Greek Mythology Creation Story 3-1 The Titans

Finally! The titans are here!  Also I got the time to write stuff. And I can get back to the mainline. It’s been a long time, so I’m gonna start with a recall. So last time we talked about how Gaia, the Earth mother, told her children to help assassinate their father (yeah, I know right, messed up).  Chronos and his brothers trapped Uranus, and Chronos was just about to kill him.

Chronos dropped his scythe, and Uranus howled in pain. He was chopped into pieces. Blood was spilled everywhere, like those cheap horror movies, but the blood of the gods is gold, and it is called ichor. The stuff was so powerful that later on, when no one was looking, creatures emerge from the blood. The blood mixed with the stones created three demons grandmothers with bat wings called the Furies, the spirits of Punishments. (Alecto (anger), Megaera (jealousy), and Tisiphone (avenger)). As soon as they were born, they immediately fled to the darkness of Tartarus.  Other drops of the blood fell on fertile soil, where they turned into the first satyrs (creatures who has a human upper body and goat legs who likes to eat tin cans), and the Meliae (the first seven nymphs who has inhuman powers). Most of the blood just splattered everywhere.

“Well done brothers,” Chronos grinned ear to ear.

“Oh my children, I am so proud, cookies for everyone!” beamed Gaia

Before the celebrations, Chronos threw the gross remains of Uranus into the sea, maybe because he resented his older brother Oceanus for not helping with the murder.

Now your gonna ask, so if the sky was killed, why can I still see the sky. My best explanation is that Chronos killed Uranus’s psychical form, so that Uranus can’t come to earth to claim kingship. He basically exiled him into the sky, so that he can only be a harmless dome above the world.

Anyways, Chronos returned to the valley and had a big celebration in his honor. He kept his promises and give his brothers four corners of the earth to rule.

He mustered a confident smile, though Uranus’s curse is already bothering him.

“My siblings toast, we have started a golden age!” And if you like killing, backstabbing, eternal torment, and cannibalism, then it is definitely a golden age.

Okay done. This one is more of a transaction episode.
