===============================================

Kronos and Rhea finally got married and had their first child. It was a girl, her name was Hestia. She was smaller than any Titan but she was heavier on perfectly proportioned. Her eyes radiated intelligence that of which a newborn should not have. She radiated power. With Kronos's affinity with time, he could envision what his daughter would look like when she was older. She would be smaller than a Titan but capable of great things. She would surpass any Titan at whatever she chose to do. Hestia was like an improved version of the Titans - Titan 2.0, the next big thing. She wasn't even a Titan at all. She was a Goddess - the first member of an entirely new branch of immortal evolution. Looking at her Kronos felt like an outdated cell phone staring at the new model. He knew his days were numbered.

===============================================

His proud papa face faded. This child could not be left to live lest the prophecy of Ouranos come true. Panic filled him with adrenaline as a opened his mouth so wide it should've been impossible and gobbled his newborn daughter whole. As per her motherly instincts, Rhea freaked displaying her nature as the Titan of motherhood. However, Hestia was not dead after all, immortals can't die by normal means so she lived on inside her father's gut swimming for years.

=================================================

After enough time had passed, he decided to try again. Kronos was testing Ouranos's curse. He wanted to see whether his next child would be a Titan or a too strong and too perfect God. So Rhea had another baby - a little girl even cuter than the first. Rhea named her daughter Demeter. Rhea hoped that because she was so adorable that maybe, just maybe Kronos wouldn't be driven by the curse.

====================================================

Kronos took Demeter in his arms and knew right away she was another all too perfect Goddess. She glowed with an aura even more powerful than Hestia's. She was trouble with a capital t. This time he didn't hesitate he opened his jaws and gobbled her up. Poor Rhea was completely devastated. 'The next child would be better,' he promised. 'No more swallowing babies!'

======================================================

The third kid? Was also a girl. Rhea named her Hera, and she was the least Titan-ish and most Godly yet. Rhea was indeed the Great Mother. IIn fact, she was a little to good at it. Every child she had was better and more powerful than the last. Kronos didn't take to little Hera. Rhea didn't want to give Rhea to Kronos but it was Natural Law that the Father would be first to hold the child. According to Themis - Titan of Law. There was also a natural law against cannibalism but Themis was to afraid to mention that to Kronos. And so Rhea mustered up her courage and strode into the throne room with her bundle of joy in hands. 'My lord, may I present your daughter, Hera'. GULP.

========================================================

This time she didn't throw a fit because she was too numb with pain and misery and disbelief. She had married a pathological liar who was also a murderer and a cannibal baby-eater. could things get worse? Oh, wait he was also the king of the cosmos with lots of powerful henchmen. Yeah, things were worse.

=========================================================

Two more times she gave birth to perfect, lovely god babies. The fourth child was the first boy named Hades. Rhea hoped Kronos would let him live because every dad needs a son to play ball with right? Nope. Down the hatch, you go. The fifth child was another boy Poseidon. Same story. GULP.

===========================================================

At this point, Rhea had fled the palace. She wailed and screamed and didn't know what to do. She went to her brothers and sisters, her nieces and nephews, anyone who would listen. She pleaded for help. The other Titans were either too scared of Kronos (like Themis), or they worked for Kronos (like Hyperion) and they told her to stop whining.

============================================================

Finally, she went to her sister Phoebe at the oracle of Delphi, but sadly even the oracle had no advice for her. Rhea ran to the meadows and wept her pain away. Suddenly, she heard whispering from the earth. It was the voice of her mother - Gaia, who was supposed to be in slumber. However, even in her dreams the Earth Mother couldn't stand to see one of her daughters this upset.

'𝓦𝓱𝓮𝓷 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓪𝓻𝓮 𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓭𝔂 𝓽𝓸 𝓭𝓮𝓵𝓲𝓿𝓮𝓻 𝔂𝓸𝓾𝓻 𝓷𝓮𝔁𝓽 𝓬𝓱𝓲𝓵𝓭,' Gaia's voice whispered from the ground, '𝓖𝓸 𝓽𝓸 𝓒𝓻𝓮𝓽𝓮 𝓽𝓸 𝓰𝓲𝓿𝓮 𝓫𝓲𝓻𝓽𝓱! 𝓨𝓸𝓾 𝔀𝓲𝓵𝓵 𝓯𝓲𝓷𝓭 𝓱𝓮𝓵𝓹 𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓮! 𝓣𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓬𝓱𝓲𝓵𝓭 𝔀𝓲𝓵𝓵 𝓫𝓮 𝓭𝓲𝓯𝓯𝓮𝓻𝓮𝓷𝓽! 𝓗𝓮 𝔀𝓲𝓵𝓵 𝓼𝓪𝓿𝓮 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓸𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓼!
