"Dreadful Oracle" refers to a type of prophetic figure or source of knowledge that delivers ominous or foreboding predictions. It often embodies themes of fate, uncertainty, and the darker aspects of foresight. In literature and mythology, such oracles can invoke fear or anxiety, as their messages may reveal unavoidable truths about the future. The term can also be used metaphorically to describe any source of information that brings unsettling or alarming insights.
He gets killed
The dreadful oracle delivered to King Acrisius foretold that he would be killed by his own grandson. To prevent this prophecy from coming true, Acrisius imprisoned his daughter, Danaë, in a bronze chamber. However, Zeus visited her in the form of golden rain, and she gave birth to Perseus, ultimately leading to the fulfillment of the oracle when Perseus accidentally killed Acrisius later in life.
The dreadful oracle in the Gorgon's head refers to the ability of the Gorgon, particularly Medusa, to turn anyone who gazes directly at her into stone. In Greek mythology, her head, especially after her death, became a powerful symbol and weapon, capable of instilling fear and ensuring protection. The concept of the oracle suggests a prophetic or foreboding nature, where looking upon Medusa's head reveals a grim fate for the beholder. Ultimately, it embodies themes of beauty, terror, and the consequences of confronting the monstrous.
