Perseus

Perseus was the son of a mortal woman, Danae, and the great god Zeus, the king of heaven. Danae's father, King Acrisius had learned from an oracle that one day his grandson would kill him and, terrified, imprisoned his daughter and drove out all her suitors. Zeus was a god and wanted his daughter Danae. He entered the prison disguised as a shower of golden rain, and the result of their union was Perseus. Discovering Acrisius that despite their precautions, had a grandson, he put Danae and her son in a wooden chest and thrown into the sea, waiting to drown.
