Messenger

The messenger appears only once in the play he relates in gruesome, vivid detail the death scenes of Glauce and Creon, which occur offstage. His description of the gruesome scene makes Medea to appear like a heartless selfish woman, who does not care much about anybody but her own selfish ego.
