That's... familiar, actually. The concept. I understand it. [And he does, for how many times has a story shifted and changed the hero as a result? The Throne has an odd sense of humor and summoning can always change if one desired class is already taken.
What may surprise Elizabeth is how much he replies to her when she begins saying the myths.]
Hercules, a divine hero in Greek mythology. Son of Zeus, half-brother of Perseus. He was born with incredible strength and used his wits in situations where strength would not suffice alone. In his first marriage he was cursed by Hera into madness and murdered his children, and sought penance through performing trials by his enemy Eurystheus for ten years. They later became known as The Twelve Labors of Hercules. He died to being poisoned by the blood of the Hydra that remained on a bloodstained tunic that was given to him by his wife.
Jason, leader of the Argonauts and the seeker of the Golden Fleece. Son of Aeson, and husband to Medea. He rode upon the ship the Argo and ventured with his group across the seas and many lands before he was tasked with three obstacles to overcome- to plow a field with the Khalkotauroi, to sow dragon's teeth into the field and kill the warriors that came from there, and to overcome the sleepless dragon that guarded the fleece. He achieved these with the help of Medea, and returned to give Pelias the fleece. He later died alone due to his treachery and rebuking of Medea.
[He pauses, curious. That's the most he's spoken since arriving.] Do either of these sound similar to what you know?
