.Theseus was also conserned about the black sail of the boat, because he told his father that if he would see a ship with a black sail it meant that theseus was dead.Ariadne got tired and went to sleep Phedras voice woke her up, it would seem that they arrived at Kalliste.Theseus once again asked Ariadne why she wanted to go to Nexos, Ariadne got angry and reminded Theseus about the labirinth.Suddenly Theseus yelled at Phedra he said that they were going to Nexos.
8th chapter
ReplyDeleteIn this chapter Ariadne marries Enarus and They have two kids: Artemisia and Orestes.Theseus becomes a king, but sadly his father passes away. Theseuses second wife becomes Phedra, but they are unhappy and soon Phedra kills her self.
I think, this chapter had the most plot twists out of all of them and it kind of made me sad. I feel very sorry for Theseus. In my opinion, he never got over Ariadne. The only one that was satisfied with the life that they lived was Ariadne. Not even her sister, who married the man of her dreams was happy at the end. I thought I already knew how this story was gonna end, but I was mistaken. This story caught me off guard. I wasn't expecting so many deaths.
7-8 chapter
