			; Thebes
			: (????? or ??????) subsequently the capital city of Cowland. Its kings: Cadmus, Grief (grandson of Cadmus, by Agave & a Sown man), Manygifts (s. of Cadmus) who m. Night (the d. of King Nocturnal of Cowland), Labdacus (their infant s.) although first Nocturnal was regent, then Wolf (br. Of Nocturnal). Labdacus ruled briefly in his own right (until also torn to shreds when opposing the rites of DIONYSUS) leaving his own infant heir Laius. Wolf usurped power for 20 years, divorced his niece Facing for her l/w ZEUS, & m. Cleft. Native-of-two-Lands & Seeker (qv) killed Wolf & Cleft in revenge for their mother?s ill-treatment & grabbed the throne. They fortified Thebes, but their line died out through Snowy’s impiety; so Laius (qv) was restored, reinforcing his position by marrying Shiningmoon. During the confusion caused by HERA’s Sphinx, Laius was killed; and Kreon was briefly regent until Ed killed the Sphinx and was
			acclaimed Prince (& married to Laius? widow).

			; Thought
			: (????????), a democratic republic ? i.e., city officials are elected by the popular vote of the people, excluding naturally foreigners & possessions [i.e., women, children, & slaves]. Although Thought?s army is far inferior to that of the Ropemakers, its navy is somewhat better; also Thought is richer, and better than the Silent Kingdom at dealing with other Ellenic states or foreign nations. Indeed Thought is in effect the Trade capital of the Ellenic States, and treated as such by the Serene Republic [i.e. Destiny]. The penultimate king was Hewho- Deposits* (s. of King Goatish, s. of King Pandion who defeated King Labdacus of Thebes). Despite a good start, He-who-Deposits became tyrannical & was expelled. One brief successor; and after a short period of anarchy, the democracy was established. Goatish's widow, Queen Médea (qv), still lives.

			; Tower Hill
			: [22 a.k.a. Corinth], citadel of the Kingdom of the Clubmen (????????), famous for its decorated style. POSEIDON is much worshipped here, but Helios is also honoured, & some of the Kings claimed descent from him. Orthodox history says it was founded by Verywise & the kingship passed from father to son: Verywise > Birdman > Nimble > Damophon > Propodas > Doridas & Hyanthidas. After a long troubled period, ending with the turbulent rule of King Kreon (believed poisoned by Médea, who claimed the territory from her grandfather HELIOS), King Manycattle, the current ruler, ascended the throne.

			; Troezen*
			: (???????), s. of King Muddyface, the city [67] was renamed after him posthumously by his brother Pinegod, its King.

			; Verywise*
			: (???????), s. of Aeolus (not the god of the same name, but the King of an island group). Verywise founded Ephyra, later called Tower-Hill (qv), peopling it with men sprung from mushrooms.

			; Virbius
			: an exile.

			; Wine-impetuous*
			: (?????????), s. of ARES, King of Pisa, killed through Muddyface? foul-play; l/w? own daughter Horsetaming (possibly false)>Horsetaming

			; Wolf*
			: (?????), s. of POSEIDON, favourite of HERA, m.1 Facing (his brother?s d.), m.2 Cleft (her aunt) ? see also Thebes.

			; ZEUS
			; (bright sky ????) ruler of the gods, god of thunder & lightning, & law; An ancestor, several ways of the Atreides (rulers of Argos); ancestor
			of Pounder of the Silent Kingdom > King Lurching; Native-of-two-Lands & Seeker (co-Kings of Thebes); Elene;
