===Rescuing Helen===
When their sister Helen was abducted by [[Theseus]], the half-brothers invaded his kingdom of [[Attica]] to rescue her. In revenge they abducted Theseus's mother [[Aethra (Greek mythology)|Aethra]] and took her to Sparta while setting his rival, [[Menestheus]], on the throne of Athens. Aethra was then forced to become Helen's slave. She was ultimately returned to her home by her grandsons [[Demophon of Athens|Demophon]] and [[Acamas]] after the fall of [[Troy]].
