Alcmene, fearing she will lose her son, sends Hercules to Chiron's academy. Once there he meets up with Iolaus, a pain in the neck who he knew from his own village; Jason, the Crowned Prince of Corinth; and the female cadet Yvenna. Shortly after their introduction, the friends set sail with some fellow cadets on a mission. They must search for the Golden Fleece in order to save Jason's father, who is on his deathbed. Unbeknownst to the cadets is that Ares and Discord are the ones who put him there.
