Fedra (Phaedra) was Minoa's daughter and Thisea's wife.
When Fedra first saw Hippolytus, Thisea's son, felt in love with him.
Hippolytus mother was the Amazon Antiopi that died in the battle next to Thiseas.
Fedra couldn't hide her feelings about Hippolytus so she decided to give him a love letter.
Ippolitos refused the love of his stepmother and Fedra killed her self because she
was afraid that Hippolytus could say everything to Thiseas, her husband.
Before she died, left a letter to Thiseas, accusing Hippolytus for indecent suggestions to her.
Hippolytus was kicked out form Athens and then Posidon sent a bull that
frightened Hippolytus's horses, that dragged him till death.
