Best Answer

Poesiden was a Greek god who ruled the seas and created horses. Medusa was his girlfriend and one day they decided to have a date in Athena's temple because Poesiden and Athena both wanted to be patron god of Athens and the people choose Athena and they have hated each other ever since. Anyways, Athena went somewhere and when she found her uncle and this chick in her home, she went berserk. She knew she couldn't do anything to the dude but she switched the chick to a snake haired lady.
