Glad to see you back. This is you’re listening to radio revel, Season two: The shepherd's story. Today, you’ve got Episode five: A child unwanted .
Menoetes doesn't share this story with his great-grandson. Instead, his memories, brought on by the stories he has told Demophon up to now begin to run circles around in his mind, bringing on a sleepless night.
Thebes has a new king, but this king brings with him the ire of the gods, as well as a pinch of his own bad fate. Though the king, Laius, tries to stick to the advice given him by the Oracle, his human weakness and, more importantly, his hubris lead him to fall into the trap of that fate. His destiny is written.
