>> Arise.

>> Soldiers are coming!

Soldiers! Soldiers are coming!

>> ( shouting )

>> ( women screaming )

>> Stand fast!

Hold your ranks.

Stand fast!

>> Hera, look down on us.

Please hear our prayers.

Gracious lady,

mother of the gods...

>> Retreat!

Retreat!

Retreat!

>> Mama. Mama.

Mama.

>> Jason!

It's all right.

I've got you.

>> We must have the archers

at the west wall.

>> Sire, the west wall

has already fallen.

>> Then bring them back

to the inner ramparts.

>> Sir, the archers

are all dead.

>> Majesty.

>> Jason, thank the gods.

Thank the gods you're safe.

>> He is not, sire,

for the enemy is all

but upon us.

>> Then gather the guards

and drive them from the palace.

>> Majesty, we are overwhelmed.

Majesty, save yourself.

Save your son.

>> Hera, look down on us.

Please hear our prayer.

Gracious lady,

mother of the gods,

protect us from the enemy.

>> Take the boy.

Take him now.

>> ( men shouting )

>> Brother.

>> I should have known

it would come to this.

>> I am only here to claim

what's mine.

>> Your claim is false.

I would sooner die

than see my kingdom

in your hands.

Kill me.

But in the name of your honor,

spare my wife and child.

>> Oh, brother,

brother, brother.

What do you take me for?

A savage?

Let me show you

how gracious I may be

in victory.

All I seek is my destiny.

>> No!

>> And my destiny

is to rule.

The son and heir.

Well, well.

>> No, please.

>> Nephew.

>> Please.

He is a child, please.

I beg you.

Take him!

>> Kill him!

>> Very impressive.

Don't say a thing.

>> There's nothing to say.

Your weight should be more

forward on your front foot.

>> Yes, I know.

>> Shall we try again?

Or come the games,

we may disgrace ourselves.

>> No.

I have greater things

to ponder than games.

>> ( hoofbeats )

>> Interesting how the Ram

revolves around the Bear.

Theta and Gamma

leading the way.

>> Theta and Epsilon.

>> Of course.

>> I had that dream again.

The gods torment me with it

and I don't know why.

>> It's not only a dream,

Jason, it's a memory.

>> What is this?

>> It is the emblem of Hera

and offers her protection.

It once belonged to your mother.

Queen Polymele...

wife of Aeson, King of Ioclus.

>> My father a king?

>> He was slain

by Pelias, his own brother.

>> And my mother?

>> She lives.

>> Why has she never sent word?

Does she not know where I am?

>> When Pelias seized the crown,

he took her as his wife

and queen.

But you are the rightful heir

to the throne.

And that makes you

the mortal enemy of Pelias.

>> And my mother?

Is she my enemy, too?

>> Are you all right?

>> I'd like to cross

this river.

But it flows so deep

and vast.

>> I'll help you

if you'd like.

>> That's kind of you,

young man.

Where are you bound for,

young man?

Ioclus?

>> You know it?

>> Oh, yes.

And what do you seek

in Ioclus?

Not riches, I hope.

>> No.

>> Just as well.

It's a poor country,

bled dry by its king.

>> Pelias.

>> Pelias the taxer,

they call him.

Of course, searching for

the Golden Fleece

is an expensive business.

>> The Golden Fleece?

>> The greatest gift

from gods to man.

Craved by Pelias

beyond all reason.

He believes it will grant

him his heart's desire.

Your charity will not

be forgotten.

>> Let me lead

the next voyage, Father.

If they see you've entrusted

your own son...

>> It will make no difference.

Unfortunately the populace

have yet to learn the great

benefits the Fleece will

bestow upon them.

What is it?

>> An omen, sire...

of the greatest import.

I see a young man.

There is vengeance in his heart.

He threatens your throne.

>> What?

>> Another rebel?

>> No.

>> Who, then?

>> I don't know, Majesty.

>> What does he look like?

>> I only know that he wears

one sandal.

I believe he has the protection

of the gods.

>> Find him.

>> What do you see?

>> He's here, Majesty,

in Ioclus.

>> Is this him?

>> I believe so, sire.

>> What brings you

to Ioclus, boy?

>> I've come to find my mother.

>> Who is your mother?

>> Polymele.

>> Bring her.

How should we know

you're not an imposter?

>> I have this amulet

given to me by my mother.

>> Do you know what we do

with fraudsters?

>> I'm not the fraud.

>> You summoned me?

>> Oh, my dear.

We have a young man

who claims to be your son.

Take a good look at him.

So?

Do you know him or not,

my dear?

>> I do not.

>> And the trinket?

The emblem of your

most loved Hera.

>> I've never seen it before.

>> Very well.

Take him down.

We will execute him tomorrow.

>> No!

>> Oh, has something jogged

your memory, my dear?

So how do you find

your mother, boy?

Is she as you remembered her?

Or even more lovely?

Did you not know

to come back here

was certain death?

Take him.

>> My lord, I beg you.

Spare him.

Give me one good reason.

Because I will find you

the Golden Fleece.

>> What?

Leave us.

>> My lord.

>> Get out!

Out!

What do you know

of the Fleece?

>> I can find it.

Because I have protection

of the gods.

>> Tell me,

if you bring the Fleece to me,

what do you expect in return?

>> Nothing more than

my birthright.

>> Well, my dear nephew,

here is my rather generous

offer.

If you should bring the Fleece

back,

I will restore you to prince

and your right to succession

upon my death.

>> Father, I must protest.

>> I will even give you

a boat.

You'll have to find a crew.

Not easy,

but you'll have a marvelous

incentive,

because if you're not back

in six months...

your mother's life

will be forfeit.

Clean, simple,

and not open to negotiation.

Your mother for the Fleece.

>> I've brought you something.

>> Thank you.

>> Jason.

When you sail from here,

do not return.

Promise me you will not return.

>> I've no choice.

>> Even if you return with

the Fleece,

Pelias will kill you.

The Fleece is his obsession.

He believes it will grant

him his heart's desire.

>> And what is that?

>> Immortality.

Eternal release from his doom

so he may reign forever.

He will not let you live.

>> You know your husband well.

>> I've had to learn his ways.

For my sake and for yours.

Let it not have been in vain.

>> The finest, fastest ship

ever built.

And the most expensive.

Is she not, Master Argos?

>> That she is, Majesty,

but she is the best

I've ever designed.

Every joint is perfect.

Every nail true.

>> All we need now

is a crew that is worthy of her.

>> What is she called?

>> The Pelias.

It seemed natural,

although I am not sure

now that it provided

sufficient inspiration.

>> Your Majesty,

might I suggest the Great Wake

in homage to her speed?

>> Or maybe the Argo

in homage to the man

who built her.

>> Oh, I like that.

>> I don't know what to say.

>> The least we can do.

I mean, considering

you will be sailing with her.

>> Me, sir?

>> You, sir.

>> Of course, sir.

>> O goddess Hera,

hear my prayer.

Protect my darling son Jason.

Guide him to safety.

Protect him from his youth.

>> Zeus, my lord.

What has kept you from my bed?

>> Affairs of mortals,

Queen Hera.

>> Affairs with mortals,

I think you mean.

>> And what is the nature

of your complaint today?

>> I know you have been

chasing mortal women.

>> Shh.

>> I will be heard.

Do you think I'm blind?

You humiliate a goddess

when you consort with mortals.

>> Your duty as my queen

is to obey.

If not, descend

and stain the earth

with your spite.

>> ( thunder crashes )

>> Don't tempt me.

>> Ahem.

I seek men who know the sea.

But only the best men

who are willing

to face its dangers

and be prepared to risk all

in the greatest quest of all.

For the Golden Fleece.

If chosen,

I promise you honor and glory.

>> ( men laugh )

>> I'll take him outside

and finish him off.

>> Who are you?

Why did you hit me?

>> Fella in there had a knife.

He'd have used it.

>> Why?

>> Mention of the Fleece.

Not wise in sailors' company.

>> But I need to find a crew.

>> I'll come.

I could pull an oar.

I mean, I'm no sailor,

but...

>> That's it.

>> But these are farmers,

peasants, they're no use to us.

>> ( laughing )

>> ( bull bellows )

>> ( cheering )

>> Who is that man?

>> Laertes, a shepherd.

>> What do you think?

>> Sir, I understand the need

for a crew, but...

>> So, you like danger?

>> I said hit it on the side,

not here.

>> You said in the middle.

>> No, I said hit it here.

>> Where?

>> Here.

>> This looks like hard work.

>> Have you ever been to sea?

>> No.

>> You?

>> Where?

>> Sea.

>> When?

>> Yes.

>> How?

>> By boat.

>> Oh.

No. Never.

>> A soak, a shepherd,

and two quarrymen

who've never rigged a sail,

tied a knot, or held an oar.

>> They have heart.

There must be more like them.

>> I hope not.

The sea is pitiless.

Can only be conquered by men

of skill and experience.

Without that, you invite death.

I'll not sail with such a crew.

>> You've been ordered

by Pelias on pain of death.

>> Then at least my death

shall be quick.

All right, rest.

>> Hello, young man.

How are those

strong, young legs?

Don't you remember me?

You helped me across the river.

>> Of course.

>> I told you your charity

would be rewarded.

Go to Idas the mapmaker.

He'll show you the way

to the Golden Fleece.

>> Thank you.

>> What is this

slim-hipped youth to you?

A toy?

Do you play with him

to spite Pelias?

Why?!

Because you are jealous.

Because he worships Poseidon

instead of you.

>> Is that what you think,

great Zeus?

That my affection

is provoked by jealousy?

Rather than his

beautiful youth?

Rather than his thighs

as smooth and strong

as polished olive wood?

>> Enough!

>> Rather than his lips,

as sweet as ambrosia?

>> Hear me,

smooth-faced, insolent baby,

whatever trials

may lie ahead...

I will make them

10,000 times

more terrible!

>> ( thunder crashing )

>> ( music playing )

>> Oh, don't stop.

Play on, please.

>> There's a price.

A place on your ship.

>> What do you know of the sea?

>> Nothing.

>> To face the sea without

knowledge or skill

brings only death.

>> Of death I am knowledgeable.

Danger I do not fear.

And I can give you music.

Music that will tame

wild beasts,

lift men's hearts to heaven,

and cause the lark

to sing at night.

>> What is your name?

>> Orpheus.

>> What can I do for you?

>> I'm looking for a map.

>> I have many maps.

>> I'm looking for a map

that will lead me to

the Golden Fleece.

>> If such a map existed,

it would have a great price.

>> ( thunder crashes )

>> That's all I have.

>> Keep it.

You will have more use

for it than I.

Come in.

What do you know of the stars?

>> I've learned something

of them.

I've never seen a map

like this before.

>> There is no map like it.

Read it well

and it will take you

to the end of the world.

>> Here's Sagittarius.

And Cygnus.

And Delphinus.

This is a chart.

A chart through the stars.

>> No map can lead you

to the Fleece.

It lies in an unknown sea.

But follow this chart

and it will take you to

Tabletop Island.

There you will find

the prophet Phineas.

It is said he knows

the secret of the Fleece.

>> How is it possible

to make such a map?

>> With the help of my son

and apprentice Zetes.

The gods have given him eyes

10 times sharper than an eagle.

>> And you can see all the way

to the end of the world?

>> Only to the heavens.

To the great forms

of the constellations.

>> I could use someone

with such eyes on my crew.

>> That may well be,

but Zetes has work to do here.

Which he should be doing now.

May the gods speed your way.

>> Thank you for your gift.

>> Stop!

Somebody stop him!

Stop!

>> Is this what

you're looking for?

>> ( grunts )

>> Jason: The gods be thanked.

And you, sir.

>> My pleasure.

What is that?

>> A map.

>> Where does it lead you?

>> Phineas' island.

And from there to

the Golden Fleece.

>> So you're the young captain.

Men say you're a fool.

>> Only to hide their fear

and cowardice.

Do you share their opinion?

>> Do you know with whom

you speak?

Follow me.

>> Get more men, Canthus,

we'll dig her out.

>> ( laughing )

>> ( grunting )

>> ( shouting )

>> Who are you?

>> I am Hercules.

This boat is going to

find the Golden Fleece,

and I'm going with it.

Are you heroes

or are you cowards?

>> I'll go.

>> And I.

>> Remember me, sir?

>> The little thief.

>> Reformed thief, sir.

>> Hercules: Since when?

>> Since this morning, sir.

Nice little piece, sir.

>> My amulet.

>> A gesture of goodwill

on my part, sir.

For I would like

to come with you, sir.

>> Why?

>> To improve myself, sir.

To make amends.

Give me a chance,

will you, sir?

>> What, so you can steal

whatever you can, thief?

>> Well, who better to snatch

the Fleece than a thief?

>> Some wine, Mopsus?

A drink to our journey.

>> No, sir.

I've vowed never

to drink again.

>> So what do you reckon

to this lad Jason?

>> He talks well.

We'll see how he sails.

>> My last labor by far

was the most difficult.

I had to pick the golden apples

of Hesperides.

Now Atlas, my friend,

was the only Titan

tall enough to reach them.

So I held the weight

of the heavens in his stead.

>> To the end of the world?

>> What does your father say?

>> I haven't told him.

>> A musician?

>> Yes.

>> There you are,

musician.

Oar in the water.

>> Jason!

>> What are you doing here?

>> I'm coming with you.

>> You can't.

>> Oh, really?

>> Not a woman.

>> ( beating )

>> Shore scum.

Look at them.

I'll give us 10 days.

>> Keep in time.

Zetes. Follow the drum.

Watch the men in front of you.

>> Hey!

Come out.

>> Come here!

Come here!

>> Hey. Kill him.

>> What's this little bastard

doing on board?

>> Let's throw him overboard.

>> Why?

>> He's the king's son.

We hate him.

>> We do?

>> Yes.

>> We could nail him

to the mast and let the gulls

peck his eyes out.

>> Quiet.

Echion, put that away.

Put it away now.

>> Do as he says.

>> There will be no

bloodshed on board.

>> Watch that boy, sir.

He's as slippery as a snake.

>> He's my brother.

Everyone back to your oars.

>> Acastus: I do not blame

them for hating me.

It is my father's reputation.

It is a curse for me.

A curse I wish to undo.

If I sail with you,

I will rid myself of it.

>> How's that?

>> If we have the Fleece,

we may rid Ioclus of a tyrant.

A monster.

If you have the Fleece,

you can destroy him.

>> If I have the Fleece,

I'm bound to give it

to your father.

Our mother's life is forfeit

if I do not.

>> Well, that is why I'm here.

To help our mother.

For, Jason, through this

bargain, I have learned

what my father really is.

>> A ship.

A lone ship.

>> Why?

What does it mean?

Where is this ship?

>> Still distant.

In a sea beyond our knowledge.

Beyond our reach.

>> Why do you smile?

Is it a good omen?

Is it a bad omen?

>> This youth,

he has a pleasant face.

>> Oh, you don't put cheese

before the bread.

What are you doing?

Salt is good.

>> ( men chatting )

>> See yourself in the air.

Keep that picture in your mind.

Your legs are springs,

your arms wings.

>> ( men laugh )

>> The eye of the Bull

above us.

We'll soon leave charted waters.

Does that not fill you

with wonder?

>> Yes.

>> What do you see?

>> Nothing.

It's as if the gods have put

a blind before our eyes.

>> Argos, have we steered

a straight course?

>> To the best of my ability

without a landmark or the sun

to guide us.

>> Rocks!

Steer left! Steer left!

>> Land!

>> ( wood creaks )

>> Hercules, Orpheus,

Echion, come with me.

The rest of you stay here.

>> There should be

no island here.

>> ( men screaming )

>> To your oars!

>> Jason, come on!

>> To your oars!

>> Poseidon,

god of the sea.

>> Where's Jason?

>> Jason!

Jason!

Jason!

>> ( roars )

>> Hold on, Echion.

Echion, hold on.

>> ( screaming )

>> Jason!

>> Where's Jason?

Stop!

We must search for Jason.

>> ( screaming )

>> Get up!

>> ( screaming )

>> Enough!

>> ( laughing )

>> Enough.

>> Brother Poseidon,

tsk, tsk, tsk.

Our apologies.

>> Acastus!

>> Jason.

>> ( coughing )

>> The others?

>> Mopsus: Echion is lost.

So is Hercules, sir.

>> It's Hercules!

>> What have you done to him?

>> You demean yourself.

This boy would sooner sleep

with a whore

than honor you.

>> Judge him not

by your own base principles.

>> Watch.

>> Argos: The mast has spring.

Forward strake plankings

are weeping in the waterline,

which means the bilge

will be rising.

That's not all.

The yardarm's splintering.

>> And, sir,

we've lost the map.

>> To your oars!

>> ( men shouting )

>> Keep it steady!

>> Hard to row!

>> ( men muttering )

>> It's bad.

It's very bad.

She's hurt, Jason.

>> We'll find timber.

We'll make repairs.

>> We haven't got the tools.

>> What about a hunting party?

Nothing like fresh roast

venison to cheer the spirit.

>> Soldiers.

Soldiers!

Form a phalanx!

Come on!

>> Wait.

Zetes.

All women?

>> All women.

>> Welcome to Lemnos.

>> Majesty, Prince Jason.

Our Queen Hypsipyle.

>> Welcome.

I understand you require

some materials of us.

>> Only a few things.

Some timber,

sailing cloth.

>> Of course.

You are welcome

to these things.

>> My gratitude, Majesty.

>> This is when a garden

looks best, don't you agree?

A garden

should be a little wild.

It should be fertile.

You should feel the force

of creation in it.

We will drink wine

pressed from my own grape.

Young and sharp.

Mmm.

You can feel the earth in it.

Taste its richness.

>> For my fourth labor,

I had to hunt

the Erymanthian boar.

Imagine a boar

that's huge, hairy,

and full of hate.

>> He is Pollux.

>> He is Castor.

>> We are simple men.

He is a quarryman.

I am a stonemason.

>> Stonemason?

>> So, where are all the men?

>> Fighting.

>> Oh, yeah?

Who?

>> It's been so long,

I have forgotten.

Please.

>> Where's Jason?

>> Why aren't you

with the others?

The other men,

they all seem to have

lost their senses.

But you...

>> I have an advantage.

My senses are dulled.

>> Why?

>> I had a love.

Eurydice.

Whose laughter

was soft as rain

and eyes were bright

as the sky.

I lost her

to death.

To lose her was to lose

a universe.

If the Fleece can grant a man

his heart's desire,

it may give me another chance.

But perhaps to love

what cannot be yours

is a wound that only death

may heal.

>> ( wings flapping )

>> I finished, Argos.

>> ( quietly ) Excellent.

Excellent.

>> Let us see what

the future holds.

>> What does it say?

>> That your destiny

is to be king.

What is this?

>> It's nothing.

>> Nothing?

Did he say nothing?

Hmm.

It appears you are quite

forgotten.

>> O most adored goddess,

hear us

and accept

the coming sacrifice.

The sacrifice of men.

>> Tonight we feast.

Tonight we rejoice.

For it is my wish

that every man of the Argo

take a wife from my people.

>> ( men laugh )

>> I will make you

princes of this island.

And your leader king.

>> ( cheering )

>> Let us go to the temple

this very evening

and celebrate the promise

of eternal bliss.

>> Atalanta: Jason.

Jason.

It's a trap.

They're going to kill you.

I've been to their temple.

I know what they're planning.

A sacrifice of men.

>> ( men laughing )

>> Fools.

Don't you see?

The men aren't away.

They're dead.

Look, this is their armor.

>> ( laughs )

Absurd.

>> Why are you saying these

ridiculous things?

>> She loves you.

She loves you and wants to

make you her own.

Do not let her envy

corrupt our love.

Remove her.

>> Jason!

>> No, wait.

Wait.

This is not the purpose

of our voyage.

>> What can you find on this

voyage that you cannot

find here?

I promise you

infinite happiness.

>> Perhaps we should

go back to the boat.

>> ( grumbling )

>> Run!

>> ( women screaming )

>> What are your orders, sir?

>> You decide.

>> I'm not the captain.

>> The boat is near sinking.

We're lost.

We have no food,

water.

I don't know what to do.

>> There are two dozen men here

who trusted you.

They'll trust you again

if you show some mettle.

So forget your own troubles

and remember you're the son

of a king

and damn well do your duty.

>> Hera.

I ask you,

please,

show me a sign.

Anything.

>> He comes with purpose

in his heart.

It is the Fleece

that draws him.

>> The Fleece?

The Fleece?

>> ( man shouting )

>> You fight like a woman,

General.

>> ( yells )

>> Where's your thirst

for battle?

Perhaps we should relieve him

of his command.

>> Father.

I must speak with you urgently.

It concerns our security.

>> Later.

>> It concerns the Fleece.

>> Where is this young man

with the pleasant face?

>> Closer than any

have been before.

>> Set your course west

toward the unknown sea.

>> I will find him for you,

Father.

And I will destroy him.

>> ( drum beating )

>> Wild boar

in honey sauce.

>> With onions.

>> Little salt,

little tarragon.

>> Perhaps fried onion.

>> My god.

>> Castor.

>> What?

>> I am hungry.

>> Me, too.

It's you

and these onions.

>> Everybody row.

If you don't row, we die.

>> I wouldn't mind rowing

if we actually knew

where we was going.

>> It's what we chose.

We're none of us prisoners.

>> Even prisoners get fed.

Begging your pardon, sir.

But where are we now?

>> We are east of Lemnos.

>> Yeah, but where

is that, then?

>> We seek Phineas

on the Tabletop Island.

>> Forgive me for asking, sir,

but how should we find

this island, seeing as we've

got no map?

>> Your place is to row,

not to question.

>> I don't mind rowing

if it's going somewhere.

>> Yeah.

>> Do we know where

we're going, sir?

>> Phanus: This is mad.

We should turn back.

>> Yeah, before we all

starve to death.

>> Zetes.

>> Sir?

>> I need to see the stars.

I remember.

From the map.

The island lies just under

that place in the heavens

where the dog lies left

of the archer.

You show me that and I shall

have is there by nightfall.

If not, we shall turn back.

>> But, sir,

it is daylight.

How shall I see the heavens?

>> Have faith in your strength.

>> Yes!

Yes, I see them!

I do!

>> Draw them for me.

Draw what you see.

This way.

Argonauts, get to your oars.

We sail this way to land.

I'm sure of it.

>> To your oars.

To your oars.

>> Land! I see land!

>> ( cheering )

>> An island,

flat like a table top.

>> Well done, young master.

>> We will split up.

Search for Phineas in

different directions.

>> Food is what we need.

Not prophets.

>> ( screaming )

>> ( growls )

>> Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

>> ( screeches )

>> ( screams )

>> ( crunches )

>> Sir! Sir!

Demons! Demons!

Demons like-- like--

>> We saw the food, sir,

in the temple.

>> Slow down. One at a time.

Phanus?

>> Sir, there's a temple

up there. There's food in it.

But there's these creatures.

They ate Butes and Tiphys.

>> We must leave this place.

>> We cannot leave.

We must find Phineas.

>> Indeed.

You have found him,

Jason of Ioclus.

I am Phineas.

>> How do you know who I am?

>> I am a soothsayer.

My gift is great.

I know what you're seeking,

young man.

>> Then you can help us?

>> I've been 40 years

on this island.

Exiled by the gods.

In their jealousy of my gift,

they ripped out my eyes.

And for good measure,

they placed me here

to be tormented by hunger

and Harpies.

>> Harpies?

>> Those monsters.

They are part of my torment.

The other part is hunger.

Perpetual hunger.

A table groaning with food

every day.

But to touch it

is death.

>> Can you show us the way

to the Golden Fleece?

>> I will point you

in the right direction

for the price of a small favor.

>> ( growls )

>> ( screeches )

>> ( screeches )

>> ( groans )

>> ( roars )

>> The Fleece

lies in Colchis.

The kingdom of Aertes.

>> Jason: What do you

know of him?

>> A ruthless tyrant

who guards the Fleece

jealously.

His daughter Medea

is a sorceress

whose powers protect him.

She is the guardian

of the Fleece.

>> How do we find Colchis?

>> Young man,

you must enter

the Eastern Ocean.

And there is but one way.

Through the dark rocks,

the doom of all that have

gone before you.

>> Men in the water!

>> The boat is sunk.

The crew drowned.

I see bodies

crushed,

sucked down.

>> Is your brother dead?

>> No.

He lives.

He is saved.

He is saved by one

who is loved by the gods.

It is he

who desires the Fleece.

>> ( coughs )

The rocks.

( coughs )

The rocks sank my ship.

We were sailing between them

and they came together.

Crushed my ship.

Crushed my ship

as I stood on the bow

without warning.

Nobody told me.

How was I to know?

>> I'm Jason,

Prince of Ioclus.

>> Aspyrtes, Colchis.

>> Colchis?

We're headed to Colchis.

>> You are?

Then I may be able to help you.

My father's the ruler

of Colchis.

And I believe he will make you

very welcome.

First, however,

we must find a route

that will convey us

safely there.

>> Do you know of one?

>> No.

But I do know that to sail

between these rocks

is certain death.

>> Orpheus.

We need your dove.

>> Why?

Fly true, little friend.

May the gods guide you.

>> Row!

>> Hard to row!

Hard to row!

>> This is death! Death!

>> A great blackness.

I see nothing.

>> And the ship?

>> There is no ship.

It is gone.

I see only wreckage.

Darkness.

The ship is lost.

>> Lost?

>> Indeed.

>> Murderer.

Murderer!
