CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.

Sources: Sophocles' Antigone: quotes from the translation by Diane Rayor; translations by Frank Nisetich from The Greek Plays, new translations edited by Mary Lefkowitz and James Romm, Elizabeth Wyckoff and Robert Fagles may have also been referred to; Early Greek Myths by Timothy Gantz; Theoi.com.
