It's one murderous party with siblings Orestes and Electra! There's a reason it's a story covered by all three remaining tragedians.

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: Electra by Euripides, translated by John Davie, and Orestes by Euripides, translated by Robin Waterfield.
