- 523 BC, Ancient Greece; The Nemean games were on
- TEST / INNERMOST CAVE / ORDEAL
- Deeply regretful, Hercules went to the Oracle of Delphi to ask how he could redeem himself. The Oracle instructed Hercules to go and serve Eurystheus, king of Tiryns, who had devised a series of tasks that matched Hercules up against the most horrendous monsters of the time. The tasks were known as the Twelve Labors of Hercules. Fortunately for us, we don't have to delve into all twelve labors in this lesson because slaying the Nemean Lion was task one!
- ROAD BACK
- One day, Hercules studied his opponent while watching him from the bushes.
- REWARD
- In the darkness, Hercules felt around until he came upon the lion. Realizing his presence, the lion lunged, but Hercules whacked him on top of the head with a club. The lion swayed, clearly rattled. Hercules took advantage of the moment and put the lion in a choke hold. Then, he slowly strangled him to death.
- Hercules placed the Lions head on top of his own and headed back.
- Got more recognition, became more powerful as a god.
