The story opens as Hercules seeks out the gods. After the death of his mother Alcmene he calls out to his father Zeus who explains that he must complete nine tasks and submit to the judgment of Eurystheus before he is allowed among the immortals. Hercules agrees and heads off to begin the first of his assigned labors, to kill the Nemean lion. After a series of encounters and struggles Hercules faces off against the dreaded lion and, using his massive strength, subdues and kills it. Hercules takes the lion's skin as his mantle and heads off to his next task.

Hercules
Hercules seeks shelter in a cave where in the smoke of his fire Zeus and Hera appear. She then offers up a fourth task: get her some Golden Apples found in the other-dimensional world of Nul. He leaps into the portal and out in a desert landscape. There he meets a giant named Atlas who is chained and holding up a giant stone slab. Hercules throws the chain of Atlas into one of these rocks and frees the giant. Atlas takes Hercules to the Golden Apples and tells him that time is different in Nul and Hercules returns with the prize much to Hera's displeasure but Zeus is very happy.
