**“The Court of King Aietes”** In the ancient kingdom of Colchis, Jason stands before the powerful King Aietes and the enigmatic sorceress Medea, in a throne room filled with intrigue and destiny.

**“Eyes of Destiny”** In a moment heavy with fate, Jason, King Aietes, and Medea lock gazes — warriors, kings, and sorceresses bound by ambition, magic, and betrayal.

At Colchis, Aietes’ Kingdom on the west coast of the Black Sea, Jason came before Aietes and his court, which included his beautiful daughter, MEDEA, high Priestess of Hecata/Ereshkigal.

**“The Judgment of King Aietes”** Surrounded by golden statues and symbols of divine authority, King Aietes sits in judgment of Jason. At his side, Medea, robed in dark splendor, holds a staff of power, as courtiers and guards witness the fateful meeting that will decide Jason’s quest for the Golden Fleece.

**“Jason Before the King of Colchis”** In the golden halls of Colchis, Jason meets the ruler who will set him impossible tasks, while a sorceress watches in silence.

**“Faces of Fate in Colchis”** In the golden halls of Colchis, destiny reveals itself through the faces of Jason, determined and bold; King Aietes, stern and powerful; Medea, torn between duty and passion; and the ethereal presence of Ereshkigal, silent and omnipotent.

The goddess Hera, who had orchestrated the events so Medea could help Jason, had convinced Inanna/Aphrodite to have her son, Cupid, make Medea fall in love with Jason.

**“The Divine Plot”** In the heavens, Hera and Inanna conspire to weave destiny, sending Cupid to spark a love that will change the fate of heroes and gods.

**“The Arrow of Love”** Under the watchful eyes of Hera and Inanna, Cupid’s arrow kindles Medea’s fated passion.

King Aietes said, Before I give you the Fleece, you must plow a field with fire-breathing bulls and sow dragon’s teeth, from which warriors will emerge and challenge you.

**“The Trial of the Fleece”** King Aietes demands that Jason plow a field with fire-breathing bulls and sow dragon’s teeth, from which deadly warriors will rise to challenge him.

**“Eyes on the Impossible”** Jason faces the impossible task with unwavering resolve as King Aietes seals his fate with a deadly challenge, visions of fire-breathing bulls and ghostly warriors flickering in his determined gaze.

**“Vision of the Impossible”** In the hall of Colchis, Jason is engulfed in a swirling vision of fire-breathing bulls and warriors born from dragon’s teeth, as destiny challenges him with an almost insurmountable trial.

I accept your challenge, mighty King,” said Jason, but inside, he felt a mix of dread and hopelessness. Had he agreed to die trying to complete impossible tasks? Jason hid his doubts from Aietes and took the oath. It was his last hope to avoid certain death.

**“Trial by Fire and Teeth”** Jason battles the fire-breathing bulls and dragon-born warriors, facing the deadly challenge set by King Aietes with unyielding bravery on the scorched Field of Ares.

Medea told her ladies-in-waiting, her most immediate family members, that she would kill Jason with what he would think was a protective coat of clear ointment, but that this balm was a slow-acting poison that would kill him as he fought the bulls.

**“Medea’s Deception”** To protect Jason and secure her secret, Medea lies to her closest attendants, claiming her magical ointment is a deadly poison.

The “poison” part of what she told them was a lie; the potion Hera had given Medea for Jason was intended to protect, not kill him. Medea’s lie reassured her ladies, and they obeyed her request to see Jason without them.

**“Whispers of Betrayal and Trust”** In the flickering lamplight, truth and lies dance in Medea’s eyes as she convinces her loyal attendants to leave her alone with destiny.

Her attendants reassured, Medea, unattended, met Jason privately. She said, The Gods want me to help you, though my family will hate me for it. But I’ll only help if you vow to marry and never leave me. He took the vow to survive and relished the thought of mating with her.

**“The Secret Pact”** In the moonlit gardens of Colchis, Medea entrusts Jason with the true potion of protection, sealing their fates in secret.

**“The Vow of Fate”** Alone under the moonlight, Medea demands Jason swear to marry and never abandon her before she dares betray her family to help him.

She told him, Cover your entire body with this ointment. Hera said to give it to you. She made it with the blood of the Titan Prometheus [aka Enki] when he was trapped on a rock in the Caucasus, where an awful bird pecked at his liver. Covered with this balm, you’ll be safe as you do what the King said before you can take the Fleece.

**“Eyes of Promise and Desire”** Torn between loyalty, survival, and desire, Medea and Jason seal a fateful vow, their emotions bare beneath the silver stars.

**“The Rite of Protection”** **Description:** Alone in the Field of Ares, Jason anoints himself with Medea’s enchanted balm, preparing to face the fire and fury that awaits.

JASON MASTERS AIETES’ BULLS, SEWS FIELD WITH DRAGONS’ TEETH THAT GROW INTO WARRIORS

**“Jason Masters the Fire-Bulls”** Before the court of Colchis, Jason conquers the fire-breathing bulls and prepares the cursed field for the sowing of Dragon’s Teeth.

**“Eyes of Struggle and Defiance”** Jason’s fierce resolve, King Aietes’ fury, and Medea’s hidden hope fill the Field of Ares as fate tilts toward the hero.

**“The Birth of the Earthborn Warriors”** From the dragon’s teeth sown by Jason, spectral warriors rise to challenge the hero in the Field of Ares, as ash and fire swirl beneath a darkened sky.

Jason presented himself on the FIELD OF ARIES, where Aietes held his court, and the Argonauts and two fire-snorthing bulls waited. The Royals hoped for a bloody spectacle ending with Jason dying rather than binding the bronze-hoofed bulls to a plow and with them furrowing a field to sow Dragon’s Teeth.

**“Jason Enters the Field of Ares”** Before King Aietes and all of Colchis, Jason faces the fire-breathing bulls, the fury of the gods, and the weight of his impossible trial.

**“Jason’s Resolve in the Field of Ares”** Jason’s unwavering courage shines in his eyes as he faces the deadly trial laid by King Aietes under a burning sky.

**“The Fury of the Fire-Bulls”** With flames and fury, the monstrous bulls of Colchis await Jason, their rage set to test the hero’s strength and courage.

One of the Bulls charged Jason. He jumped on it. The other bull attacked him with a blast of flames, which would have killed him had he not had Medea’s potion. The potion gave him the agility to escape the bull’s thrusts. He manipulated the bulls to clash with each other.

**“Jason Turns the Tide”** Empowered by Medea’s magic, Jason survives the flames and manipulates the fire-breathing bulls into a furious battle against one another.

**“Jason’s Fury Unleashed”** Amidst fire and chaos, Jason’s courage and magical protection shine as he faces the ferocity of the fire-breathing bulls.

**“Jason Commands the Bulls”** With the fire-breathing bulls tamed and yoked, Jason declares himself ready to sow the field of Colchis with Dragon’s Teeth.

The King hesitated, but Medea assured him that the giant warriors growing from the teeth would complete the gods’ will, which Aietes assumed meant they would kill Jason.

**“Jason’s Triumph”** With the bulls conquered, Jason stands ready to fulfill the next deadly step of his quest, under the stunned eyes of Colchis.

**“Sowing the Seeds of War”** With solemn resolve, Jason sows the Dragon’s Teeth into the cursed field, calling forth the earthborn warriors of legend.

A cinematic, realistic fantasy-style illustration showing the dramatic moment when the earthborn warriors rise from the cursed Field of Ares after Jason has sown the Dragon’s Teeth. Cracks split the scorched ground as ghostly, armored warriors claw their way upward, their bronze weapons glinting in the smoky sunlight. Jason, still standing strong with his empty leather bag, watches with fierce determination, ready for battle. The fire-snorting bulls are yoked behind the plow in the distance, while King Aietes, Medea, the Argonauts, and the Colchian court look on in stunned silence. The atmosphere is electric with magic, dread, and the eruption of ancient power. Title: 'Rise of the Earthborn'.

But Medea had warned Jason to throw a round rock among the giants. The rock made the giants fight with each other while Jason killed each of them.
