The Son of Zeus

Heracles’s parents are Zeus and Alcmene. Zeus had an affair and now his wife, Hera, is out to kill Heracles in any way possible.

Hera like I said earlier wanted Heracles dead. But, she gave him the curse of anger which made him kill his wife and kids. As a result Heracles was sent to do 12 labors to make up for his wrong doing

 One: The Nemean Lion  Two: Hydra  Three: The Cernitian Hind  Four: The Erymanthian Boar  Five: The Augean Stables  Six: The Stymphalian Birds  Seven: The Cretan Bull

 Eight: The Mares of Diomedes  Nine: Hippolyte’s Belt  Ten: The Cattle of Geryon  Eleven: The Apples of the Hesperides  Twelve: The Capture of Cerberus

He became a Full-fledged god. And was given a goddess for a wife and lives in Mount Olympus.

 Helped the gods win a battle with the giant

I believe that the story of Heracles was told to teach the Greek’s that if you work for something you can accomplish it.
