  4. It starts with a man named Oedipus, who was King of Thebes. There's a pestilence plaguing the land and people come to ask for his help. They ask him because he solved the riddle of the Sphinx and because of this was greatly revered. He learns the last king was killed and the murderer was still in the city. The climax was when he learned that he was the killer and father of his own children. In the end he tears his eyes out and orders for his daughters to be taken away somewhere safe where they can be taken care of.
