Summary
“A lack of feeling is a symptom of freeze,” he said, still grimacing. “Perhaps... well.” It was not like him to mince words, and I slowly began to worry. Perhaps this was some attempt at shifgrethor, or another incomprehensible Gethenian ritual which he assumed I knew and at which I could only balk. “To know anything of the intensity of it, I'll have to unfreeze it. To keep it from dying, if it hasn't. I've wasted enough time already; lie down.”

Summary
Before the labyrinth, before Minos knew of the Minotaur's parentage, before Daedalus was imprisoned and needed to flee--Ariadne was a young girl with a surplus of siblings, curiosity, and heart. She tries to help her older brother as he confronts the monster within while also confiding her own fears in Icarus, who is her big brother in every way but blood.

Summary
Ariadne has a brother who is a secret, who is a monster. She does not know he is a monster yet: for that is the secret, and she does not even know he is her brother, for that comes later. She has heard the howls at night, of course, but it is a very long intuitive leap from mysterious noises to Minotaur, so she is to be forgiven for not figuring it out sooner.
What she does know is that her mother cries sometimes, when she thinks Ariadne is asleep.
