Chapter 19

Meanwhile, it took a long time for Gaia's son Typhon to be born. To completely recover the damage he received in the soul and form a new body, it took a lot of nourishment from Gaia. In the time, when the first Roman empire was spreading through Europe, Typhon was born.

Typhon was the God of Monsters, the sky, and vengeance.

When Typhon became an adult, he invaded Olympus and easily overwhelmed Zeus, cutting the god into pieces. His might completely scarred the gods, including his so-called sister Athena.

Typhon did not care about Athena at all, as he considered that in her greed for power, she completely forgot about her family still in Zeus' stomach.

The gods from Olympus, except Hades, which was not present, and Hestia who received her nephew warmly as she always received guests; fled to Egypt taking an animal form.

Due to Alexander the Great recent conquest of Egypt, the Egyptian pantheon did not take a liking to the presence of the Greek gods in their land.

To make it worse, the relationship between the pantheon was already bad, because the Greeks considered the Egyptian pantheon, which does not have a primordial as inferior, and had moked them for it several times.

Isis was a major goddess in ancient Egyptian religion whose worship spread throughout the Greco-Roman world. Isis was known for resurrecting her slain brother and husband, the divine king Osiris, and production and protection of his heir, Horus.

She was believed to help the dead enter the afterlife as she had helped Osiris, and she was considered the divine mother of the pharaoh, who was likened to Horus.

She was the goddess of wives and mourners and a mother goddess. Also, she was the goddess of kingship and protection of the kingdom, magic, wisdom, sky, and cosmos. Cosmos due to her being taken as a universal goddess capable of influencing the entire cosmos.

There were several powerful beings in reality to were actually influenced by her. So her influence was mostly limited to the Egypian cosmos.

She pretended to take the disguised Greek gods as animals and put a magical animal collar into each of the gods' necks.

Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, Apollo, Artemis, Hermes, Athena, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Ares, and Dionysus became Isis prisoners.

Hephaesthus's divinity was considered very useful by the Egyptians, so they kept the god as a prisoner but made a deal, in which the god would produce weapons for them in exchange for a position in the Egyptian court.

The Egyptians planned to use Apollo and Artemis as nourishment for the divinities of Ra and Khonsu, respectively. But their mother Leto, begged Gaia to help her get her children back.

So Gaia, through her son Tiphon pressured the Egyptian pantheon to set the two gods free. The Egyptians sold these two hostages back to Tiphon, which made them return to their godly position. Tiphon used the heavy reparation Olympus paid to retrieve the two gods as a justification to remove their seats from Olympus.

Poseidon was sad to discover that his family had not forgotten his mishaps, so neither his wife nor son tried to retrieve him.

Egyptians were not willing to return Hephaestus and Typhon was not interested in recovering the other gods, so the gods would stay for eternity as members of Isis's divine Zoo.

Under Typhon's rule, the divine seats on Olympus were reconfigured. Dionysus's seat was returned to the previous owner Hestia. Poseidon's seat was given to his son Triton, who became the new king of the sea. Hera seat was given to Typhon's wife, Echidna. Echidna was a monster, half-woman, and half-snake, who lived alone in a cave.

She was the mother of many of the most famous monsters of Greek myth, the ones before Typhon's birth were born from her alone though.

She was the daughter of the sea goddess Ceto and the sea god Phorcys.

Apollo's seat was given to the primordial goddess of Dawn Eos and the primordial goddess of the day Hemera.

Artemis's seat was given to the primordial goddess of the night Nyx. Demeter seat was given to Gaia.

Ares's seat was given to one of Typhon's sons with Echidna, Lernaean Hydra. Aphrodite's seat was given to her son Eros.

Athena's seat was given to Typhon's daughter Scylla. Hermes and Hephaestus were a bit tricky for Typhon, who was not sure for whom to give them.

He ended up giving Hephaestus seat to Aristaeus. Aristaeus was the god of useful arts, such as bee-keeping and cheese-making, olive-growing, herding, and hunting. He was a rustic god, a god of the countryside and pastoral places. It was the closest he could get from Hephaestus as the Greeks have no other forging god.

Hermes' seat was given to Peitho, which was the Greek goddess of seduction, charming speech, and particularly of persuasion.

Meanwhile, a talk I had with Prometheus about the solar system ended up with me being worshiped as the God of the Planet Uranus, by the moon humans. With this, I gained a weak Uranus divinity.

Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun and is a gaseous cyan ice giant. Most of the planet is made of water, ammonia, and methane in a supercritical phase of matter, which in astronomy is called 'ice' or volatiles.

The planet's atmosphere has a complex layered cloud structure and has the lowest minimum temperature out of all the Solar System's planets.

The extreme pressure and temperature deep within Uranus may break up the methane molecules, with the carbon atoms condensing into crystals of diamond that rain down through the mantle like hailstones.

This phenomenon is similar to diamond rains that are theorized by scientists to exist on Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune.

Because of this, I could use my divinity to produce a very cold ice power and diamonds.

To make good use of my divinity, I cut a whole root out of my true body and used my divinity to teleport it to Uranus. It was time to claim another abandoned territory.
