Xena is an infamous warrior on a quest to seek redemption for her past sins against the innocent. Accompanied by her comrade-in-arms Gabrielle, the campy couple use their formidable fighting skills to help those who are unable to defend themselves.
Gabrielle wants to enter the Athens City Academy of the Performing Bards, but finds that it is not quite what she thought it would be. She helps another aspiring bard discover his true storytelling talent.
Xena searches for Ambrosia, a substance capable of turning someone into a god. She hopes to find it before someone who is unworthy to be a god does.
The daughter of King Lias, Diana, is the target of assassins. Fortunately, Xena looks almost exactly like her. So, Xena goes undercover to force the assassins out of hiding and capture them.
When her dead love Marcus, asks Xena to help save good souls, she travels to the underworld to set things right.
Xena enlists the help of Autolycus, the King of Thieves, in order to steal a treasure chest from a warlord and return it to its rightful owners - unless Autolycus has something to say about that.
After freezing in the face of danger, a confused Gabrielle returns home to Potidaea, where she receives a not-so-warm welcome from the people, who have hired a so-called warrior to save them from a warlord.
