Annoyed, Kratos tries to push the old man aside as Icarus yells about the futility of his quest stating that only he will fly across to get an audience with the Sisters and change his fate. He tries to get Kratos to stop his quest, rambling on about how he will never make it across the chasm. He appears as an old, filthy looking, insane man. When Kratos meets him he crawls from underneath a bridge in the Great Chasm. He is found on the Island of Creation in God of War II on a quest to change his fate. Unsatisfied, Icarus sought to save himself from his pitiful existence by reaching the Sisters of Fate and preventing his death. Lacking much of his father's talent, Icarus spent decades crudely repairing his wings, eventually grafting them to the flesh of his back, which finally allowed him to escape the Underworld. In the God of War series, Icarus died and fell into the Underworld, where he was driven insane by the torment of his prison and his own prideful failure. The loss troubled Daedalus so much that he refused to share the plans for his wings until his death. He flew so high, the heat of the sun melted the wax in his wings, and he plunged to his death into the ocean where he would drown afterwards. The two escaped, but Daedalus warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun. The clever Daedalus plucked feathers from the birds that landed at the window and, over time, gathered enough to build two pairs of wings for himself and his son, Icarus. In reality, the father and son were Minos' prisoners, imprisoned in a tower. In Greek mythology, Icarus is the son of Daedalus, King Minos' architect, who built the labyrinth for King Minos to imprison the Minotaur.
