INSTRUCTIONS: 1) Contact Ariadne. (Ariadne can be a friend, a friend of a friend, or an Ariadne chosen at random from a phone directory.)
2) Ask her for a list of her ten favorite places in the city (or as many as she is willing to share).

3) Plot these places on a map and draw a line between them.

4) Follow Ariadne's thread. Watch out for the Minotaur on your journey.

The Brownlands: Minotaur


Roosevelt Bridge and Beyond



Following Ariadne's blood red thread through the cityscape, lost and reunited, following in the steps of heroes gone before us, slowly we trace our way back toward the dark heart of the maze: The Brownlands.


From Roosevelt Bridge, in the horizon off to the southwest, one can see the beast.

This is fantastic! I hope the journey wasn't too arduous for you... did the sustenance raise your spirits some? Anyway, I'm glad I could help. Good luck with the rest of your game!
