When Cronus was freed from his prison in Tartarus, it is said that he accepted his position as the king of the Elysian Islands, home of the blessed dead with humble dignity. But secretly he plotted.

Ares, god of war, had always eyed the throne of his father with cautious ambition. The only thing greater than his bloodlust and the love he had of women was that lust that silently grew in his heart over the one thing he knew he could never truly have.

Not until the opportunity presented itself. And Cronus was only too happy to supply that.

Plotting and scheming, he stood behind as Ares raised his forces, and they, together with the ruling Titan brothers of old, toppled the rule of almighty Zeus and imprisoned those who had stood in their way down in Tartarus. Those who helped them fight, however, were rewarded. There was nothing to stop the titans' rule. No one could stand in their way now.

But fate would turn against those who had supported the cause of the titans, as well. Gentle Rhea had acted before, and she would act again to protect her progeny and those who had come from them. Secretly, with help of the Fates, she freed the gods, placing them in mortal bodies, having them born into mortal families with mortal parents. And when word spread to those gods who had fought with the titans, she sent them all to the mortal plane as well.
