In the movie after Meg dies for Hercules he goes to the underworld and fights hades only to realize he can’t win. To save Meg he jumps into the Rivers Styx which was the sacrifice needed to unlock his godhood and carried Meg’s soul back to her body
What if the tale was rewritten? What if Megaras’ sacrifice to Hercules was in vain? What if, instead of forfeiting his own life for Megs, Hercules’ was blinded by bitterness over Megs betrayal? Abandoning her to an eternity in the underworld, while he found another, less altruistic way to ascend to godhood and spent his own eternity amongst the immortals, sitting comfortably beside his father, in a throne of his own. What then happens to Meg? What does she become?… Well that is indeed how our tale differs from the original. After being abandoned by Hercules and left for dead, Meg finds herself floating down the river Styx. The final resting place for the lost souls of the dead, who are doomed to repeat their worst moments in life over and over again, until all the life is drained from them. Meg never lost her desire to live though, it burned brightly like a flame that could not be extinguished, fuelled by the hatred she had for the Men and Gods alike who had treated her life as a means to an end. Every memory she relived added to the fire, Her first love leaving her, Hades manipulating and holding her soul ransom, and the worst, Hercules leaving her under that pillar to die, knowing that every time she called to him, he had heard but had not answered. All these memories fuelled her rage until it burned so hot, the river itself seemed to boil around her. Charon, the fated ferryman of the river, noticed this anger and plucked her from the waters. No one usually makes it this long in the river. And so Megara made a deal with the Ferrymen, who told her the secret of the gods immortality and how to take it for her own, in exchange for a seat in her new pantheon. Armed with forbidden knowledge, Meg steals Hades life essence from him, gaining his powers and leaving what remained of his rotting soul to join the waters of the river. We meet Meg after these events as she introduces herself to her subjects as the new queen of the underworld. Here she outlines her plan to take control, the underworld was just the beginning, she would topple the very mountain of Olympus, taking an army of the undead with her to kill Hercules and any other God that would stand in her way. She will strip them of their power, make it her own and punish them for meddling with the lives of mortals for “sport”. But absolute power corrupts absolutely, and with Meg heading up a new pantheon of Gods, a cycle already seen with the titans, will surely start again. Meg plans to take power and she plans on keeping it...
You gotta read the description in each of the villain songs, it helps explain everything :) Also, her Rapunzel villain video and the Mulan video is also really good.
