Apollo is very important in Greek mythology. His father is Zeus and his mother is Leto. He also has a twin sister named Artemis. He is also the patron for the Pythia.
When Acrisius consulted the Pythia regarding his chances for having a son, he was told that he would never have a son of his own, but rather, his daughter would. Further, that grandson would eventually kill him. This is why he locked Danae in the tower away from men, to prevent her from having that child. That son would be Perseus, who did indeed kill Acrisius after slaying Medusa.
