## Plot

After asking the audience if they ever wonder why things exist Jake Doubleyoo talks about people from Greece and the religion they created:

In the universe there was nothing but an endless void of space known as Chaos, suddenly 3 primordial deities known as Gaia the mother of all life, Tartarus and endless abyss, and Eros the embodiment of love and passion spawned from the endless void of space. Gaia also known as earth became lonely and so sprouted a bunch of mountain gods known as The Ourea, along with a being known as Uranus who was the sky and him being Gaia's favorite she declared him ruler of everything. She and Uranus fell in love and produced a large mass of children with them being named Gyges, Brontes, Crius, Oceanus, Tethys, Arges, Mnemosyne, Dione, Cronus, Icpotus, Themis, Phoebe, Steropes, Briareus, Cottus, Hyperion, Rhea, and Coeus.

Due to half of their children being ugly, Uranus imprisoned them which made Gaia sad and so asked her son Cronus to free them by killing his father. Unfortunately knives hadn't been invented yet so he just cut his father testicles off thereby preventing him from reproducing making him so embarrassed he just remained in the sky. After doing this Cronus ignored his mother when she asked him to free his siblings and instead married his sister Rhea, however Cronus was worried that his children like him would commit treason and take over his rule so he opted to cannibalize them. Rhea however did not like this and when her son Zeus was born she pretended he was a rock which Cronus luckily fell for.

The real Zeus was put in a cave with Amalthea and loud sounds outside the save he was being raised in so his father wouldn't hear the noises. When Zeus grew up he decided that he should get revenge on his father for trying to eat him, so Zeus tricked him into drinking poison causing him to puke up Zeus' siblings Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Poseidon, and Hades and he convinced them to join them to kill Cronus. A battle between Zeus and his siblings and Cronus and his normal siblings took place called Titanomachy, while the battle was happening Gaia asked her grandson Zeus to free his ugly deformed uncles and aunts. Zeus agreed on the condition that they help Zeus and give him and his siblings super cool weapons like Zeus' thunderbolt, Hades' invisibility hat, and Poseidon's trident. With the help of their uncles and aunts and their weapons they managed to defeat Cronus and send their father and normal uncles and aunts and put them in prison in place of their ugly ones.

After defeating they're father they got to rule location's on their grandmother's body, Zeus got to rule his grandfather, Poseidon go to rule the ocean, and Hades got to rule the underworld and named it after him. Hestia got to become the god of campfires, Demeter controlled the weather and becomes lazy after a custody against her brother to the rights to her daughter. Zeus being like his father married his youngest sister Hera and had children with her named Ares the god of war, Hephaestus but he was deformed so Hera abandoned him and he landed with 2 mermaids who gave him legoes which he used to prank his mother making Zeus accept him. After accepting him Zeus had him soothe his headache by hitting him on the head with an axe giving birth to Athena the goddess of war, when Zeus inquired about the head origin Athena explained how and why Hera was not her mother. Zeus not wanting Hera to get angry interrupted Athena to compliment Hera, however this would not be the only time Zeus had an affair, there was the time Zeus cheated on her with a woman known as Leto who Hera chased onto an island where she promptly gave birth to Zeus' twins Artemis and Apollo.

Artemis would be like most of her brothers and her father in the way she loved action and adventure but had a distaste for the males of all species. Apollo on the other hand was a social butterfly and loved everyone and like his twin sister also loved adventure and action, along with that he also had special abilities more that than his sister. There was also the time where a woman known as Demele who was dating Zeus at the time thought that Zeus was an impostor and to prove he wasn't Zeus unleashed his full power unintentionally vaporizing her leaving their unborn fetus of a son Dionysus. So to prevent the fetus from dying Zeus put Dionysus in a part of his leg so he could complete the 9 month birth cycle and once he did Dionysus just went partying with some goat people. There was also the time Zeus had a relationship with a woman named Maia and she had his son Hermes who stole from cows from Apollo and when Apollo asked why he did so he instead became distracted by the music Hermes was making and the 2 became best friends that were also half brothers.

Sometime later Uranus' testicles fell from the sky into Poseidon's ocean and after a bit went from being testicles to being Aphrodite the god of love and beauty which due to her name all the gods were attracted to her. Zeus not wanting to get caught cheating again in front of wife decided that instead of mating with Aphrodite to betroth her to his son Hephaestus, however this relationship would not last long as she would be caught cheating on Hephaestus with his brother Ares and the 2 would be made fun of for it.
