When Peleus and Thetis were married, all the gods and goddesses had been invited,
except for one: Eris, the goddess of discord. Insulted because of this, she took revenge by throwing a golden apple into the crowd, inscribed with the words
"To the fairest". Hera, Athena and Aphrodite each claimed it, and none of the other
gods dared gave an opinion as to who should get it, for fear of making enemies out
of the other two. Finally, Zeus decreed that a mortal named Paris, a son of Priam,
the king of Troy, would judge who should get the apple. Since Paris could not choose between the three, they offered him bribes: Hera offered him control of Asia, Athena offered wisdom, skill in battle and the abilities of the greatest warriors, and Aphrodite offered him the love of the most beautiful mortal woman alive: Helen of Sparta.
So, Paris gave the apple to Aphrodite, thus becoming the catalyst of the Trojan War.

Who was Perseus?
Perseus was a child of Zeus and a mortal woman. He was found as a baby and brought up by strangers. He was travelling and eventually came across a city. He went into the city through the city gates, and saw a person being burnt at the stake. He asked a guard why and the guard replied, "He answered the 'Andromeda Riddle' wrong. Andromeda asks a question and you must answer. If you get it wrong, well you know what happens. But, if you get it right, you get to marry the princess." So Perseus went up to Andromeda and answered her riddle correctly. Perseus was invited to a royal feast celebrating his victory and the king said, "You are lucky. She is more beautiful than the goddess of beauty." This offended the gods and they sent them a warning saying that if they did not sacrifice Andromeda to the gods by the Kraken eating her, they would wreak havoc throughout the city. They decided that they would have to do it. But Perseus was smart and went questing, along with a few others, for a way to kill the Kraken. As he was leaving, he found a Diamond Sword and a shiny Shield. He found after several days, Medusa's Lair where he defeated her by looking at her reflection in his shield. He took its' head and flew, using a Pegasus to rescue Andromeda. He reached her just as the Kraken arose. He made the Kraken look at Medusa's head and turned the Powerful Sea Monster into stone. He went back to the City to live with Andromeda and her family. I have taken the actual myth and put into simpler words, but it is pretty accurate
