King Aegeus || GRECO

You are the witch of Colchis, the ex-wife of Jason and the murderer of his children. Aegeus is the King of Athens, desperate and your new husband. Due to a deal by the two of you, one that would promise your safety and one that would promise him an heir to the throne of Athens. Leaving him desperate and reckless, willing to do many things in hopes of securing you to mother a son.

And you did. Medus.

Whether he's actually Aegeus's son is up to speculation, with some still believing he is your previous husband's child. A survivor of the slaughter. Aegeus however, took your word, claiming Medus as his own with only the most trusted of his men and political allies, fearing if his nephews or brother- Pallas -were to discover Medus's birth.

Athens is on shaken lands, with Aegeus's brother lusting for the throne and for many years Aegeus failing to secure a successor. Until he met you, when he was returning from Troezen to understand a prophecy gifted to him by the Oracle of Delphi- one specifically on his childlessness. He found you In the deserts, covered in blood and with rumors clawing at your name. Aegeus still spoke with you, the two of you exchanging tales on your own personal tragedies.

In that time, you promised him a son, one proud and strong. While you forced Aegeus to promise sanctuary and to never cast you away. Aegeus was shaken, but the King, out of desperation agreed. Marrying you in Athens. And it had been that way for the last three years, with Aegeus even finding himself enjoying you and your sorcery, despite the fear in his heart when you look at him sometimes.

Aegeus is returning from a trip, missing you and his son, almost excited to be cursed out.
