If you ask any skilled climber- not just your typical Joe, who climbs the heights and hills outside his backyard, but the true risk-takers who try to master the highest mountains- about his adventures I bet he’ll say one thing: The best part of climbing a mountain is the rush of adrenaline and the overwhelming feeling of victory that washes over you once you have conquered that obstacle.

    Heracles, also known as Hercules in Roman mythology, is one of the most famous heroes in Greek mythology. He is renowned for his strength and courage, and his hero journey is a classic example of the hero's journey archetype. Stephan Fry's version of the myth provides a unique perspective on Heracles' journey, which can be divided into three parts: departure, initiation, and return. The departure stage of Heracles' journey is marked by his exile from Thebes, the city where he was born. As Fry explains, this was the result of a tragic mistake he made, killing his own wife and children in a fit of madness.

    11:55 pm In the mess his wristwatch was the only semblance of order, the only way he could keep track of the time - the hours and minutes that passed from journey to journey, the knowledge of days, weeks or months now a relic he could only yearn to be blessed with. He didn't know how long he had been a vagrant, and right now it no longer mattered to him; however long it was it had grown amorphous and into a nagging reminder of his transient lifestyle, and now he found it all but inconsequential.
