Importance of Venti/Anemoi Thuellai

The venti (singular: ventus) are storm spirits that exist in both Greek and Roman mythology. The Greek name for them is anemoi thuellai. They can appear in different forms, but usually appear as winged, angel-like beings or as stormy horses. They are immortal, chaotic beings that cause frenzied winds. They are usually controlled by Aeolus, the master of the winds, but often escape and cause havoc. The venti attack the heroes at several points in this story, being controlled by Medea and later by Aeolus. In the final battle, Jason manages to harness and ride the strongest storm spirit, which has appeared in the form of a horse, and he uses it to dissolve all the other storm spirits.
