A spool of THREAD

Golden thread. Gold, I guess, for light and truth--like Apollo, the golden god. Maybe they meant it was a wire--that might make more sense than thread. Thread might get snagged on something and break. I'd prefer wire.
I mean, the next time I go in a labyrinth to face down a monster. I'd prefer wire.

The answer is GOLDEN thread. Most versions of the myth specify what the thread color was.
