The story revolves around the Greek mythological figure, Hercules, and his quest to retrieve three golden apples from the garden of the Hesperides.In the story, Hercules is tasked with completing twelve labors as a punishment for killing his wife and children in a fit of madness. One of these labors is to retrieve the golden apples, which are believed to grant immortality, from the garden of the Hesperides. Hercules sets out on his journey and faces many obstacles along the way. He meets several characters, including the sea-god, Nereus, and the Titan, Atlas, who helps him retrieve the apples.The story is filled with symbolism and allegory, and explores themes such as heroism, temptation, and the consequences of one's actions. It is a classic tale that has been adapted into various forms of media, including films and television shows.
