After successfully conquering the Minotaur and his sons, and rescuing Theseus from the Labyrinth, The Pirate returns to Argos, who is faithfully attempting to keep the Labyrinth locked up tight, sealing it from the outside world with every ounce of strength he possesses.
           Argos can’t be expected to hold the door shut for eternity, but he is certain he has an idea for the ultimate solution to keep all the horrors locked up tight behind the door.
           On the isle of Achaea lives a fierce Hydra, chained in a cave at the very top of a hill. The residents of Achaea have failed to find the secret to conquer the Hydra, and thus rely on the chain to keep it from wreaking havoc on the land.
           The Hydra’s chain is the only shackle in existence heavy enough to properly seal the Labyrinth, so The Pirate must find the secret to defeating the Hydra, so Argos can do his duty … but not be expected to hold the door forever.
           Argos will need to accompany The Pirate to The Hydra Cave, as he is the only person that can break the chain from the Hydra after its defeat. But before heading to Achaea, The Pirate will need to seek the secrets to defeating the Hydra from the Oracle on the isle of Delphos.
           The Oracle is familiar with the Hydra and can provide the secret to its defeat. The Hydra is many-headed, consisting of heads of Scarlet, Amethyst, and Cobal. The main head, the one that is the key to victory, is the Ebon head. To defeat the Hydra, the Pirate must cut down the Ebon head. Only then will the Hydra be defeated. Even after its demise, it may only lie dormant for a small time before its rebirth. It’s suggested The Pirate be hasty when seeking to remove its shackle.
           The chain cannot simply be removed from the Hydra, however, after its defeat. First the chain must be burned by a Sacred Flame of Golden Apollo. The Sacred Flame can be acquired from doing different tasks for High Priest Chryses in Nova Aquila.
          With the Sacred Flame in hand and the knowledge of how to defeat the Hydra, The Pirate is sent forth on their adventure to Achaea.
          The Pirate travels through dangerous terrain, running into incidental fights and characters along the way, until they arrive at the tip top of Achaea and the eerie entrance to the Hydra Cave.
          Once in the cave, The Pirate is faced with a challenging battle against the fearsome Hydra. The Hydra grows many heads throughout the battle, and at specific times the cowardly Ebon head hides under the water and pops back up, adding to the challenge.
          Upon the Hydra’s defeat, Argos secures the Hydra’s chain, relieved he can now secure the Labyrinth for good and will no longer have to hold the door closed himself for eternity.
