MEDUSA: I'm the ancient underworld snake-deity of hypnotics, fool!

MR. AMLAN SATAN: Lady-deity, I'm merely a Slovak-Algerian Bostonian writer.

MEDUSA: You contact me with Ouija-incantation for 21st-Century Earth art?

MR. AMLAN SATAN: I'm merely curious about the legend of you as tragedy, deity.

MEDUSA: Tragedy?
MR. AMLAN SATAN: Yes, I've read of your lore as a beautiful woman mutated.

MEDUSA: I was incarcerated in spirit, but I was resurrected as sorceress, so?

MR. AMLAN SATAN: That's my concern; and I wish to liken you to a Camelot-mythos.

MEDUSA: Camelot, of English custom (kingdoms)...for what manner(s), fool?

MR. AMLAN SATAN: Simple and offbeat...the Lady of the Lake, snake-deity.

MEDUSA: The mythical water-dwelling faerie-woman of Excalibur sword-tell.

MR. AMLAN SATAN: You know of the myth/story, Medusa (Facebook-like)?

Amlan Satan invoked the spirit of Medusa with his 'fantastic' Ouija-board game to inquire of the snake-deity's premonition-IQ interest in a story-write concerning links between her, a tragic/damned antiheroine sorceress of obsession/hypnosis who was mutated into a snake-woman for prison, and the fabled English Camelot kingdom faerie-muse water-dwelling 'Lady of the Lake' (storied to have wielded the power/gift-wealth of the magical sword of Excalibur). Medusa at first didn't seem (at all) interested in being linked to the Lady of the Lake of water-and-sword storytelling, even for a precociously superstitions-curious modern (21st-Century Earth) Bostonian (Catholic!) writer like Mr. Amlan Satan...but he started to intrigue her...especially when he spoke of a cube-mirror 'toy' invocative of the reflection 'magic' of glassy surfaces like water and ice. Read on, friends (Selfie-like!).

MR. AMLAN SATAN: Think of this mirror-cube toy as a device for Selfie-variations fantasy image!

MEDUSA: You wish to gift me this image/toy for imagination that I'm the Lady of the Lake, fool.

MR. AMLAN SATAN: You said it, Medusa...and think of the value-hyperbole of the Selfie-variation.

MEDUSA: What's a mirror-cube toy for Selfie-daydreams offer me, snake-woman of hypnotics, fool?

MR. AMLAN SATAN: If I can fathom that "Medusa likens herself to the Lake-Lady with a cube...," it's art!

MEDUSA: You seek my permissions, then (Facebook-like).

MR. AMLAN SATAN: As a Bostonian-Catholic American superstition-writer, I link capitalism to bias.

MEDUSA: Selfie-like?

STORY_EXCERPT: "The Western (American) prince darted to a known body of water in the United Kingdom which was storied to have been a possible 'haven-hyperbole' area for the mystical Lady of the Lake, who had relations in Camelot with King Arthur, Sir Lancelot, and the wizard-counselor Merlin)...and when he started into the body of water (there!), he swore he saw the visage-face of the snake-head covered hypnosis-demon deity of the underworld (Medusa) who insisted that she was a 'manifestation' of the Lady of the Lake of Camelot (somehow)...and the prince had no-choice (now) but to conclude that the concept of Selfie-capitalism moved a mod-Earth 'prince' to states of surreal/subconscious self-image 'buzz' for fortune (or darkness)."
