How old was Perseus?

It is believed that Perseus was at least 27 years old when she fell in love with the Greek God, Achilles when she got captured and taken to the Greek camp. Perseus got rescued by her cousin, the king of Troy, and taken back with him. When the invasion happened, Achilles was looking for her and she was being held by the King of Greece. She then plunged a knife into his neck thus killing him. When Achilles was there comforting her, Paris saw them and thought Achilles was hurting his cousin, and reached for his arrows. Perseus saw him and screamed, "No! Don't!" but it was too late. The arrow plunged into Achilles' heel, causing him a shock of pain. He was shot three more times in the stomach until he finally went down. Perseus was devastated, but left with Paris. People are saying that Perseus never loved anyone like she loved Achilles, and I, for one, believe that, too. *PLEASE NOTE: I am 11 years old, and I know all this stuff! Mostly from watching 'Troy' over, and over again! :)
