You, plotting to kill me, kill the king!-

Not at all. Why would I do that when already having power and living in peace. 

Have you no sense. Why this public outburst? Intothe palace now. And Creon, you go home.

Creon and his prophet has told me that I am the one who killed Laius.

Do not listen to prophets they do not know what the future is.

Why should I not believe them? Please do tell.

A prophettold Laiusthat I would bear a child and he would kill his father and marry his mother. But Laius had been killed where three roads met by a group. And we had sent a shepherd to leave the child on a mountain to die.

Polybus is dead and the people want you to come back to Corinth and rule.

I still can not go back with my mother alive and risking marrying her even though I did not kill my father.

Your father? Polybus was nothing to you, not in blood.

So you are saying Plolybus and Merope were not my real parents? Then who are my parents.

Yes, a herdsman had brought me you still when a baby. I brought you to them because they had no child.

I need to talk to this herdsman.

The queen had told me to leave the baby, you, with tied legs on the mountain to die. I had felt bad for the baby so I gave it to this messenger on my way, so he could take it far away.

Tell me old man Now! Or you will forced with pain.

I am too old to remember anything.

Have you given this messenger a child or have made any deals with him?

Who are my real parents?

Jocasta why are being so frantic? Tell me.

No please stop!

I will never see anything hopeful again.
