CLASH of the TITANS
Prelude
MYTHOS
The oldest stories ever told are written in the stars…and it all began with Chaos. A time before the birth of Man and Beast, when Titans ruled the cosmos with iron fists. These elemental entities were powerful and their hands shaped the very fabric of the universe—but their reign would soon come to an end.
…
It would end at the hands of their own children: Sisters Demeter, Hestia, Hera, and the brothers Poseidon, Hades, and Zeus. This new generation of immortals were different. They were bright, beautiful, ambitious. These children of Cronos rose up against their brutal forbears and gathered upon the peak of Olympus and prepared.
…
The Titans, led by Cronos who fathered his new enemies, bade their time on Mount Othrys, waiting for their children to make the first move.
…
The two Immortal armies fought for ten years. The Earth shook for ten years. The fires burned the land for ten years. So is the way that gods settle their arguments…with the flooding of rivers, forming of valleys and the raising of mountains.
…
The Titans were strong but Zeus was cunning. He was able to trick his brother Hades to venture into the Underworld and sacrifice his own flesh into the dark realm of Tartarus and unleash a terrible creature. Son of the Titans Echidna and Typhon…The Kraken.
…
The creature devastated their mighty foes and in the end, the Elemental Titans were defeated and the Gods of Olympus took their place as overlords of the Earth.
…
Zeus became king of the heavens, ruler of all under the skies. Poseidon, became king of the seas, commander of the tides and the earth that quakes. And Hades, tricked by Zeus, was bound to the dominion of the Underworld to rule in darkness and in misery.
…
Would they rule this world justly?
…
Would they rule well?
…
Well, they are children of Titans after all…
