You play Medea, an Asian princess who helped the Greek hero Jason to get the golden fleece. Since her father was the previous owner, she had to leave her city with Jason -- but she would have done so anyway, being madly in love with him. Unfortunately for Jason, his uncle Pelias did not give him the throne of Iolcos when he returned with the golden fleece. Medea killed Pelias, but she and Jason had to flee the city and sought refuge in Corinth.
Our game starts when Medea has learned that Jason plans to leave her and marry the princess of Corinth. Half-mad with anger, she has threatened to destroy him and his bride. The king of Corinth takes this threat very seriously, and has decided to banish Medea and the two children she has borne to Jason. Medea is, understandably, upset.
Now Jason has come to justify himself. It is up to you to gain the sympathy of the women of Corinth.
