Chapter 1 || Titan Takeover
After many millennia of peace, Gaea started to get cocky. Her husband, Ouranos, had thrown the Hecatoncheires and the Elder Cyclops into the Pit, causing Gaea to go crazy. Gaea started conspiring with her kids, the Twelve Titans, to overthrow her husband.
Perseus sat watching. The Primordials were good rulers, but their reign was coming to an end. Perseus knew this, being the Prota of End and all that, but he also knew that there was a new beginning. It might not be a good one, but another, better beginning was coming. All Perseus had to do was wait. Wait for the end of the Primordial Era, and the beginning of the Titan Era.
Gaea asked five of her children to help her. Four to hold down each arm and leg, and one to kill Ouranos. Kronos, the youngest of the Twelve Titans, volunteered to kill him. The female Titans soon excused themselves from the equation, leaving Hyperion, Iapetus, Koios, Krios, and Oceanus. Oceanus quickly left, leaving the other four to hold down Ouranos's arms and legs.
Gaea convinced Ouranos to come down to the planet, dubbed Earth, and their sons ambushed him. Each one held an arm or a leg. Kronos came in and, to put it nicely, chopped him up.
Perseus sat watching, and while Ouranos was being chopped, devised a system. If an Immortal fades, they are sent to the realm of the faded, unless they are a Primordial, then their essence is sent to the Void, to rule for eternity. A different way to put it would be that when a Primordial fades, they are essentially banished from the Universe and have to reside in the Void.
Ouranos's essence was sent to the Void, to rule for eternity, but before he faded, he told Kronos, "One day your child shall overthrow you, just as you did to me!" Kronos, as the killer of Ouranos, called himself the new Ruler of the Universe. What Kronos didn't know was that Perseus was influencing fate. Perseus was the one that wove the threads of the Universe millennia before it came to pass. Perseus knew, the moment he came into existence, that Ouranos would one day fall at the hands of Kronos. He knew that it was the end of Ouranos's reign, and the beginning of Kronos's.
For a time, there was peace. Kronos took the title of Ruler of the Universe, and Titan of Time and Agriculture. Titans started getting married, having kids. Kronos himself got married to Rhea, the Titaness of Motherhood.
There was peace, but soon, Rhea became pregnant with a child. When that child was born, Kronos, remembering what Ouranos told him, swallowed the girl, named Hestia.
Soon, another child came, this one named Hera, but the outcome was the same. It was the same for Demeter, Hades, and Poseidon. Soon Rhea came to realize that no matter how many children she had, they would all be swallowed.
Perseus decided that it was time to stop watching from the sidelines and traveled onto Earth. Perseus kept his black hair and green eyes, but he dimmed his power to that of a mediocre Titan, or a Titan that was not the strongest nor the weakest, yet somewhere in between.
"My dear Rhea," Perseus intoned behind her. Rhea jumped.
"Who are you Titan," She demanded.
"I am only a humble servant, wishing to be of service."
"What is the service that you can grant me?"
"I know that the next child you will have will be the one that overthrows your husband. The end of his reign is coming. The Era of the Gods will begin."
"What is it that you wish for in return?"
"I only wish for the chance to help you and your children that are hidden in your husband's gut."
