It is a myth. The website said mythological goddess. That gave me the clue, it is a myth.

In order to help you with your question fact and Myth's are the same thing. But there are fables that are not based on facts like myth's are. Also many, many people do have the tendecy to confuse the two. So here here goes the truth: Myth's are somethings that really happen in the reality of mankind but the truth about them seem to have been lost to mankind for all times. As for fables they come from the imagination of mankind or from the mis-understanding of myth's by mankind..............

tried to access the site but was blocked from where I am so can't say for certain. but would guess a myth although behind almost every myth and/or legend there may be a small amount of truth.

Exactly what Deputy said.
Its like saying, for example, the story of Jesus is not true because we were not there to see it happen, so is it a Myth or truth? If the legend/story survives for thousands upon thousands of years their is some truth to it all.

Sounds like something out of H.P. Lovecraft's Shadows of Innsmouth. Perhaps she is a follower of Dagon a servant of the great sleeping Cthulu

all legends, myths, folklore - have some basis of truth / fact to them regardless of how far out of proportion they have been exagerated upon or added to !
