THE HYDRA
Each month we will be looking at a different mythical beast. This month it is the hydra. As you can see the hydra was quite a monster.
The Hydra lived in the swamps near Lerna in Greece. It had the body of a snake and many heads. One head could not be hurt by any weapon and if you cut off any of the other heads two would grow in its place. The Hydra's breath was deadly too. The poor people of Lerna were terrorised by it.
It was finally killed by the Greek hero Hercules with the help of his nephew Iolaus. Hercules kept bashing the Hydra's heads with his club, but then they kept growing. Iolaus saved the day by holding a lighted torch to the headless necks before the new heads could grow. In the end Hercules was left with the one head that couldn't be killed with a weapon. Hercules hit the head with his club, then tore it off with his bare hands and buried it under a stone.
-- Clearly we need a Hercules and/or Iolaus to figure out how to slay adhesions!cathy :-)
