Answer: Then she gave him a sharp sword, and hid it underneath his cloak, telling him that with it alone could he hope to slay the Minotaur.
Explanation:
"Cruel Tribute" is a story of the Greek city of Athens having to sacrifice some of their best youths to the King of Crete, Minos, who would then put them in a labyrinth with the Minotaur to be devoured.
