Nice work Greg. Medusa has always been one of my favourite mythological characters.
Quote:
Medusa [me-dou'sa] or Medousa, "ruler."
One of the three Gorgons, some accounts say she was a beautiful woman until Athena caught her making love with Poseidon in one of her temples. As a punishment, Athena turned Medusa into a monster with bulging eyes, a protruding tongue, and snakes for hair. When Perseus beheaded Medusa, Chrysaor and Pegasus, the children Poseidon had fathered, sprang from her (Hesiod, Theogony 270-283; Apollodorus 2.4.2). Family Tree 35.
