Description:

As Herc ponders an offer from Zeus to give up his mortality and become a full god, he recalls childhood experiences with godliness.

After Alcmene dies, Zeus asks Hercules to give up mortality and join him ruling the gods of Olympus.

Zeus' proposal for Hercules to join him as a god on Mount Olympus brings up memories of the warrior's first brush with divine immortality.

After the death of Alcmene, Zeus asks Hercules to give up his mortality and join him in ruling the gods of Olympus.
