With the help of his mentor, Chiron the centaur, Jason sets out to get the golden fleece, the enchanted wool of a winged ram, guarded by a dragon. He seeks the guidance of the goddess Athena, who inspires a shipbuilder named Argos to construct the mighty ship, Argo. Jason gathers an extraordinary crew, including Hercules, and encounters various obstacles on his voyage, such as trickery by wood nymphs and encounters with kings. Jason ultimately overcomes these challenges and reaches the island of Colcus where the golden fleece is kept.
