Part 5/7:
After a hard-fought victory over Rhesus, which reveals the true tactics of war—manipulation and deception—the characters further unravel as Cotys’ treachery is exposed. His ambition leads him to poison Princess Ergenia's husband to usurp the throne, complicating Hercules' mission of peace with the actual uprising against tyranny.
When Hercules confronts Cotys, determined to discover the truth, he finds himself battling not only against armies but the very perception of heroism and morality. As he navigates these challenges, Hercules faces the ghosts of his past: the murder of his family orchestrated by his cousin, Eurystheus.
