Hippolytus’ step mother, Phaedra, was made to love him by
Aphrodite, whom Hippolytus did not worship.

Whenever she reveals her love to her nurse, the nurse quickly evades her and tells Hippolytus. Phaedra learns
of this however, and when Hippolytus confronts her, she commits suicide

When Phaedra died, however, she was holding a note stating that all this was the fault of Hippolytus. Theseus finds
this and, infuriated, uses one of his wishes granted by Poseidon to doom
Hippolytus.

Hippolytus, too generous to admit the truth about Phaedra, accepts
his fate. He later dies after Poseidon sends sea-creatures to scare his horses, which drag him
into rocks and kill him.
