And he's able to harness it. the fire-breathing bulls, and so the teeth, which go back to Cadmus, way back in Cadmus. Whole other story. The movie does a very clever thing. It has him kill the dragon, which doesn't happen in Apollonius, and then use those dragon's teeth to sew them. And of course, that's when these wonderful skeleton warriors pop up out of the ground.

But in most versions, most of the ancient versions, he has to do the plowing of the teeth first, and then Aeetes says he'll give him the fleece. But Aeetes does not give him the fleece, so he's got to get it by another method. Now you'd expect him to be a brave soldier, or rather not soldier, but warrior, and use his sword to kill the dragon and everything.

The snake, Drakon, means the same thing. And it's described as being as big as the Argo. So this is not your ordinary snake or dragon. It's a snake as big as the Argo ship. What he does is Medea just uses a charm to put it to sleep, which is a little bit anticlimactic. And again, in the film, they make it a hydra and he stabs the hydra and kills it that way.

He gets the fleece and now he's going to go home. So that happened pretty quickly, actually. A lot of it is the traveling there. And then they get there and it's slightly anticlimactic, except a lot of it's in Medea's head, her torturous inner debate about what she should do. And that's, of course, what makes it so fascinating and her so fascinating.

They've got a long way to get back. And you're exactly right. It's not the thing they get. It's not the fleece, the MacGuffin, the magic potion, the sword, whatever, the princess. It's the journey that's important and what the hero learns and who he meets and who he fights and who he falls in love with and who he loses and who he mourns that's important.

And again, he'll come back to the he comes back to the same place at the end. And again, if you look at that wonderful map of his journey, he's going all over the place, including many across land. And so they're now they're warned by an oracle. Don't go back the way you came. So they decide to go by a different route. So they sail up the Danube.

They go up the Danube all the way across, whatever those are called, the Balkans or whatever, to the sea on the right of Italy, which is, I believe, called the Adriatic Sea.
