	The Minotaur ~~outlasted~~ its creators ~~by far~~.		The Minotaur long outlived its Isu creators. At some point during the 5th century BCE, a group of Messaran men, including [[Nikios]] and [[Swordfish]], entered the labyrinth in search of riches and treasures. Instead, they were attacked by the Minotaur. Nikios was locked in with the beast while the others fled, terrified to their core.<ref name="Of Minotaurs and Men">''Assassin's Creed: Odyssey'' – [[Of Minotaurs and Men]]</ref> By the time of the [[Peloponnesian War]], the myth of the creature had spellbound the people of [[Pephka]], and they had turned the city of [[Lato]] into a shrine to the beast, erecting statues of it and even emblazoning their banners with its visage.<ref name="ACOd">''Assassin's Creed: Odyssey''</ref>
