After the burial, the Argonauts sailed away and touched at [[Mysia]], where they left behind Heracles and Polyphemus. [[Hylas]], son of Thiodamas, had been sent to draw water and was ravished away by [[nymph]]s on account of his beauty. However, Polyphemus heard him cry out and gave chase, believing that he was being carried off by robbers. After informing Heracles, the ship put to sea while the two searched for Hylas. Polyphemus ended up founding the city [[Cius]] in Mysia, reigning as king while Heracles returned to Argos, though accounts differ regarding Heracles' story. [[Herodorus]]' version says that Heracles did not sail at all at that time, but was instead serving as a slave at the court of [[Omphale]]. [[Pherecydes of Athens|Pherecydes]]' version says that he was left behind at [[Aphetae]] in Thessaly, the Argo having declared with human voice that she could not bear his weight. Nevertheless, [[Demaratus of Corinth|Demaratus]] recorded that Heracles sailed to Colchis; for [[Dionysius of Halicarnassus|Dionysius]] even affirmed that he was the leader of the Argonauts.<ref>Apollodorus, 1.9.19</ref>
