'Manifold strife' is an English equivalent of 'Polyneices' [ÃŽ ÃŽÂ¿ÃŽÂ»Ãâ€¦ÃŽÂ½ÃŽÂµÃŽÂ¯ÃŽÂºÃŽÂ·Ãâ€š, Polyneíkes].

The Greek word is the name of the Theban royal heir who is the son of Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta; the sibling of Theban Princesses Antigone and Ismene; the husband of Argive Princess Argea; and the father of Adrastus, Thersander and Timeas. Unfortunately, he doesn't get to occupy the throne, because his twin brother Eteocles refuses to honor their joint power-sharing arrangement. Both brothers carry this royal disagreement as far as they can, to their mutual deaths on the battlefield.
