Escape the Maze of the Man-otaur

Suddenly, you awaken to the clanking sound of your cell door opening. You’re an Athenian prisoner of war, captured by your Spartan enemies, so yeah. You’ve had better days. A Spartan soldier appears in front of you, ordering you to follow him.

“So, am I to be freed?” you ask, naively.

Spartan laughter – obnoxiously hearty – fills the small chamber, then he angrily points his spear at your forehead, right between your eyes. He forces you through a few torchlit stone hallways, until you reach a wooden door with the latin word…

“STRAGES” 

“Step up to the door,” the Spartan soldier orders. “If you escape this maze, you will be free. However, no one has ever escaped, because inside lurks the deadly… MANotaur. It has the arms, legs, and body of a bull, with the head of an angry man. A man with a persecution complex. Also, big horns. Anyway, good luck, asshole!”

Slowly, you turn the doorknob and open the door. Once you step through it, you could become MANotaur food. Assuming MANotaurs eat humans. You literally have no idea.
