Zeus Before Olympus | The Birth of Zeus and the Deception of Cronus

Cronus swallowed his own children. But one escaped. Before Zeus became King of Olympus, his own father tried to destroy him. Cronus had already devoured five of his children to stop a prophecy that foretold his downfall. Yet fate could not be stopped. Hidden from the Titan king and raised in secret, Zeus grew beyond the reach of fear. When the time finally came, he returned to challenge the ruler of the Titans and free his imprisoned brothers and sisters. In this episode, we follow the complete story of Zeus before the Titanomachy — from his miraculous birth to the moment Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Demeter and Hestia stand beside him once again. The prophecy survived. The gods returned.
