Part 2/7:
The story opens in 358 BC along the Macedonian Coast, where Iolaus, a storyteller and nephew of Hercules, finds himself a captive of pirates. To stall for time, he shares the legendary origin of Hercules: the son of Zeus and the mortal Alcmene, born into a world rife with danger and conflict due to Hera's wrath. Hercules, characterized by his extraordinary strength and courage, undertook the Twelve Labours, facing monstrous foes like the hydra and the Nemean lion. However, the pirates dismiss Iolaus' tales, unaware that Hercules is on his way to rescue him.
When Hercules arrives, donning the Nemean lion's hide, he effortlessly defeats the pirates alongside his skilled team, consisting of Amphiaraus, Autolycus, Tydeus, and Atalanta.
