- After the capture of Elis he marched against Pylus, and having taken the city he slew Periclymenus, the most valiant of the sons of Neleus, who used to change his shape in battle. And he slew Neleus and his sons, except Nestor; for he was a youth and was being brought up among the Gerenians. In the fight he also wounded Hades, who was siding with the Pylians.
- - Apollodorus, Library, Book 2, Chapter 7, Section 3
- (Note: The accounts where he wounded Hades with an arrow are in the bow and arrow section. In this specific translation/source, the god Hades is usually called "Pluto" and the location Hades is just called "Hades." It's possible this source uses "Hades" to refer to "Thanatos," the god of death. In this case however, it seems to just be referring to the god by his more traditional name.)
