Creusa appears in Greek mythic narratives as the daughter of King Creon of Corinth. In the sequence of events following the Argonauts' voyage, Jason abandons Medea (his earlier consort) and takes a new bride in Corinth — identified in many sources as Creusa/Glauce. Her engagement or marriage to Jason is arranged within the Corinthian royal context and functions narratively as the political/marital alliance that triggers Medea’s revenge.
Classical and summary sources provided do not supply a physical description of Creusa beyond her social identity as a Corinthian princess and daughter of Creon. Literary references treat her chiefly as a bride figure and royal woman in the story; the excerpts contain no details of clothing, features, age, or iconographic attributes.
The supplied materials attribute no supernatural powers or special abilities to Creusa. She is consistently presented as a mortal human whose primary narrative role is that of rival bride and victim: Jason's proposed or actual marriage to her provokes Medea, who employs witchcraft in many versions to kill Creusa. Creusa herself does not act with extraordinary agency in the provided summaries.

Jason
Jason (Ancient Greek: Ἰάσων, Iásōn) is a mortal hero of Greek myth, leader of the Argonauts whose quest for the Golden Fleece establishes his place in the heroic age. He is depicted as a prince of Iolcos, son of Aeson, and husband of the sorceress Medea.

Medea
Medea is a mythic Greek woman of royal lineage associated with practiced pharmakeía (drugcraft) and ritual knowledge; in epic she functions as the helper who enables Jason's success, and in tragedy she becomes a transgressive avenger whose actions include murder. Sources present her variably as mortal with divine ancestry (granddaughter of Helios) and as a skilled worker in magical substances and rites often linked in literature to Hecate.
