When Mother Earth discovered what had happened to her three sons she was beside her self in despair.
"There is no way I can get them out of The Hidden Place,"she cried,"someone must be brave enough to defy Ouranos!"
But among the cyclops and Titan's none dared to go against their all powerful father.
Except for one.
His name was Cronos,the youngest of all the children of Earth and Sky.
"I will do what you others dare not,"he told his family in secret counsel one day when Heaven was out hunting a stag in the Elysian Fields."Our father has become a tyrant and that is anathema to the God's!"
So this the bravest among the first God's set out to topple his father from the Throne of Heaven.
Gaea gave him a scythe she fashioned out of flint to fight him with.
"Face him not openly,"she bade him,"but lay in wait underneath the sea.Rely on trickery for he is too powerful to fight hand to hand.And then free your brothers from the Pit."
Cronos hid beneath the emerald waves of the Ocean waiting for his wicked father to return from the hunt.Ouranos could be heard from far away,laughing and singing gaily.He was accompanied by his retinue of fish people and those who lived among the stars.
When Sky passed above his hiding place the young Titan struck out with the flint weapon, cutting off his father's genitals and blood intermingled with the waters of the sea.And that's why today coral from the deeps are stained red.
