What were the Greeks trying to convey from this story?They were trying to display the importance of loyalty. We can see in the story that Jason was not loyal to his wife, Medea, and in return, he never got to see his new wife or sons(not shown) again. The people he loved were taken away and his previous lover was able to live a good life
