The suggestion of prayer seems appropriate, but who knows where it is proper for Oidipous to live? How can his daughers live a better life than he? Kreon has already suggested consulting Delphi on the first matter, and this promises to deliver more clarity than simple prayer. Consulting the god and asking him to direct their lives also seems to offer Oidipous’s daughters the greatest chance of living better than their father.
