Telephassa

In Greek mythology, Telephassa (Greek: Τηλέφασσα, "far-shining"), also known as Telephe (Greek: Τηλέφη) or Telephaassa (Greek: Τηλεφάασσα), was a daughter of Nile and Nephele. Telephassa married Agenor and bore him four children: Cadmus, Cilix, Europa, and Phoenix.
After the abduction of Europa by Zeus, Agenor sent his sons out to search for their sister and instructed them not to return unless they found her. Telephassa traveled with Cadmus to find Europa to Rhodes and Thera before going to Thrace, where Telephassa got sick and died.
