Storyboard Text

  • My king, I have wronged you  and in doing so have lost my only son. I come to ask your forgiveness.
  • You are forgiven but must make amends with the Gods and never again fly. Man cannot be like the Gods.
  • After the death of his son, Daedalus returned back to Crete wanting forgiveness for what he had done to the king. He realized that it was his own "destructive art" that had killed his son and caused him to fall deep into depression
  •  
  • In the Kings palace, Daedalus began to destroy his wings, throwing each wing into the fire cursing his bluster, hubris and bravado that caused his only son to die. As he sat there, he began reliving that fateful flight. He remembered it so clearly.
  • How well things had initially gone, how proud he was of Icarus for being so brave and for catching on so quickly.
  • But how quickly it all changed and how in horror he watched as Icarus kept flying higher and before he knew it, how quickly he began falling from the sky, all the while yelling his name. 
  • He keeps one wing to remind him of the day he lost everything, goes to hang it in the temple of Apollo and vows never to fly again.
