Persian myths and legends often feature divs, creatures who work mischief on behalf of the evil spirit Ahriman.

(47) Last episode began a retelling of the Greek hero Jason’s quest to retrieve the Golden Fleece. This task was given to him by his cruel half-uncle Pelias who hoped the dangerous quest would kill his nephew.

This episode covers the adventures they had on the way.
