When they arrived at Seriphus, they discover that Polydectes had never really married, and Danae (Perseus’ mother) was forced to be his servant. Perseus was furious and with the head of Medusa, Polydectes became a stone statue . Perseus and Andromeda lived happily for many years and their descendants became great kings, but the greatest of these was Heracles. Later Perseus was killed by Dionysus. Perseus and Andromeda were put up in the sky as constellations.

Theseus

Theseus was Athens's great hero. While having all the qualities of a traditional hero, such as strength and courage, he was also intelligent and wise. His early adventures benefited the city and region. He was a successful king consolidating Athens position and the democracy. He gained a reputation for helping the poor and oppressed. After being king, he continued going to adventures, and met Heracles. In middle age his wisdom abandoned him. He began going on foolish adventures and making bad decisions. Ultimately, he died in exile from Athens's.

Generations passed and during the Persian wars Athenian solders saw the ghost of Theseus saying that he was responsible for their victories. The Athenian general found Theseus's bones and returned them to Athens.

Meleager

While still young he came to be regarded as second only to Heracles in his abilities. He married Cleopatra and had a daughter Polydora. He was killed by the Erinnyes to revenge his killing of blood relatives in a war.

Bellerophon

Bellerophon was a hero of Greek mythology. He was "the greatest hero and slayer of monsters, alongside of Cadmus and Perseus, before the days of Heracles", whose greatest feat was killing the Chimera, a monster that Homer depicted with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail: "her breath came out in terrible blasts of burning flame." 

After that fightings, it appeared that Bellerophon would live happily ever. His glorious deeds were widely sung. He was happily married. Philonoe bore him two sons, Isander and Hippolochus, and two daughters, Laodameia and Deidameia. As a king his subjects loved and honored him.

Heracles

Heracles is best known as the strongest of all mortals. Stronger then many gods. So strong he was the deciding factor in allowing the Olympian Gods to win their battle with the giants. He was the last mortal son of Zeus. He is the only man born of mortal woman to become a god upon his death.

The view of Heracles shifted considerable over time. The early view focused on how badly he managed despite his obvious gifts. As time passed the focus shifted to his virtues. The Romans valued him highly as he best fit their idea of a hero. He eventually had a fair sized cult that worshiped him as a god.  His roman name was Hercules.
