"So Hephaestus..." I asked slowly "Do you know how to get out of here?"
Wait what was I thinking, of course he knows how to get out of here, this is his forge! Isn't it?
Hephaestus chuckled " you kids these days! Of course I know how to get out of here, this is my
forge!"
"Ok" I asked "Can you show me the way out?"
Hephaestus chuckled again "Nice try, but you have to find my mechanical spider somebody
stole, I have a clue from the person who stole it to get it back. Great, just great. To get out I have
to find the stolen mechanical spider.
"Fine give me the clue." I said.
"Not so fast you have to find the clue." Hephaestus said,
"WHAT!!" I yelled.
"Yep, and no more yelling or your going to scare Parker away."
Then Bang, a clock went off somewhere close.
"Well would you look at the time, it's noon, time for you to get going. I hope you get out ok. Ta-
Ta!"
"Wait!" I yelled, "how is it noon? I entered the cavern in the morning at like 9 o'clock."
Hephaestus sighed, "time runs differently in the labyrinth."
Then he disappeared in a puff of orange smoke.
