The Origins and Trials of Hercules
Iolaus
You think you know the truth about him? You know nothing. His father was Zeus. The Zeus. King of the gods. His mother, Alcmene, a mortal woman. Together, they had a boy. Half human, half god. But Zeus queen, Hera, saw this bastard child as an insult, a living reminder of her husband's infidelity. Alcmene named the boy Hercules, which means glory of Hera, but this failed to appease the goddess. She wanted him dead. Luckily, he took after his father. Once he reached manhood, the gods commanded him to perform Twelve Labors, twelve dangerous missions. If he completed them all and survived, Hera agreed to finally let him live in peace. He fought the Lernean Hydra! He battled the Erymanthean Boar! But his greatest Labor was the Nemean Lion. This was no ordinary beast. It had a hide so tough, no weapon could penetrate it. But even this monster was no match for the son of Zeus...

Counting Pirates After a Successful Night
Autolycus
Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen...
Atalanta
That was fun.
Autolycus
...eighteen, nineteen, twenty. 20 pirates at two gold pieces a head, minus the headless ones. Let's see.
Hercules
Not a bad night.
Iolaus
You see how the pirates ran? My story softened their resolve!
Autolycus
Their resolve must be broken, Iolaus. When you speak the legend of Hercules, make it bigger, scarier! The more they believe Hercules is truly the son of Zeus, the less like they are to fight.
Amphiaraus
Aye.
[stokes the fire]
Hercules
Amphiarus.
Amphiaraus
Hmm?
Hercules
Care to join us here on Earth?
Amphiaraus
A lion and a crow in strange alliance, fighting across a sea of corpses.

The Truth About Hercules Unveiled
Iolaus
You think you know the truth about him? You know nothing. His father was Zeus. The Zeus. King of the gods. His mother, Alcmene, a mortal woman. Together, they had a boy. Half human, half god. But Zeus queen, Hera, saw this bastard child as an insult, a living reminder of her husband's infidelity.

But even this monster was no match for the son of Zeus...
[narrating; Hercules strikes the Erymanthean Boar face-down]
Gryza
What a load of crap!
Iolaus
Every word is true!
Gryza
You know what I think? This friend of yours doesn't even exist.
Iolaus
Laugh all you want. He's coming, and be warned, Gryza, he despises pirates.
Gryza
Macedonia has been good to us, plenty of villages ripe for pillaging. We are here to stay. Finish him.
[to a pirate]
Pirate
The more you struggle, the faster you drop.
[puts the torch on the rope holding Iolaus]
Iolaus
Indeed, your fleet is strong. I... Yet, as I was about to explain before I was so rudely interrupted, the Nemean Lion was strong, too. Yet, he still destroyed it, and not with a sword or a spear or arrows. No!
[notices a figure approaching]
Hercules
I did it with my bare hands! Or so they say.
[reveals himself]
Gryza
Hercules...
Hercules
Is this all the men you have?
Gryza
There's 40 of us, one of you!
Hercules
The king of this land has offered me gold to dispose of you! So leave or die. I get paid either way.
Gryza
Make him bleed.
[five men charge but Hercules knocks them out at once]
Iolaus
Ha! Five men with a single blow! Still think you can destroy the son of Zeus?
Gryza
BRING ME HIS HEAD!
