Telramund family

Name origin: Greek princess, daughter of Leda and Tyndareus, half-sister of Helen. Helen married Menelaos of Sparta, and Klytaemnestra married his brother Agamemnon; both became involved in the ten-year Trojan War. After Agamemnon sacrificed their daughter Iphigenia on the orders of a priest, Klytaemnestra vowed revenge and took his cousin Aegisthus as a lover. When he returned, the pair murdered him and his slave Kassandra. Eventually they were both killed in retaliation by Klytaemnestra’s son Orestes.
