In her wrathful incarnation, known as Erinys, she wore the Gorgon Medusa's visage around her neck, and by a Cretan named Jason she was the mother of the child called Ploutos, or wealth. During her wanderings, she was taken in by King Celeus, whose son Demophon she failed to make immortal, but more famously, she walked the earth for nine days with two burning torches until Helios revealed to her that Hades had taken her daughter.
