Well I was about to post about Bellerophon but you beat me to it XD

And... I have a whole slew of issues with the Hercules cartoon.... But then I remember Disney's lack of accuracy in well pretty much every fairy tale ever and realize that I really shouldn't expect them to give Hercules more accuracy than The Little Mermaid.

^ oh i agree that I wouldn't expect them to make Hercules (well Zeus is there So technically its Heracles but Hercules has been more popular since like the romans named him that so i wont fault them there) any more accurate than their other movies, but its kinda annoying to see people base their knowledge of ancient myths on a disney film without at least mentioning they got it from a disney film.

(Then again I only watched like half of hercules as a child, and had a story book about Bellerophon and Pegasus killing the chimera so maybe its just me)

XD I ran out of fantasy/scifi books at my school library and ended up reading everything on Norse, Greek, and Egyptian mythology available XD

Mythologically speaking, unicorns could be summoned by young, virginal maidens only, but Pegasus was a horse that belonged to Hercules (who obviously was a man), so the female-only Peg Knights makes no sense to me.

Pegasi are now being exclusively used by the not!Japan faction despite being creatures from Greek mythology. I think it's safe to say Fire Emblem chooses its own lore.
