This is the fifth short story in the Accursed Women collection and is about Medousa. I've written the story retrospectively, beginning with Medousa as a gorgon hunted by Perseus and go back in time to when she is a child living with her parents. I wanted to show Medousa as a real person, with siblings, parents and dreams. However, with most ancient Greek legends featuring women, she is vilified and made into a monster as a way for men to blame the female race for their sexual attraction and power.
