That all prophecies come true is what Oedipus realizes at the climax of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the climax happens when Oedipus processes two eyewitness accounts. The Corinthian messenger identifies Oedipus as the adopted or foster son of Corinthian monarchs Polybus and Merope. The Theban shepherd indicates that Oedipus is the biological son of Theban monarchs Laius and Jocasta, the killer of the former and the spouse of the latter. Oedipus witnesses the realization of his prophesied fate as his father's killer and his mother's husband.
