The Titan King
"To Kronos, Fumigation from Storax. Eternal father, mighty Titan, hear, great sire of gods and men, whom all revere; endued with various counsel, pure and strong, to whom increase and decrement belong. Hence matter's flowing forms through thee that die, by thee restored, their former place supply [reincarnation]. The world immense in everlasting chains, strong and ineffable thy power contains; father of vast eternity, divine, O mighty Kronos, various speech is thine; blossom of earth and of starry skies, husband of Rhea, and Prometheus wise. Obstetric power and venerable root, from which the various forms of being shoot; no parts peculiar can thy power enclose, diffused through all, from which the world arose. O best of beings, of a subtle mind, propitious hear, to suppliant prayers inclined; the sacred rites benevolent attend, and grant a blameless life, a blessed end [passage after death to Elysion (Elysium)]."
- Orphic Hymn to Kronos from Theoi
-----------------
The Usurper, King of the Titans is known as the Devourer of the gods, his children in modern times but what if something changed that? What if Kronos became someone different in a very different world, or is it a different timeline? Someone much better than the original. This Kronos will be our protagonist and he'll be changing a few things about history. He doesn't know why he's reincarnated or if he's the only one. He's gonna try to figure it all out but he won't be wasting this opportunity at another life either and he'll do anything and everything to protect his family from the hands that hold him.
(This will be my second story and first novel. It'll be a bit slow-paced at first but it should pick up later on.)
