  "compares her to ariadne helping theseus through the maze" Given that that ends with theseus abandoning her on a random island Medea should have taken this as a red flag. It's practically foreshadowing

  I like how Hera is explicitly saying that she <b>would</b> help more heroes if the majority of them weren&apos;t Zeus&apos; bastards xD

  Jason to Medea: <br>You&apos;re just the granddaughter of Helios and a priestess of Hecate(whom even Zeus doesn&apos;t dare disrespect), that&apos;s nothing compared to a normal Greek princess.

  Fun fact: the whole story about Medea killing her kids is basically Euripides&apos;s private fanfic. Older sources most commonly say that Medea&apos;s children were lynched by the Corinthians in revenge for Medea&apos;s own murders. Euripides came up with the filicide on his own, and it wasn&apos;t particularly well-received at the time.
