That he complicates it is the way in which the messenger affects the plot in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the Corinthian messenger announces the death of Theban King Oedipus' presumed father, Corinthian King Polybus. But he then describes Polybus as Oedipus' adoptive or foster father. The latter comment makes the plot thicken because Oedipus is trying to figure out whether or not he is his father's killer. Now Oedipus needs to figure out who his real father is.
