As you all know, I was not born here, nor do I know of what tribe I am of. But, lo these past several years I have treked along the beautiful blue sea, and traversed the great mountains, and have had the chance to speak to other tribes along the way. They have talked of a great group of gods. Zeus is the leader of these gods, and he is quite a tempermental. He came to lead them when he and his brothers and sisters, (Hera, Posiedon,Demeter, Hades, & Hestia), did overthrow their Father Cronus. It is believed that Cronus ate his children (except Zeus, Cronus was tricked by his wife, Rhea, into thinking a rock was Zeus) to prevent such an overthrow. Zeus did then get Cronus to drink a potion that caused him to cough up his other children, then Zeus lead his brothers and sisters in a war against Cronus and his siblings (the Titans), and Zeus did overthrow and take control of the Heavens.
Zeus then drew lots with his brothers Poseidon and Hades. Zeus won the draw and became the supreme ruler of the gods. He is lord of the sky, the rain god. His weapon is a thunderbolt which he hurls at those who displease him. He is married to Hera, his sister, but has had many affairs. Hera is Queen of the gods and god of marriage and married women. Poseidon is god of the sea, and the second most powerful of the gods. Hades is god of the underworld, and ruler of the dead. Hestia is goddess of the home. Hera is Zeus's wife. Demeter is goddess of the harvest and the earth, and lives on the earth, not the heavens.
All these gods live on Mount Olympus, in the heavens. They are joined by other gods there - Ares, the son of Zeus & Hera, is god of War; Athena is the daughter of Zeus (she sprang full grown in armor from his forehead, thus has no mother), she is goddess of the city, agriculture, and handicrafts and she only fights to protect the homeland; Apollo and his twin sister, Artemis, are children of Zeus and Leto, they are the sun and moon gods, respectively; Aphrodite, she may have sprung up in the sea from the castrated testicals of Uranus, she is the goddess of love; Hermes is the son of Zeus and Maia, he is the messenger god; Hephaestus, he is the son of Zeus and Hera and the husband of Aphrodite, he is ugly and lame, he is the smith and armorer of the gods, and god of fire.
Now to creation. There first was Chaos, nothing but void. From Chaos came five "elements": Gaea, Mother Earth, Tartarus, the Underworld, deep within the Earth, Erebus, the Darkness of Tartarus, Eros, the Power of Love and Night, the Darkness. Gaea had a son Uranus, who she later had children with including Cronus, Zeus's father.
Very interesting tales of these gods and how they control the world we live in. They are amazing. I hope you all beleive my tales and join me in praising these gods, so that we are not smited from the earth.
And we should especially pray to mighty Poseidon who created the squid, that we love so much.
May the power of Poseidon and all the gods of Olympus be with His Grace, Togas, and all of us in Espana.
