Deianeira learns that Heracles has fallen in love with another woman and fears that he will leave her. In an attempt to win him back, she sends him a gift of a robe that has been soaked in the blood of the centaur Nessus, believing that it will make him love her again. However, the robe is cursed and causes Heracles great pain and suffering, ultimately leading to his death. The play explores themes of jealousy, betrayal, and the consequences of one's actions.
