[Greek mythology] The fountain of youth

The current god-king Zeus is a very face-saving god. He pays great attention to his majesty and authority. Since he was born, the ambition of power has been planted in his heart, just like his father Cronus, the second-generation god-king of the Titans, He is ambitious.

The second generation of God King Cronus killed his father and seized power. When the first generation of God King Uranus was dying, he cursed angrily, "You will pay for what you have done. Soon, you will be punished by your own power just like me. The son overthrows."

And Zeus firmly believed that he would be the god who overthrew his father and won the throne of God. Winter and Hades won the victory and overthrew the regime of his father Cronus.

After winning the great victory in the Titan War, they saw that they were about to fight over the ownership of rights. At this time, Zeus and his brothers refused to give in to each other because of how to distribute the dominance of the world, and there were many contradictions.

At this time, Prometheus, who is full of wisdom, proposed a way. He proposed to determine the domination of the world by drawing lots.

The result of this lottery is of course self-evident!According to the results of the lottery, Zeus was assigned to the sky and became the king of gods, Poseidon was assigned to the sea and became the god of the sea, and Hades was assigned to the underworld and became the god of the underworld. As for the earth, the three brothers jointly controlled it through negotiation.

Zeus deceived Hades to say that the underworld is better than the heavens, and kicked Poseidon over. At this time, the power of Poseidon and Hades can no longer be compared with Zeus. It is really a fight, and we can only accept it. Their younger brother became the god king, and the three brothers were honored by Zeus who ruled the sky.

Zeus became the king of gods as he wished, and he would never allow anyone to destroy his rights. Zeus could become the king of gods, and there was another person who had a great influence on him, that is, Metis, the goddess of wisdom, Zeus's first wife.

In the process of overthrowing Cronus, Metis contributed a lot to Zeus and became the first queen of Zeus. She once gave Cronus a kind of vomiting medicine or wine, and Cronus As a result, Si vomited out the child he had swallowed, and has since been advising Zeus to seize the throne of God.

The second generation god king Cronus killed his father and seized power. The first generation god king Uranus once cursed that he would be overthrown by his own children when he was dying. Cronus was afraid of this, so he swallowed all his children into the stomach.

And Cronus once overthrew the rule of his father Uranus and rescued his miserable mother Gaia. He was the most beloved son of the goddess of the earth, Gaia, who hated Zeus and Metis very much. died his own son.

Therefore, when Metis was pregnant, Gaia once predicted that the son born to Metis, the goddess of wisdom, would, like his father, overthrow his father's rule and become the new king of heaven.

Zeus was afraid of Gaia's prophecy. He was afraid that Metis would give birth to a son stronger than himself, and Metis was already pregnant. He tricked Metis into swallowing her with sweet words.

Therefore, Poros, the god of opportunity and creation, who should have been born at this time, was not born. Metis was kept in Zeus' belly forever. Her wisdom was used by Zeus and became Zeus's thoughts and will forever.

No god can go against the will of Zeus. Artemis killed his family members to take the godhead, which has offended the majesty of his god-king. Even if Artemis is his beloved daughter, his majesty cannot be damaged.

There was silence in the banquet hall, Zeus, the king of gods, had a dark and incomprehensible face, and Hera, the queen of heaven, was expressionless, but she didn't say anything, she just looked at Leto, the mother of Artemis.

Leto seemed to want to say something, but with years of experience, how could she fail to see Zeus's mood at this time, wanted to say something to ease, but was afraid of offending Zeus even more, so she turned to her son Apollo for help.

Apollo comforted his weak mother, and whispered comfort in her ear, "It's okay, my dear mother, Artemis is my father's most beloved daughter, isn't she?" He carefully comforted his timid mother .

The situation is not optimistic. Zeus is not friendly to the sons who may take his position as the king of gods. Only Ares, the big, muscular and stupid father, can't understand their moody father.

Zeus only had a smile on his daughters who had no threat to his position as the god king, and they were just like playthings to pass the time, teasing and teasing when they were bored, and throwing them aside when they were bored, how sincere could they be?

Artemis is clever, sweet and beautiful, and has always been the most "loved" daughter of Zeus.

After the godhead is taken out, there is no point in staying in the world. Hebe and Artemis returned to Mount Olympus in the sky. All the gods were in the banquet hall of Olympus. Holding the silver bow, she ran in excitedly, and she couldn't wait to show off to her father.

"My great father and my loving mother, I, Artemis, won the victory!" Her face blushed slightly from excitement.

There was silence in the banquet hall, and Zeus stared at her with a meaning she couldn't understand, "Artemis..."

The author has something to say about Kronos, the second-generation king of the gods in ancient Greek mythology. He was originally the son of Uranus and Gaia, the first-generation god-king and queen-queen, and the youngest of the twelve Titan gods.

After overthrowing the brutal rule of his father Uranus, Cronus led the Golden Age in Greek mythology until he was overthrown by his own son Zeus.He and the rest of the Titans are mostly imprisoned in Tartarus, the underworld.

Prometheus, in Greek mythology, is one of the most intelligent gods, the earliest descendants of the Titans, whose name means "foresight". Prometheus not only created humans, but also brought fire to humans. Taught them a lot of knowledge and skills.

One of the ocean goddesses of Metis, the original goddess of wisdom, the first wife of Zeus
