Pagicide or Raptricide

So, patricide is killing one's father and regicide is killing one's king......so if it's the child of the king who does the killing, it's .......

Luckily, Wikipedia has many more examples of the phenomenon -

In the Greek creation epic, Cronus was poisoned by his son Zeus and wife Rhea (a case of turnabout being fair play ... remember Uranus?).

Apsu, in the Babylonian creation epic the Enuma Elish, was killed by his son Ea in the struggle for supremacy among the gods.

And then there's the combination of matricide and regicide ... magicide or ratricide?
