Hera forced Ilithyia, a goddess of childbirth, to slow down the birth of Heracles and his twin brother and caused Eurystheus to be born prematurely so that he would be born first and become king. She sent two giant snakes to the chamber of the twins when they were eight months old. She induced a fit of madness into Heracles which made him kill his sons. He guided the oracle of Delphi to direct him to serve king Eurystles and perform all the tasks he asked him. The king gave him ten labour and added two more: the famous twelve labour of Heracles. Hera induced another fit of madness which led him to throwIphitus over the city wall to his death.Iphitus was the brother of a woman she fell in love with and whom he had abducted and his best friend.
