Некоторые люди пытались разгадать загадку, но ничего не получалось, и они умирали. В конце концов ситуация ухудшилась настолько, что царь решил, что ему стоит самому принять какие-то меры. Однако, царь Лай был сам виноват в появлении Сфинкса. Этим его наказала Гера, царица богов. Позже на дороге царь встречает юношу, направлявшегося в Фивы сразиться со Сфинксом. Но они поругались. . Юношу звали Эдип. Лай проехал своей колесницей по ноге Эдипа. А Эдип вонзил свой клинок в живот царя. Эдип очень хотел стать героем. И когда он встретился со Сфинксом, он разгадал загадку. Позже он стал царем Фив и женился на царице Иокасте. Но он и не знал, что Царь Лай был его отцом, а царица Иокаста его матерью.
