Medusa
It was believed that Medusa
used to a beautiful girl, who
was deeply loved by Poseidon.
She was too proud and Athena
was very angry. She cast a spell on Medusa, turned her fair hair into vipers. The horrible thing is, Medusa’s eyes have shocking lights. Anyone who see her in the eyes will turn to stone status.
