Alternate Timeline (Armageddon Now)


 * You might be looking for another Alternate Reality.

This alternate reality was caused by Callisto, when she used the Kronos stone to go back in time and prevent Hercules from being born; an order given to her by Hope, who (for the second time) had released her from entrapment. This led to Xena never being reformed and becoming an all=powerful and evil empress, known as "Xena the Conquerer" throughout Greece. While she still commenced the attack Cirra, it was not her that killed Callisto's parents; this time around it was Callisto herself, who accidentally did so when trying to protect them with her powers. Gabrielle was also crucified by Xena in this reality, after she stood up against Xena's evil ways.

Whilst Hercules is stuck in the Strange World with the Sovereign, Iolaus uses the Kronos stone himself to travel back in time, save Alcmene (and subsequently Hercules), which therefore puts everything right, even the fact that it was Xena's army that killed Callisto's parents' not Callisto herself.
