MEDUSA'S TRAGIC ORIGIN STORY! (Fortnite Short Film)

[@Kaya__543]

Omg Montague is alive😭❤️ totally love what's happening between Hope and Jonsey❤️❤️❤️! Can't wait for the next episode 😂

[@RyuBlue]

Hey, everyone, Lead Writer here again! On behalf of the FortShorts team, I want to apologize for the delays in episodes, we plan on putting out the rest of the season as soon as we can. We're going to prioritize filming over the next couple of weeks, and are still dedicated to putting out a full 6-episode season, but we may end up having to release episodes into the next one and shortening that one to compensate. Thank you for understanding. I worked with fellow editor and writer PrtyProductive, who's studied Greek Mythology, on this one. Our take on Medusa's origin is meant to be a 'softened' version of the original story, and the idea to rewrite Medusa as a Sea Nymph was Prty's idea. Athena was known to the Greeks as one of the "Virgin Goddesses"- she and her followers practiced celibacy. When Medusa and Poseidon fooled around in her temple, it was a direct blasphemy against Athena. That's why she gave Medusa her stone gaze- to prevent men from ever looking at her again. Our Medusa was eventually able to control her curse, plus, certain helmets can protect against it, like the ones Perseus and the Minions of Olympus use. Medusa's Stone Gaze being removed by Pandora's Box is meant to be an explanation as to why she can't just use it in-game. But who knows, maybe it'll come back someday? 😉 Oh, and look who washed up on the beach at the end of the episode...could it be...?! One more thing- that temple that Medusa was fighting the guards in, anyone recognize it? :D The next main story episode will focus on Aphrodite- I hope you're all looking forward to it!

[@Sombra_76]

I actually don't know this place but I think it supposed to be Atlantis or maybe Olympus or something,and I was asking myself why the story wasn't accurate

[@Axocat29]

Uuh isn’t hope lesbian

[@Taynado]

I’m so glad Montague is alive

[@sakuraartz]

Fangirlin over Hope and Jones. I really hope they get together soon.

[@DeadnanPassdead]

Using aquaman for Poseidon’s original form is nice

[@RyuBlue]

Yeah, I was a little disappointed that we got a goofy good guy Slurp Poseidon, but I made do with what Fortnite gave us.

[@RandomFutbólFan]

⁠good little guy is cool

[@thelurker552]

15:17 lol Jonesy and Hope getting so shy about being a couple is cute I "Hope" they get together Yeah my puns are bad i know

[@guineapiggamer7717]

I don’t care how bad you think it is, but I was laughing historically at your pun!

[@1ShotNev_COCX]

Nah that crazy but true

[@RyuBlue]

I'm glad there are other people on board for the Hope+Jones ship! :D

[@MiidelMX]

​@@RyuBlueI "hope" nothing sus happens with them

[@guineapiggamer7717]

This has got to be one of my favorite episodes yet- Everything about it was great! The lighting, the cinematography, the script. I particularly loved the reference to lord of the rings!

[@RyuBlue]

Thanks so much! Please remember to like, favorite, and share the episode with others so we can get more views!

[@StrikerKeylord]

MONTAGUE IS ALIVEEE

[@NicholasFisher_KhFan]

Another great episode. Montague is alive always good to see. Curious to see what Artemis will do. And most exciting MIDAS though we still haven't seen him personally i know he will soon be here. PS thank you for reading the comments.

[@RyuBlue]

Thanks, we're working hard to make the entire season in the time we've got left!

[@AndroEnergenic]

MONTAGUE IS ALIVE!!!! LETS GO!!!! Ya know, i would imagine Midas and Montague talking to each other though, be interesting. BUT GREAT WORK YALL. THIS WAS AWESOME

[@NOTfriedMM2]

Fr bro

[@1ShotNev_COCX]

Where's Montague?

[@RyuBlue]

@@1ShotNev_COCX Did you watch the episode all the way to the end?

[@1ShotNev_COCX]

@@RyuBlue yea

[@1ShotNev_COCX]

Oh I seen it

[@FireboItplayz]

Something that would be funny is that if montague didn’t turn off the diamond form and Artemis was aiming at him at the end so the glare on the snipers would shine on Montague and cause I light SOOOO bright that it blinds Artemis and makes her screams abnormally

[@FortFilmsYT]

Question for Montague: How does the diamond amulet work? Do you turn into diamonds? Or are you encased in it like armour? Also if your amulet is taken off when transformed are you stuck in diamond form?

[@Sankorry.0]

Question for Nolan chance:did you know about Dr doom and the avengers return to Fortnite?

[@RyuBlue]

We reached 40k views in 4 days, not bad!

[@valduffy8891]

Montague: pls help Artemis: Today is Opposite Day

[@zarrialynnfelix4635]

Love your videos and question for Midas: Are you and Montague siblings because you look so much alike!

[@JayGames0212]

Question for Ares The God of War What is your relationship with Aphrodite? Btw Do you know Kratos?

[@ashantiwoods6382]

Question for Jules . Do you miss your dad Midas ?

[@MattDoesMinecraft_Plays]

A Question for Yoda I Have, a back bling in Fortnite, you now are, your thoughts on it I ask for?

[@TinTinYT]

[@RyuBlue]

Medusa actually referred to Jones as Hope's "Mate".

[@MiidelMX]

5:31 hope really wanted to see that

[@subtestPW]

question for lorenzo: are you renzo the destoyer

[@kordelkaplanjr.-sk3jk]

I don’t think so just because he has the same name

[@subtestPW]

@@kordelkaplanjr.-sk3jk lorenzo has an edit style with the exact same legs, belt and chain and renzo

[@JackTrahanOfficial]

[@RyuBlue]

[@KADOTHORNE24]

Question for kado thorne:how do you fell about midas return? Also i am a alternate version of u

[@magenstaffarts]

Question for Montague: would you ever willingly join SHADOW as an agent of Midas if given the chance?

[@theagencyspy]

Question for Zeus what will you do if kratos tries to kill you again

[@nitrozconcepts]

Question For Midas: Can you really control your powers?

[@SE_Starzz]

I love the relationship between Hope and Jones, this episode had a lot to unpack here and I'm so glad Montague is back!! What if Midas and Montague meet?? 😯

[@RyuBlue]

Thanks! Hope and Jones seem to be the main characters for this chapter so I'm so glad they're still relevant enough that I can explore their relationship more! Stay tuned, things are gonna get interesting...

[@JeyUsoYEEEEET9029]

Yo I hope this video gets a thousand million views

[@RyuBlue]

I'd settle for 1 million like on our Hope Origin video!

[@AeroHybrid]

Thanks for answering my question Fish Thicc lol 😂 Ah I was close enough there but yeah cousins seems legit 🐟

[@GalacticStingerGaming]

What are the odds that Kratos makes an appearance🤔👀

[@Begunbark]

You should make a video with Ares fighting Kratos at some point :D

[@Murder0drones]

Yass Ma girl hope AND BONESJ

[@RyuBlue]

[@yttryff6159]

A lot of lore would be missing if we only get a few episodes every season

[@RyuBlue]

We are planning on releasing 4 more episodes. We will likely end up releasing some episodes during the next season.

[@msn64man1]

That’s the Midas touch

[@NonvusGodoftheGreatBeyond]

I think Ovid's story was the the true one

[@candyshadow1235]

[@StylishLeaf]

the season is over in a few weeks and only two episodes so far

[@RyuBlue]

Yeah, we apologize for the delays. We're going to prioritize filming over the next couple weeks so that we can get all the footage we need before next season starts. This season is likely going to extend into the next one.

[@10pieceMCDeku]

I hope that hope is staying next season

[@RyuBlue]

Me, too! I love her character, I just hope (heh) that we can also get some variants of her in different outfits, too. Maybe summer/winter versions?

[@samirtelesev655]

Skye has referred to Meowscles as "Kitty Bro" before on our channel. Last time she said it was during out Halloween Episode in C4S4.

Here we go again!

[@ColezMann]

Dont tell me Artemis kills Montague🤦 FortShrots what are u guys doing The Society literally gets taken down by Zeus

[@RyuBlue]

Stay tuned and let us cook ;)

[@ColezMann]

​@@RyuBlueIdk, cause every time you say "Let us Cook" you always leave us with unanswered things

[@FortShorts]

That's because your viewing the story from 1 upload at a time. So of course not everything will be answered in one episode. But when the season get's finished you can go back and look at the story as whole. Don't make assumptions so soon😉

[@dewavona8700]
