Description

Cronus was now the lord of the universe. He sat on the highest mountain and ruled over heaven and earth with a firm hand. The other gods obeyed his will and early man worshiped him. This was man's Golden Age. Men lived happily and in peace with the gods and each other. They did not kill and they had no locks on their doors, for theft had not yet been invented.

Cronus was one of those paranoid people, I guess. He ate all of his children because he was afraid they would overthrow him. Rhea (his wife, a titaness) his Zeus (one of his children) in a cave, and gave him a rock in baby clothes to eat instead. You would have thought that Cronus would have noticed he was eating a rock, and not his child, but I guess he wasn't a good father or something. Eventually Zeus made Cronus throw up his siblings (Hestia, Demeter, Hades, Hera, Poseidon) and then they overthrew him and cut him up threw him into Tartarus. I guess Cronus wouldn't win "Father of the Year" award.
Anyway, Cronus can be spelled like "Kronos" or "Cronus", just so you know. I only spelled it "Cronus" because that's how they spell it in my Greek Myths Book.
If you're wondering about the name, I called it .:Time and Space:. because Cronus was lord of the Universe. So, Space. And then Time because in the Percy Jackson books, he could control time =P
Anyway, new releases...coming soon is Zeus (maybe!) and the dog of the Underworld, Cerberus.
Please, comment and fav if you like! And tell me what to do better next time ;)
