Notes from author
Heracles is the First Sun of Great Lord Gwyn, though he was conceived by a mortal woman. He was born with incredible strength, strong enough to defend the throne if it was ever threatened, even against giants with ease. He is the strongest man among mortals, settling in as a demigod, but with such a status, he was revoked from the Kingdom of Lordran prior to turning of age. Gwyn, in fear that the affair would bring up bitter hatred of his royalty, determined that it would be best if his Firstborn went elsewhere for many years until it could blow over. Willing and understanding of his father's unreasonable, yet necessary request, he decided to leave Anor Londo and go on his own quest for those unknown amount of years. Thus, his son bears the armor of the royal nights and even similar armor to the well praised Havel, as he ventures across Lordran looking for the Chosen Undead. Only if he finds him, will he ever be able to return home and become a saint equivalent to the Four Knights of Gwyn.
