== Overview ==
The House of Minos is located in an archipelago<ref name="IBA" /> and to the east (of Izril)<ref name="1.03R" />, which possibly means that their isles are part of or close to [[Drath Archipelago|''the'' Archipelago]], as there are trading and cultural connections between [[Drathians]] and Minos. Otherwise, their archipelago may be a different and distant one.
The House of Minos consists of [[Minotaurs]] and is ruled by the Minotaur King. The current [King] is female, but Minotaurs claim that gender doesn't matter there and outsiders would judge their ruler differently were she called [Queen].<ref name="IBA">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/08/interlude-burning-alcohol/ Interlude: Burning Alcohol]</ref> She is exceptionally popular.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/07/05/interlude-the-isles-of-goblin-and-minos/ Interlude - The Isles of Goblin and Minos]</ref>
Places on the Isles of Minos include ''The Beriad'', ''Hammerad'' and ''Maweil'', although nothing specific is known about these places so far: they are part of toponymic surnames.
Minotaurs wishing for the immense honour to leave the House of Minos have to pass severe testing. [[Calruz]], [[Venaz]] and [[Bezale]] each went through these tests, which apparently involve fighting.<ref name="IBA" />
