:: Andromeda Myth

Andromeda was the princess of Ethiopia (daughter of Cepheus and Cassiopiea).

Cassiopeia was a bragged a lot and bragged that she was more beautiful than Juno, the queen of the gods, and the Nereids. In order to avenge the insult to his nymphs, Neptune sent a sea monster to ravage the Ethiopian coast. The king consulted Ammon, the oracle of Jupiter. He said that Neptune could only be satisfied by sacrificing Cassiopeia's daughter Andromeda to the monster. Andromeda was chained to a rock on the coast, fully exposed to the monster. Fortunately for her Perseus happened to be flying by on the Pegasus, he saves Andromeda and get married.

Andromeda joined Perseus in a lot of his journeys, she even met Athena in one of those.
