Pelias was mentioned in the myth 'The Quest for the Golden Fleece'. He had been told by an oracle that he would die at the hands of a kinsman, and should be wary of anyone wearing one sandal. Later, Jason arrived with one sandal, and Pelias sent him on the quest for the Golden Fleece, promising the kingdom and the sovereign rule to him if he succeeded.
