Entry #2: Greek Monsters

I researched about Medusa. She had two sisters who had snake hair and bronze arms with wings on their backs. Medusa was actually a really pretty lady, and she was going to marry one of the gods. Before she got the chance to, she made a bold statement saying that she is prettier than the fourteen daughters of Poseidon. When the they heard this, they got mad. They asked their father to curse her, and that is how she got her uglyness, snake-hair, and bronze arms. Because of her ugliness, her fiance left her, and her ugliness turned everybody who had eye contact with her into stone. Many kings sent brave soldiers to kill her, but none were successful, except Perseus. He was a son of Zeus, the king of all gods, and Danae, a human. One king wanted to marry Danae, so he tricks Perseus to go kill Medusa for him. Perseus, with the help from Athena and Hermes, who supplied him with winged sandals, Hades' cap of invisibility, a sword, and a mirrored shield, successively kills Medusa.
