	Laius
		This was because Laius had learned from the Oracle at Delphi that any son of his would one day murder him.
		During a trip by chariot to visit the Oracle at Delphi, Laius encountered a man in the road.
		Laius drove the chariot onward, running over the stranger's foot.

	Laius and Chrysippus - Greek Mythology
		Laius, the king of Thebes, was said by many to have been the first mortal to bring the practice of the love of youths to the Greeks, yet others credit king Minos of Crete.
		Laius was immediately accused of the deed, but Chrysippus had recognized Hippodameia as she fled (on her way to take her own life), and with his last breath declared the king innocent.
		Nevertheless he put a bitter and terrible curse on Laius, one that was to spread like a darkling cloud over him and his descendants, down to the third generation.
