Medusa Mythology Mga Nobela at Kwento

"So, can you tell me how did you create the Charybdis? All I know is that Charybdis is the child of Poseidon and Gaea, they are greek mythology that I don't even know if they were real—" "They are." Putol niya sa akin. "The Greek gods were real as they label themselves but they are not actual gods. They are the children of an ancient monster named Cronus and they bear magical powers that separate them and step up from the mortals. They can grant a wish and their powers are increasing the more people devotes themselves and prays for them. But they are not gods as they claim. Only mortals believe that they are gods and goddesses because they can do something a normal human can't." Paliwanag ni

Parang si Zeus lang, pero hindi babaero. "Vanora, the goddess of water, comes next. She is the creator of the oceans, and other sea creatures. She represents power and invincibility. Because of what she did so many years ago, she is also known as the second to the most scariest goddess," aniya bago itinuro ang katabi ni Thyros na babae. "Ms. Jesiah?" Napalingon kami sa kaklase naming biglang nagtaas ng kamay at tinawag si Prof.

Sa pagbukas ng aking mga paningin ay aking ikinagulat ang nasaksihan. Hindi pangkaraniwan ang kaniyang itsura. Siya’y kalahating hubad ngunit ang kaniyang katawan ay nababalot ng mga itim na balahibo. Tila mga balahibo ng isang oso. Magmula sa kaniyang likuran hanggang sa mga braso’t kamay. Ang kaniyang mga kuko’y mahaba. Ito ba ang tinutukoy ni Panginoong Aeacus? Mukhang siya lamang ang naiiba sa mga diyos ng Olympus.

She is an epitome of an everlasting youth and beauty! "Close your mouth, semideus," she said, chuckling. She was about to go near me when the dragon appeared in front of her and was about to release another blast. The goddess' smiling face vanished and was replaced by a creased forehead and sharp piercing eyes. "I am still talking to Dhivus' son. Don't meddle!" she shouted as pixies-a one-foot tall genderless creatures who possess the body of a mage and wings of a butterfly-appeared. "Children, take care of that monster."

"Kahit nag iba ang kanyang itsura, hindi ko makakalimutan ang boses na iyon. Ang boses na nag utos para ubosin ang ating lahi." Hinawakan ng Luna ang mukha ng Alpha upang ito ay pakalmahin. "Ano ang kailangan nila kay Andromeda?" "Andromeda is not just an ordinary girl... she's an offspring of a Goddess, who's currently in a mansion of a sorciere inside in a scared room." Napasinghap ang Luna sa kanyang narinig. Kaya pala iba ang nararamdaman niya noong kaharap niya ang bata labing limang taon na ang nakaraan.

O di naman kaya ay si Medusa? Lihim akong natawa sa pagkakasangkot ng gorgon na si Medusa sa alamat ng Greece. "Still you want to know who I am?" The goddess said in a sarcastic yet enchanting voice. But how she smiled at me, it seemed the glance of her eyes escaped out of all her irritated looks. Habang lalong nitong pinapa-glitters ang smile nito at mga mata, lalo lang itong nagiging kaakit-akit. A kind of seductive secret of every beautiful woman.

And life is dark, for what seems to be. "You know the story medusa? Throughout history, Medusa got the bad reputation as a scornful, evil woman who turns people into stone with a mere glance. However, much like most women of ancient mythology, she was a victim of patriarchal societal norms. Medusa’s origins, her trauma, and her pain are conveniently forgotten when it comes to telling her story. And I can say that I'm a villain but a victim. I'm the medusa in this time. Not every villain is villain itself, the victim turned into the criminal she wasn't supposed to be. You're all mad at me because of my bad reputation, isinantabi n'yo lahat ang trauma, sakit at paghihirap ko dahil mas nakita n

Thena was eating peacefully until Poly disturbed her. Ganito ang hapag-kainan sa tuwing magkakasama kaming siyam. Funny how my parents wanted to have more than two children while others already had enough for them to have two to three kids. My mom's obsession with Greek mythology led her to have us represent nine muses. Calliope, Kleio, or Ke for short, Erato—me, Euterpe, which is Ali—she doesn't want to be called Euterpe, kaya second name nalang niyang Aliyah, Melpomene, and Thalia—who's twin, Polyhymia, Terpsichore Athena—we called her Athena or Thena, just like Ali, Thena doesn't want to be called Terpsichore, and lastly, our bunso Urania.

Tumingin s'ya sa bintana, at teka, imahinasyon ko lamang ba na tila kumaway sa 'kin ang sanga ng mga puno? "Huh?" gulat kong reaksyon na tinawanan n'ya. "I'm Kraneia. Goddess of tree." Nagbow pa s'ya sa akin. Alinsaba'y n'on ay ang paghatak n'ya sa braso ko. "They are the Dryads." Tinuro n'ya ang mga puno. At this time hindi na talaga imahinasyon o ilusyon ang nakikita kong pagkaway ng mga sangang iyon.

Parang isang Greek God ang taong ito. Si Zeus iyon, may malamlam na ngiti sa gilid ng kanyang labi. Umupo ito sa tabi niya, tinitingnan siya na parang isang maliit na tuta na walang magawa. Ang mata nito ay kasing lamig ng yelo. Sinubukan ulit ni Maureen na gumalaw, ngunit wala pa rin siyang lakas. Nanlalambot ang kanyang mga buto. Hindi niya mawari kung bakit siya nagkakaganoon.
