This is how Hercules became immortal!

Hercules is my favorite character in Greek mythology! Hercules was a demigod and he earned his freedom and immortality (turning him into a God) by completing tasks set to him by Eurystheus, King of Tiryns and Mycenae. These were called the twelve labours, one of which was killing the minotaur.

The Twelve Labors are an interesting story - an act of revenge by Hera, who was jealous of Hercules because he was Zeus's son from one of his mistresses.
