Poseidon, one of the most powerful gods ruled the sea, created earthquakes, and was the god of horses, much prized in ancient society. Zeus, king of the gods, ruled from his throne on Mount Olympus, home of the immortals, often using his symbols of the thunderbolt and eagle to warn or encourage mortals. She was one of the most vengeful and spiteful gods, punishing women who lay with her husband and any subsequent children. He made her fall in love with the bull, which eventually led to the birth of the half-man half-bull creature called the Minotaur. Hera, sister and wife of Zeus, and queen of the Gods, was the protector of marriage and women. Cronus hid until Uranus came to lie with his mother then leapt out and sliced off his father's genitals, which fell into the sea. The two fought and upon defeat Cronus was forced to release Zeus's siblings, starting the war between the gods and the Titans. The underworld had several guardians and trials, making it difficult for the dead and near impossible for the living to enter. He also engaged in many affairs with mortal women, where he created the god Dionysus and many heroes like Perseus and Hercules, most of whom experienced the wrath of the jealous Hera. He shared his throne with his wife, Persephone, and the two were considered to be gods of fertility. Cronus married the Titan Rhea, who gave birth to most of the major gods. Elysium is akin to heaven, a peaceful place where the souls of heroes, demigods, and especially good mortals reside. Gaia, sick of having her children imprisoned made a great sickle that she gave to her son Cronus. Cronus, scared by a prophecy that his children would take his power, imprisoned them as soon as they were born, swallowing them whole. Hades, the oldest of the brothers ruled over the underworld where the spirits of the dead resided. Tartarus is very similar to Hell and contains not only the Titans, but also criminals who upset the gods who are tortured for eternity. Zeus married his sister Hera, who birthed the gods Ares and Hephaestus. When Cronus came to eat his son, Rhea fed him a stone instead, tricking the Titan. He was also a protector of the home and strangers, meaning being a bad host could land you in deep trouble. Past Charon lay Cerberus, the fabled three-headed dog who guards the gates of the underworld. The Titans, defeated, were thrown into Tartarus, a prison deep within the underworld. Poseidon noticed, but instead of punishing Minos directly he decided to target his wife. One year, he withheld his favorite bull, a huge white animal. Uranus disliked his children and locked them deep within the earth. And so started the reign of the gods. Ultimately, the soul will reach the three judges of the underworld, who decide where it should go.
