terrible giant, all he can put together from his shattered memory is that he

was sent to aid Jason and the Argonauts on their incredible mission. As he

joins them on their quest, Proteus soon discovers that he is not like other

never to grow tired; he has unexplainable control of the sea that surrounds

him, and he is able to see things that no one else can. But, there seems to be

by Jason’s arch nemesis, King Pelias, seems to recognize Proteus . . . as

being one of them.
