Deep with in the abyss of the Greek underworld there is an

island. The Elysium, otherwise known as the Elysian Fields.

The island was the final resting place for the souls of hero’s.
This island is known to be a paradise. There is a ruler of this
paradise, the Titan king Kronos or Cronus who also has
controls over the time. Kronos is said to be the son of heaven
(Uranus) and earth (Gaia).

Kronos overthrew his father Uranus, and sliced him up with a

sickle, it is said to be a symbolic separation of heaven and
earth. Kronos was scared that his own children might do the
same to him. So he ate them. Zeus was saved by Rhea
(Kronos’s wife) who hid him in Crete (a Greek island). And she
tricked Kronos into swallowing a stone wrapped in Children’s
clothing instead of Zeus.

When Zeus got older Gaia gave him poison to force Cronus
to throw up. Zeus led his brothers and sisters into battle to fight
the titans. They knew they would need armour, weapons, and
troops to win the war, so the three brothers, Zeus, Poseidon
and Hades, travelled to the Underworld to release the
Cyclopes. The Cyclopes were metal smiths. Cronus had
imprisoned them in Tartarus. The Cyclopes, grateful for their
release, made gifts for the brothers - thunderbolts for Zeus, a
trident for Poseidon, and a magic helmet that made the wearer
invisible for Hades.

The Olympians finally won when Hades, wearing his helmet

of invisibility crept up on Kronos, Poseidon pinned him down
with his trident, and Zeus rendered him unconscious by hitting
him with the thunderbolt. Once the battle was over with the
brothers threw Kronos into Tartarus. The brothers drew straws
to rule the heavens, the sea and the underworld. But Zeus
made the straws and tricked his brothers so he would rule over
the sky, but along with the sky he would rule over all the gods
and goddesses as well. Poseidon got the oceans, and Hades
drew the short straw, which was the underworld. And eventually
Zeus took Kronos out of Tartarus and made him rule over the
elysian fields
