Daedalus and Icarus were stuck in Crete because without the ships they could not escape.
One day Daedalus look at some birds in the sky and came with a wonderful idea.
Wings!
They started putting the feathers of the birds together with wax and after some days the finally finished.
Daedalus gave Icarus some instructions ,one of them was too not get to close to the sun or the wax will melt.
Do not get to close to the sun or the wax will melt.
Icarus hoisted flight, he was so happy flying that he forgot the instruction he went to close to the sun and the wax melted, Icarus felt to the water and drowned.
Daedalus landed in the island nearby and name it Icaria in name of his dead son Icarus.
