The Labyrinth Lines

Spoiler warning

The following sections contain major story spoilers.

As you progress through the Labyrinth and eventually make it to the end where you will slay the Minotaur you will eventually build your wings and fly over the ocean to escape. As you bask in your glory a little too early, Icarus does what he was told not to do. As he is hit with a ray of scorching sun his wings melt and he plummets into the ocean. Falling from such a height he is knocked out and rendered unconscious. His father, Daedalus, plummets in after him and eventually drowns.

The Chaos DLC

Upon entering the first DLC you will see that both Icarus & Daedalus have been intercepted in the underworld by Hades who is pleading to help them escape as wronged souls have no place being damned. He explains that someone has been breaking demons and hell creatures out. Whoever it is, is helping King Minos gain his power and needs to be stopped. Through the map, he leads you to the exit. The exit to the overworld. However, as you approach the exit you are confronted by none other than Helios. The god of the sun. With the help of Hades, you will defeat him and move on up to the overworld.

The Tranquility DLC

You will trek back into Thebes where you hope to rid the city you once called home of its tyrant king, King Minos, and reclaim your wife from his dastardly grasp. Here you will hack and slash your way through the streets as his guards try and stop you. As you get to his massive throne room you will be confronted with some dialogue and your tied-up wife (and child depending on whether it's solo or co-op). You will fight King Minos in a huge fight. After doing so you will have freed the city and can now live happily with your wife and child.
