In the beginning there was Chaos, after a millennia of life, Chaos grew bored of the empty of the empty space around him, so he created the primordials. He made Gaea, the earth, and Ouranos, the sky. When Chaos saw the earth. He thought it looked a little bland and empty. So, next he created Pontus and Thalassa to be the sea and they were husband and wife. He also created Nyx and Erebus as primordial of night and darkness respectively, and after they were also married. After that was Hemera and Aether as the Primordials of light and upper air respectively and they were married as well. He also created Chronus the primordial of time and Ananke the Primordial of fate and the fates the gods of fate. Last but not least was Tartarus as primordial of the Pit. That was how the story of the gods began.
