| Hydra
Legend / Myth |
Hydra was a multi-headed sea creature that inhabited the lake near Lerna in the Argoid. It was alleged the lake had an entrance to the Underworld which it guarded. When one head was chopped off, another two would grow in its place. The only way of killing it was to chop off its head and setting fire to the severed neck. Hercules would chop off the head and Iolaus, a companion would set fire. During the fight, Hera set Cancer the crab to make things harder for Hercules.
