"Twisting in streams to sea or fountainhead, The dubious waters turning left or right, So Daedalus designed his winding maze; 
And as one entered it, only a wary mind Could find an exit to the world again — Such was the cleverness of that strange arbour."
[Et nunc ad fontes, nunc ad mare versus apertum incertas exercet aquas:
ita Daedalus implet innumeras errore vias vixque ipse reverti ad limen potuit: tanta est fallacia tecti.]
Ovid, Metamorphoses, Book VIII, l. 165-168.

"You should look, not to the source from which these things come, but to the goal towards which they tend.... 
This is what happens when you hurry through a maze: the faster you go, the worse you are entangled. Farewell."
[Intuendum est non unde veniant, sed quo eant... Quod evenit in labyrintho properantibus: ipsa illos velocitas implicat. Vale.]
Seneca, Moral Epistles to Lucilius, Epistle 44. On philosophy and pedigrees.

Justice, a.k.a the Maker, penetrates Sandal's mind to learn about red lyrium conversions.
The process can be of extreme use when Erika & Anders go to live among Grey Wardens.

"Once upon a time, a long time ago, when King Solomon ruled the land, a son, an only child, was born to Solomon 
and his wife Bilqis. To their unending grief, the infant was deformed in all his limbs. He could not walk, nor could 
he lift even a crust of bread to his hungry lips. From the very moment of his birth Solomon and Bilqis prayed to God 
to send a cure, until one night the angel Gabriel appeared before them in a dream, and told them that if only they 
could speak the truth to one another, their child would be made whole. And so Bilqis turned to Solomon and told 
him that whenever she set eyes upon a handsome young man, her heart would ache with lust. As she spoke, the child 
stretched forth his hands. Then Solomon confessed to Bilqis that whenever one of his subjects came before him 
seeking wisdom, he thought only of the gift he would receive. As Solomon spoke, the child stood up and took a step."
Nizami, Tales from the Khamseh, The Seven Princess: The Yellow Pavilion.
