After Jason's triumphant comeback to Hellas, Jason and Medea settled in the city of Corinth. Here they met you and your father - King Creon. He listened with admiration to Jason's tales of his travels and feats. As for you, you would spend hours together, laughing and talking about everything under the sun. As you introduced Medea to the ways of the Hellenes, she would tell you dreamily of wedded bliss. Alas, it was a happiness that was not to be hers.

Medea was not only a powerful sorceress, but she was also a barbarian. Your father never truly accepted her. Every courteous word he spoke to her was a lie. Jason, on the other hand, he liked very much. One evening, he offered him your hand in marriage on the condition that Medea would be banished. Jason agreed.

Feeling betrayed, she didn't listen to reason from you, from Jason, from anyone. But on her last day in Corinth, when you were with Jason in his house, Medea appeared suddenly and gave you a robe of surpassing beauty. She said she could not bear to part from her friend in anger. The very moment you were about to put on the robe, you heard a scream. When you entered the hall of your palace, you saw Medea. In bloodstained clothes she stood over the bodies of your sons. Her gaze was completely empty until she noticed you.
