Biography
King Laius came to Atlantis in order to meet with King Minos on friendly terms. During his stay, he spoke with the Oracle who foretold that his son would kill him in his future. This prompted him to get rid of the baby in the Forest of Nysa. He worked with Queen Pasiphae in order to rediscover the baby after it was taken by Jason, Pythagoras and Hercules, however he was unsuccessful. One of his court, Tiresias claimed that the baby had been killed and he was left without burden. (Twist of Fate)
