The story starts with a king who wanted a son, but only got a daughter, which isn’t that uncommon in Greek mythology. Anyway, the king wanted to know if he would ever get son, so he went to the oracle of Delphi, the speaker of Apollo, the god of prophecy.

The oracle told him that he would never have a son, but his daughter would have one, and he would kill him! Then she thanked him for his offering and told him to have a nice day. So immediately the king went home and imprisoned his daughter in his cellar. But Zeus helped the daughter get a son. But the king found out. He then put his daughter and her new son in a chest and tossed them into the ocean. But he forgot to sink it. So it floated away to an island where a fisherman found them, freed them, and took them in with his wife. But the despot of the island wanted to marry the daughter, but she didn’t want to do any thing with him. So Perseus, the son was always protecting her. However the despot tricked him into searching for the Gorgons. The Gorgons were three monsters in Greek mythology, daughters of Echidna and Typhon, the mother and father of all monsters respectively. Their names were Stheno, Euryale, and the most famous of them, Medusa. In some stories the gorgons were once humans until Athena, Greek goddess turned them into monsters to cut of medusa’s head for a wedding gift. Medusa was the only mortal gorgon. So he went to the oracle of Delphi where she told him to go to the place where people only ate acorns. And he knew where that was. Dodana.
