History: (Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe I#4 – Gorgon entry (fb) – BTS) – Milena grew up in Attilan, where she worked as an archivist. She married Korath, an architect, and they had one son, Gorgon. Korath's brother, Agon, became the king and married Rynda.
(Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Fantastic Four 2005 – Inhumans entry - BTS) – Agon and Rynda convinced their siblings and spouses in the Royal Family to expose their children to Terrigenesis early, resulting in a generation of super-powered children. Gorgon, the son of Korath and Milena, developed hooved legs that could generate seismic shakes when stomped. Gorgon went on to lead the Inhuman military in time.
(Inhumans Special#1 (fb) – BTS) – Maximus seized the throne after causing a rebellion of Alpha Primitives then he had Milena held captive to ensure his power. She was placed under the city with dozens of other hostages, all under armed guard. The guards then surrounded Korath.
(Inhumans Special#1) – The guards held Korath captive and Korath yelled out to Gorgon that they had Milena as well. Maximus showed Gorgon, Karnak, Crystal and Black Bolt the hostages and Gorgon initially attacked until a guard shot and killed two hostages. Gorgon and the Royal Family (Black Bolt, Medusa, Crystal, Triton, Karnak) were soon exiled for months and during that time, Korath sought to stage a break out but he was shot. After the exile, Gorgon returned to Attilan, finding Cyra and Mikon on guard and defeating them. Gorgon was taken in to see Milena, who embraced him and told him about Korath's death then the guards shot Gorgon with a stun gun, warning him Milena could also die.
Months later, Gorgon and the others overthrew Maximus and Milena was released from her confinement.

In Gorgon's initial entry in the Official Handbook, it was stated that both of his parents died in the original battle with the Trikon but later stories revealed that Korath was killed during Maximus' control of the city and that Milena was released alive at that time.
