She who sees me by AriaYoon4

They called her a monster. They never saw her break. After centuries of silence, Medusa lives alone in a forest of stone-haunted by gods, hunted by men, and burdened by a curse that turns love into ash. Her name, once sacred, is now a warning whispered in fear. But everything begins to change the day a blind witch named Nyxara steps into her world. Nyxara has survived exile, rejection, and a magic that heals as easily as it kills. She was cast out for being too dangerous, too different, too queer-and yet, the goddess Selene gave her a name, a purpose, and a vision: Find the Gorgon. Teach her she is not broken. As Medusa and Nyxara grow closer, so do the eyes of the gods. Selene watches with quiet pride. Athena watches with unraveling fury. And Medusa must decide if she can rewrite her story-not as a monster, but as a woman who survived the divine and still dared to love. A story of myth reclaimed, trauma unbound, and love powerful enough to turn stone into flesh again. DISCLAIMER: the story of Medusa that we all know and love is not from Greek mythology. This book is not inspired by Greek mythology. It is inspired by the poet Ovid that made a book named metamorphosis in the Roman mythology which told the tale of Medusa where she was born a human died of Gorgon please do not confuse the two. In the Greek mythology Medusa was born in Gorgon died of Gorgon she was part of the three sisters born to a sea deity she had no background nothing she was only known for having snakes for hair. In Roman mythology the poet Ovid dove in into her story with his own imagination which is a big part of the reason why she is always shown as a monster and not a survivor please remember that.

"Echoes of the Gaze" weaves a tale of two individuals who defy destiny's cruel twists, embracing the beauty within their imperfections. Medusa, the infamous Gorgon with snakes for hair, lives a secluded life in the ruins of a forgotten temple on the outskirts of Aethria.

Despite his blindness, he has learned to navigate the world with grace and courage, using his heightened senses of touch, sound, and intuition. His music is renowned throughout the city, captivating all who hear it.

Blind Evocation (Male!Medusa x Blind!Male!Reader) by A-Lusk

Y/n L/n had always aspired to be like one of the heroes that legends were written about. Unfortunately, no matter how much one desires something, they can't always achieve their wish. So no matter how many times Y/n tries to learn how to fight with a sword, tries to detect his enemies, or works on complicated footwork, he will never be a warrior. For he is blind. Rendered sightless from birth, and he is incapable of being a warrior at any capacity. So, it's a cruel, twisted joke when a Trickster God comes to Y/n in his dreams and tells the boy he's chosen for a divine quest. That quest, you ask? To hunt down and kill one of the most ruthless monsters that terrorizes the coastal town of Aegium. Medusa. However, there is an astounding amount of lack-of-foresight and planning - from everyone, all around (even the author). And just maybe, Y/n can be the hero he's always wanted to be. In an entirely different way, of course. _____ Preview: Not many Greek warriors entered the Gorgon's cave in such a bold, abrasive manner anymore. They especially did not wave their swords in the air wildly about their person and declare: "Why do you think I am here? I've been sent on a godly quest to defeat a tentacle monster!" "Pardon?" the Gorgon asked, surprised into speech by the (h/c) man's words. "Or maybe some kind of serpent. The gods weren't very clear on that part now that I think about it," the strange man continued, his back still turned to Medusa. ...It had been a long while since Medusa has felt this out of his depth. (Just wait until he learns that this man doesn't turn to stone). _____ Ft. Gay Medusa.
