In the 'Before Time', all was Chaos and Darkness nothing had the form of existence or a place to dwell. Mother Earth burst from this Chaos and sprang forth with lush grass and blue waters from the soil and cliffs of a New World, the universe was born and grown. Along with the simple beasts and the birds of the air were her first children, the hundred -handed ones. After these Giants came the master builders, the Cyclops of a Single-Eye, builders of massive walls and binders of the lands. Banished to far away from Thrace, some to Tartarus they dwell still, or so say their decedents still of the One-Eyes. Titans came from the earth bound by the hammering of the One-Eyes and admired and then feared by the Gods who now came to the world. These Titans fought the Gods and were destroyed by Zeus, Father of the Gods of Olympus and son of Cronus who tried to kill his son. Mother Earth assisted Zeus and used the hundred-handed ones to destroy Cronus and the Titans. Being mightier than the Titans the hundred-handed ones hold them prisoner beyond view and under locks.
The Gods of Olympus through Zeus were now the sky above and though the ravaged land grew once more it was empty of divine works. From Serpent's teeth, the hands of Prometheus and the richest fruits of Mother Earth came the First Men. These men were golden creatures, eaters of honey, dancers and immortal though they perished and passed peacefully when Cronus went from the World. Then were the Sliver Race of Men, like The Golden they were divinely created but they lacked drive and did not worship the Gods though they never warred with each other. Zeus killed them all for this idleness and brought about third the Brazen Men who were evil and were seized all by Black Death.
The Fourth Race of Men is the time of Legend, frail and brazen but begotten by mortal mothers they fight gloriously. They blazed at the Siege of Thebes, battled at Troy and with the Trojans, sent far voyages such as that of the Argonauts and fair Odysseus. Battling monsters and each other they will all end in Elysian Fields, but not here and not now. Now is the time of Heroes. The time of Olympus and the time for creating Legend: your time.
