Answer:

In the plot of "Cruel Tribute", All of the above mentioned points apply as a result of King Minos's actions.

Explanation:

King Minos, grieved and filled with revenge, made a decree on Athens that as payment for the death of his son Androgeos, Athens must pay a tribute of seven noblest youths and seven maidens to be served to the monster Minotaur. As there are no other way to pacify him, Athens agreed to pay the tribute. Young people had to participate in the lottery for the tribute to be paid. King Aegeus' son Theseus also went with the group as the seventh youth, and was given a silken thread by the princess Ariadne to help them come back from the Labyrinth. And with the help of the sword provided by her, Theseus fought the Minotaur, and escapes along with the rest of the youths and maidens. But, in their excitement, they forgot to put the white sail which was to indicate that he is safe. King Aegeus, in sorrow fell into the sea and drowned, so the people made Theseus king.
