In this episode, after a long absence, we pick up where we left off in recounting the stories of the city of Thebes. When one of the sons of Oedipus steals the throne, seven champions step forward to attack the city on behalf of his spurned brother. Meanwhile, Oedipus meets his fate near Athens (though not without causing problems for all involved,) the blind prophet Tiresias remains blind (and a good prophet,) and a whole lot of Thebans and other Greeks die.
