However, when it was Polinikis&#8217; turn to govern, Eteoklis did not keep his promise. This caused wrath to Polinikis, who made an alliance with Adrastos, the king of the city of Argos, and organized a quest against Thebes. Seven leaders from each of the two opposing troops lined up on both sides of the seven gates of the city. Eteoklis and Polinikis ended up being one against the other in the seventh gate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wc-responsive-video wc-rv-id-https-youtu-be-zkk0pbtdzzk wc-rv-post-2423 wc-rv-ratio-16-9\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"970\" height=\"546\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZKk0PBtDZZk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Eteoklis is the lonesome main hero of the tragedy.
