Episode 9: The Girdle The legend of Heracles' vengeance against Hera spread across Greece over a year as he headed to Themiscyra, island of the Amazons. Eurystheus wanted a gift for his daughter so he ordered Heracles to retrieve the Belt of Hippolyta, a girdle gifted to the queen of the Amazons by her father, Ares. Heracles met Queen Hippolyta who was already enamoured by his strength and his willpower. She was immediately willing to give him her girdle but offered him something greater. Hippolyta showed Heracles legends on vases, explaining the realm of Hades where his family lie in rest. Hippolyta revealed that just as Titans tried to kill Primordials and Gods tried to kill Titans, it was impossible for a man to kill a God. Heracles would have to become a God to kill Hera. As the two plotted against the queen of the gods, Hera cast a curse on the nation of the Amazons spreading madness to the warrior women. Heracles and Hippolyta attempted to escape Themiscyra together but as his boat left the shore Hippolyta knew her place was with her sisters. As Heracles sailed back to Tiryns, he watched as Hera stabbed Hippolyta through her heart. The so-called protector of women was just as ruthless as Heracles.
