Kaos

In the time before time…..there was nothing, Kaos. Kaos is the first being to ever exist. Both a deity and a thing, it was all encompassing and was the space between the heavens and later, earth.

From out the Kaos came 'The Primordials'.

First generation of gods and goddesses. Deities that represented the fundamental forces and physical foundations of the world, personifications of places or abstract concepts.

Aether, the protogenos of the mists of light which fill the upper zones of air. His element lay beneath the arch of heaven's dome, but high above the airs of the mortal realm.

Ananke, The Protogeonos of inevitability, compulsion and necessity. She was the mate of Khronos and like him was an incorporeal, serpentine being who twisted circling around the whole of creation.

Khronos, The Protogenos of time. He was a three-headed, incorporeal being with serpentine tail, who circled the whole of creation, entwined with his consort Ananke.

Nyx, The Protogenos of night, Nyx drew the dark mists of her consort, Erebus, across the heavens at night, cloaking the bright light of the heavenly aether. Her anthropomorphic form was of a woman clothed in star-spangled mantle.

Erebus, The Protogenos of the mists of darkness. His dark element was sunk into the hollows of the earth, and encircled the dismal realm of the underworld.

Eros, The Protegonos of generation. He was also known as Phanes or Protogonos. He was one of the first beings to emerge at creation, and caused the universe to procreate.

Pontos, The Protogenos of the sea. He sprung from the Earth at the beginning of creation, when the elements of the universe were set in their proper order.

Tartaros, The Protogenos of the great stormy pit which lay beneath the roots of the earth. He was the anti-heaven: just as the dome of heaven arched high above the earth, Tartarus arched beneath her.

Gaia, The Protogenos of the earth. Mother Earth emerged at the beginning of creation to form the foundation of the universe.

Ouranos, The Protogenos of the solid dome of heaven, whose form stretched from one horizon to the other. He sprung forth from Gaea the Earth at the beginning of creation.

And so began the first age. During this time, many offspring was made from Gaea. Millions of years of procreation had made their lives filled with many different primordial children.

As such with time, all things must come to an end. And while primordials cannot die, that does not mean they cannot be harmed.

——

From Gaea, the Titans had sprung forth. Beautiful and powerful in everyway, they had instantly cemented themselves as powerful figures. While not as strong as the primordials, that did not stop one Titan from severing his father.

Cronos, the Titan of Agriculture and youngest of the titans had removed his own father from the throne of leadership and planted himself as the earths new ruler. Thus bringing in the second age.

But his reign was not one of sunshine and rainbows, he had imprisoned his siblings and cousins into Tartaros, just like his father had done, similarly angering Gaea the way her husband had.

He ruled with an iron fist and terrorized his subjects, Humans. That was….until the time for retribution would be upon him.

Rhea had done it again. She gave birth to children, a joy of hers. When she gazed upon them for the first time, she was shocked.

"Twins?" Never before had a thing been done. The first she took into her giant hand was the eldest. From his body she could sense the aura of the black, deep darkness. The abyss where all (mortal) things would go in the end.

And henceforth she named him- "Hades…my little dark prince." She squealed in delight at another child. His skin was pale as his hair was color draining black.

She turned her attention to her other child, the younger twin and took him into her other hand and brought him close. From him she could feel…..finality, purpose, intrigue and the plucking of something great. And this she proclaimed him- "Aemond my fateweaver."

She observed his little scruff of black hair. She watched as it leisurely cascaded in the air, as if gravity was not holding it down.

'The bender of order.' The giantess thoughts warped around her head as she stared him in his eyes. They reflected the galaxy, as if a pool of constellations and galactic bodies made their home in his vision tools.

"Truly, you two are special…as is my others." She trailed of sadly, thinking of her daughters. Taken from her, forcefully. Flooding of rage entered her mind at the thoughts but they retreated from the hordes of fear coming from her.

"ȒĤĘĀ! ŴĤĘȒĘ ĀȒĘ ӍŶ ƇĤĬŁƉȒĘŇ!?" A familiar voice roared out. Once again, fear overloaded her body, locking her in place.

He had found her. Her husband. Cronos, Titan of Agriculture, King of the Titans and her husband had discovered her.

"ŶŌȔ ĤĬƉ ƑȒŌӍ ӍĘ!?" He bellowed out, rage filled the atmosphere as he reached for the twin boys. Rhea tried to resist but could not, for she faced the strongest (not physically) Titan.

He picked them up, and with a flick of his wrist, flung his own wife away into a pillar. "PLEASE, NO, HAVE MERCY!" Rhea pleaded helplessly watching as her first sons were swallowed whole.
