Creon's royal accession and meeting with Oedipus as well as Oedipus' demand for exile and meeting with his daughters are four incidents in the resolution of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the resolution happens between the falling actions and the play's actual conclusion. It includes Creon's accession to the Theban throne that disgraced King Oedipus must vacate for criminal acts and immoral behavior. It also involves Creon's meeting with Oedipus as well as Oedipus' request for exile, a meeting with his daughters, and permission to be accompanied by his daughters into exile. It terminates with Oedipus being led under house arrest into the palace.
