Atlas retrieves the fruits of knowledge and precursors for the potion holy blood of atlas, though it was Hercules as atlas who retrieved the immortal fruit and became immortal.
The leader of the Atlantians the current atlas, went off to get the fig or fruits necessary to create the holy blood of atlas, this was his part in the task. Hercules was made atlas as it was believed this was necessary to ascend to the garden. In the manner of many religious substances the fruit was kept a secret by the Atlantian ruling class and priests, Egypt is renown for keeping such secrets, So atlas went off to get the fruit and Hercules was made atlas long enough to be able to ascend and enter the western paradise. Not every atlas was ever made immortal as not every pharos became a real God, the two traditions were similar. The pro Greek atlas giving reign again could have been the same atlas that was impressed by Hercules’s ascendance, the fooling him back to power was more for the people of Atlantis and not Hercules and the current atlas. Thus only an atlas could transcend to the paradise according to Atlantian belief, though this is not true, and only the atlas could get the fruits and substances necessary as precursors to the potion that was the blood of atlas. Thus the entire myth of this task is covered and made sense of, Though atlas got the fruit grown in secret and got Hercules to the point of entering the paradise, it was Hercules who retrieved the fruit of life that was placed in that garden paradise for him, as this was Hercules high heaven created for him. Hercules could return to greek with the fruits and substances that were precursors of the holy blood of atlas as well as what he gained during his wa;lk with God(s).
