This is the story of Theseus, King of Athens. The tale begins with his triumphant return from Crete, after slaying the Minotaur, to mount the throne left empty by the death of his father Aigeus. All through his reign, Theseus is torn between his genius for kingship & his truant craving for adventure. His love of danger draws him to challenge the pirate prince, Pirithoos, to recognize him as a kindred spirit & to join his forays. As Theseus is setting out toward Crete for a dynastic marriage with Phaedra, Pirithoos lures him off to explore the unknown Euxine, where he meets & captures the young warrior priestess Hippolyta. She's the love of his life. Their love is the crux of his fate.
