Hear me mortals. I am Hermes and bear an important message from Zeus.

The Titans broke their eternal prison and roam the earth once more. The one of you most clever and tenacious shall be called Hero of the Gods and banish their foul spawn back where they belong. Great honor and treasure will be your reward.

Five quests you need to solve, to prove your worth. If more than one of you may survive those tasks Tyche will cast her die.

First, cut the head off the imprudent rogue who robbed the strongest hero and lived.(Boon:The thief you seek is neither god nor man but a race of little tricksters in itself.)

Next search for my mother and aunts among the countless stars. (Boon: Once you find my mother and her sisters, remember they are divine kin, thus different from all the other tasks. Do not take any parts of their bodies, nor speak their name. What remains is what you seek.)

Now find the hundred-armed giant and take his third and eighth hand. Turn them to 90 and bring it to me.
(Boon:Indeed for your sake the quests where given and the answers asked in English. Alas, this is not my ancestors tongue, and sometimes things may changed in translation. The 90 I seek in my own language is ϟ . Once correctly turned any hand ought to be right.)

Between heaven and earth find the king of creatures and bring me its body.
(Boon:The king of creatures you need to find is the mightiest no only of earth, but also of the sky. Bring me not just one of it's parts, but the body of the whole.)

Lastly race the god-sired horse, eternal, swift and gifted with tongue. Seize its tail.

There is no time to be lost, the situation is grave. Bring me your spoils ere five days have passed or your chance will be void.

Some help would indeed be appreciated.

First, I could not find a single thief who survived the wrath of the strongest hero I know. Is there another one, stronger than the demigod I (as many surely have) loved as a child?

Next, I'm pretty sure I've found your mother and her sisters. I assumed it was their lovely heads I was supposed to pay attention to, was this presumptuous?

Now, on my quest I have fought some hundred-armed giant, but there were actually two kinds of them, with slightly different hands. Should I cut two fingers, or is it just turning that that is required?

Between the two names I know, the royal beast I tamed expressed no preference. Does the sound I'm looking for consist of one or more letters?

Lastly, thanks to the aforementioned animal it wasn't hard to reach the horse, but its tail was too magnificent to spoil, so I took a picture of it. <3

And one last question... all we're looking for is in the English version, we're not meddling with a dead language, right? :D

(Please, let me know if I've been too cryptic, or not enough.)

Zeus is pleased with your progress. Several of you have proven quite far on their quest, and all of you stayed honorable. Therefore you are granted a boon.
Every day one quest may be made clearer.

Indeed for your sake the quests where given and the answers asked in English. Alas, this is not my ancestors tongue, and sometimes things may changed in translation. The 90 I seek in my own language is ϟ . Once correctly turned any hand ought to be right.

Damn it, I'm pretty sure I got everything except 3rd one. Although I'm not certain about the 1st, there are multiple posibilites, like for the 4th I'm pretty sure I know what it is, but again, it's phrased so it might be a diffrent word.

Fun though.

Oh cunning Hermes, I have slain the king of creatures and dragged his body here, all the way from the slopes of Pélion. The problem is... the bloody thing is too long! It won't even fit on the sacrificial altar! Maybe a quarter would be enough?

(out-of-character: I'm pretty sure I'm taking this the wrong way, and the other idea I came up with will be correct, but I couldn't resist. It's the little role-player in me. :-) And, of course, my guess can be wrong and this might actually be the way it's supposed to work. :-))

If you slew the creature I desired, it shall have two fillets of equal quality. Sacrifice either and your quest will be fulfilled.

It is time for a second boon. The thief you seek is neither god nor man but a race of little tricksters in itself.

Also, note that I would not require you to slay any gods. It would be a deed most foolish to attempt.

O smooth-tongued Hermes, tell me which parts of your mother and her sisters should I bring to you. I don't want to risk cutting their heads off when I can manage only with several legs.

My mother and her sisters are not to be harmed. Only in full and together they are what they are.

Once more I will grant you a boon to help fulfill your quests. One clever mortal already completed them all, but Tyche is fickle and requires her part. Time yet remains for you all.

Once you find my mother and her sisters, remember they are divine kin, thus different from all the other tasks. Do not take any parts of their bodies, nor speak their name. What remains is what you seek.

Remember all that cheaters and swindlers could never be named hero. Only those who fight valiant and true are eligible.
Those who try to trick others into solving their tasks will be removed from the contest altogether. And be happy if Zeus does not grant you a farewell gift of lightning and thunder unto your head.

More than a day you still have time. 5 noble warriors have reached their goal.

The king of creatures you need to find is the mightiest no only of earth, but also of the sky. Bring me not just one of it's parts, but the body of the whole.

Hermes! I call on you because I am in need of assistance. I am not quite sure on the King of Creatures. My only thought is that it would be a son of Gaia and Uranus considering the ruling of both Sky and Earth, but that would be a lot of children. I am at a loss, and although I fear him, I am starting to long the presence of Hades.
