Well here I leave something of Greek mythology! I hope you like it!
In Greek mythology, Icarus is the son of the architect Daedalus, builder of the labyrinth of Crete, and a slave. He was imprisoned with him in a tower on Crete by the island king, Minos.
Daedalus escaped from prison, but could not leave the island by sea, as the king kept a close watch on all the vessels, and not allow any browser without being carefully searched. Since Minos, the king controlled the land and sea, Daedalus set to work to fabricate wings for himself and his young son Icarus. Feathers bonded together starting with the smallest and adding increasingly longer, to form a larger area. He said the largest wire and smaller with wax, and gave the whole a gentle curvature like the wings of a bird. Icarus, his son, watching his father and sometimes ran feathers collected from the ground that the wind had blown, and taking the wax with your fingers work, hindering their games the work of his father. When he finally finished the job, Daedalus flapped his wings and found himself up and suspended in the air. Then equipped his son in the same way, and taught him how to fly. When both were ready for flight, Daedalus warned Icarus that flew too high because the sun's heat would melt the wax, nor too low because the sea foam would wet the wings and could not fly. Then father and son flew away.
passed Sama, Delos and Lebintos, and then the boy began to ascend as if to get to paradise. The blazing sun softened the wax which held the feathers together and they were removed. Icarus flapped his arms, but were not enough pens to hold it in the air and fell into the sea. His father cried and bitterly lamenting his arts, called the land near the site of the sea into which Icarus had fallen Icaria in memory. Daedalus arrived safely in Sicily under the care of King Cocalus, where he built a temple to Apollo in which he hung his wings as an offering to God.
