That fate cannot be avoided is the central theme of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the story deals with the reactions of Theban monarchs Jocasta, Laius and Oedipus to horrendously prophesied fates. Each one makes an effort to sabotage the fate in question and to subvert divine will. But everything that the trio does serves only to hasten the complete unfurling of relentless fate in every single last dreadful detail.
