==Synopsis==
Jason's father, Aeson, is the king of Iolcos until he is killed by his half brother Pelias, a son of Poseidon. Jason's mother Alcimede sends him to Chiron. 20 years later, Jason hears of the Golden Fleece that can be used to kill Pelias.
Jason is told that after Aria: Origin, the fleece is now guarded by a dragon. For his voyage, Jason recruits a band of heroes that he calls the Argonauts. Among them is Hercules. Hercules was supposed to only have ten Labours but because he had helped defeating the Hydra, Mares of Diomedes and the Amazons and used to river to clean the Augean Stables, giving him four more.
Because he then had Atlas help with getting an apples from the gardens, he still had four Labours left. However, capturing Cerberus ended up covering two Labours as Eurystheus was frightened enough to make returning it to the Underworld the thirteen Labour, leaving him only two.
The fourteenth Labour was to join in the quest for the Golden Fleece. The other Argonauts are Medea, Orpheus, Castor, Pollux, Atalanda, Aria, Hadius, Artema and Iolaus. They are attacked by a crew lead by Hippolyta, who survived the death of the Amazons and seeks revenge.
Hippolyta is for real. Later the Argonauts encounter Atlanteans sent by Poseidon. One Argonaut Hylas is killed during the attack. Later they are attacked by Harpies. Finally, the Argonauts reach Colchis where the fleece is now located.
Colchis is ruled by Medea's father Aeetes. The Argonauts kill the dragon and take the fleece. Aeetes tries to stop them. During the resulting battle, Medea kills her brother Apsyrtus while Jason kills Aeetes. On their way back, the Argonauts encounter SIrens.
Having been warned of Sirens by Chiron, Jason has Orpheus play a song to drown out the SIrens'. They then encounter Talos in Crete. Jason tries to use the golden fleece but it turns out it has no powers and the quest was for nothing.
Medea reveals herself to be a witch and uses her magic to defeat Talos. They return to Thessaly. Jason fights Pelias without the fleece and kills him. Pelias' son Acastus becomes king and threatens to kill Jason. The Argonauts flee Iolcos.
