Answer 1

The correct chronological order of events in Perseus's quest to slay Medusa starts with Athene's counsel, followed by Hermes's aid, the deception of the Grey Sisters, assistance from the Nymphs, his encounter with Atlas, and ends with being pursued by the Gorgons after slaying Medusa.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quest of Perseus to slay Medusa unfolds through various significant events. A proper ordering of these events would reflect the narrative accurately. Here is the chronological order based on the excerpts provided:

1. Athene tells the story of how Medusa becomes a monster and tells Perseus how he can defeat Medusa.
