/ˌhi.ɹoʊˈɑ.ɡə.ni/ · noun
The history and genealogy of demigods or heroes, especially the uncompleted history found in portions of Hesiod's Theogony..
[…] the last portion, which is in fact a heroogony, being an account of the heroes born by mortal morthers whose charms had drawn the immortals from Olympus.
The Theogony consists of a cosmogony, a theogony proper, and an unfinished heroogony.
Whether or not Hesiod added it himself, it should be no surprise that at the end of the Theogony there is a short heroogony (937f).
Use heroogony when its meaning, tone and grammar fit the full sentence. A synonym is not always a direct replacement.
