On one occasion Medusa as expected took a stroll near the ocean when unexpectedly she heard a profound voice calling out to her. Terrified Medusa glanced all ways and perceived how a forcing and slim being risen up out of the waters. It was the god Poseidon and at that point Medusa was completely deadened. Poseidon attempted to lure her yet the blameless young lady attempted to dismiss his advances. Poseidon with honeyed words and trickery attempted to get hold of the maiden. However, Medusa remembered her commitments so she would not have relations with the god. Regardless of the incredible standing of Poseidon, Medusa wouldn't quit being a priestess of Athena. Brimming with wrath, Poseidon took her powerfully by the arm and told her that she wouldn't be there to choose and that he would make her his. At that time loaded up with dread, Medusa attempted to break free from the God's arms and with an extraordinary catastrophe for his face she figured out how to get away from in franticness. Medusa was alarmed by the presence of the god and shouted out for help as she advanced toward the Sanctuary of Athena the main spot where she had a good sense of security. In any case, Poseidon didn't surrender and loaded up with want, followed the wonderful young lady to the sanctuary. With Tears In Her Eyes, Medusa begged the protection of her goddess kneeling at the feet of the Sculpture of Athena. She shouted out for help. In the interim, Poseidon entered the sanctuary and when he saw Medusa kneeling on one side of the raised area of Athena, his desire dazed him. Rapidly, he raced to the young lady and got her strongly who was attempting her best to escape however fruitless in doing as such. There at the special stepped area of Athena, Poseidon abused the most reliable of his opponent's priestesses. A while later, Poseidon gradually left the sanctuary leaving a completely stained safe-haven and the Sanctuary of Athena of which the goddess was glad for its immaculateness. He additionally left Medusa Athena's most faithful servant and Priestess totally crushed. At the point when Athena saw what had happened she went to her Sanctuary and brimming with rage. She faulted Medusa for spoiling her Flawless Sanctuary. Athena let Medusa know that she was her extravagance and vanity had made men bug her and faulted her for the maltreatment that Poseidon committed against her. In the wake of hearing the brutal expressions of the Goddess, Medusa felt embarrassed and regretful. Athena had no control over her rage against Medusa so she chose to rebuff her for eternity thus the goddess transformed her into a massive and shocking being very much like her sisters. Also Aphrodite exploited the event and changed her lovely hair into noxious snakes. Medusa sobbed continually on the floor of the Sanctuary. She didn't have any idea how to help she was as of now not unadulterated and her appearance was genuinely unnerving. Around evening time Iphicles went looking for his dearest Medusa for frightful reports were encompassing the maiden so he chose to visit her. When he entered the sanctuary, he found her lying on the floor sobbing sharply. Iphicles shouted to her and with uplifting statements he gradually moved toward her. Medusa shouted out to him telling him to not approach as she didn't want him to see what she had become. Iphicles didn't tune in and keep on moving toward her until he contacted her shoulder. He contacted Medusa's shoulder and unexpectedly got an enormous bite. Medusa, scared, quickly stood up and gazed directly into the eyes of Iphicles who had promptly gone to stone. Medusa was panicked for she didn't have the foggiest idea about what had simply occurred. She embraced the figure of her companion and shouted in despair for she was unable to accept what she had caused. Acknowledging what she was sentenced to, Medusa chose to escape from the city and escaped in franticness. Individuals who saw her would yell barbarities at her horrendous appearance so it was unavoidable that the young lady wouldn't turn to see them unfortunately transforming them into simple stone sculptures. Medusa was tucked away among trees so as not to be seen by anybody.However, the word had previously gotten out that a shocking monster was freezing and threatening individuals. The town’s individuals were brimming with outrage and they accumulated spears and torches to go looking for the monster and kill it. Every one of the ones who went to chase Medusa never returned until days after the fact they were found having been transformed into stone. Everybody in Athens was frightened since the horrendous beast could finish them off with only one look. Medusa in the wake of seeing the deceitful mistreatment against her chose to escape to a far off City where nobody had resided for a long time. There, she spent quite a while alone loaded with trouble and torment. Overtime, her fragile and Enchanting Humankind disappeared and she turned out to be increasingly terrifying and antagonistic. For quite a long time many warriors and knights went looking for the feared beast however nobody at any point returned. As per one adaptation of The Legend, Medusa became pregnant by Poseidon which chafed Athena making her search for the champion Perseus to have him kill her. Athena would have furnished Perseus with a few Heavenly items to embrace his excursion and not be gone to stone like the others. Perseus arrived at the hyperborean lands where Medusa was meandering and covertly kept an eye on her so he would know when to go after her. Brimming with dread, he chose to hold on until the Enormous beast nodded off. At the point when night came, Medusa was fast asleep and he creeped upon her and with his sword beheaded her. He took Medusa's head with blood trickling endlessly from it and from that blood arose the children of Medusa: Pegasus and Chrysaor. Perseus feeling successful got back to the goddess Athena and as evidence of his valiance gave her the head of Medusa. The goddess alarmed, took it and put it on her Shield where it is said that it remained perpetually for it actually had the dim powers of going individuals to Stone.
