#at least they are both dead so menelaos doesn't have to force Helen to watch her sister die for the crime of killing his brother

[holy-mother-of-whumpers]

So Menelaos and Helen spent 7/8 years in Egypt after the Trojan War right?

According to the Nostoi, lost poem of the Epic cycle.

Agamemnon was killed upon returning from the war.

Clytemnestra was killed by Orestes 7 years later.

...

So Menelaos and Helen come back from their vacation/couple therapy and they find both their brother/sister dead 🥺

No point, I'm just sad for them.
