In 4.12 A New Man, Giles met Professor Walsh for the first time. He said:
“You’re hard to find. These halls are quite the labyrinth. I felt like Theseus and the Minotaur in the… labyrinth.”
Giles is referencing Greek mythology, in which the Minotaur (a creature with the head and tail of bull and the body of a man) was cast into a huge maze known as the Labyrinth. Theseus killed the beast by fastening a ball of thread at the entrance of the maze, and using it to guide himself to the Minotaur, which he beat to death. He then used the thread to make his way out of the Labyrinth.
