Chapter 1:

Let Me Tell You Something

I'm Not a Monster, I'm a Cyclops


The world is full of mysterious creatures. Like once, when i was a kid, i followed an animal through the woods tree to tree.Because I didn't know where it was going. But then I realized, that it didn't know where it was going either!


Some mysterious creatures can write books. Like me, a cyclops. Don't scream! We only eat humans if we're hungry. And plus, I'm vegetarian! So don't be scared!

Let me tell you the story of me, myself and I. But let me say some details. My mother is Gaia and my father is Uranus. My mother is the earth to me. Literally. She is the goddess of the earth. My father, however, was the god of the sky. Sound like the perfect dad, am I right? No. I'm not.

 

As soon as Uranus took a look at me and my two siblings, he locked us up. And not for hours, or days, or weeks, or months. For years. Three decades! Until the mighty Zeus himself freed us, on one condition, we must make lighting bolts for Zeus to hurl at the mortals, like you, the reader. I was hesitant, but my siblings were eager to get out of the elaborate space prison in the sky. I tried to explain that it was a bad idea, but the eldest out of all of us said to me, "You should know that it's a bad idea to refuse a god, especially Zeus. I thought you were supposed to be the brightest out of us all!"

I thought for a moment, he was right. So I reluctantly agreed, to not risk getting cursed by the god. ESPECIALLY the king of the gods and goddesses alike.
