Not long after Zeus allied himself with his siblings, the three went to Tartarus where they convinced the Elder Cyclopes to make them weapons. After gaining Kronos’ trust he eventually served him a mixture of mustard and wine which made Kronos ill and caused him to vomit up the five children he had eaten. When Zeus came of age… he entered the service of his father becoming his father’s cupbearer. Meanwhile, Rhea gave a boulder wrapped in blankets to Kronos who ate that instead. The Kouretes & Daktyloi were three, five, or nine rustic Daimones (Spirits) appointed by Rhea to guard the infant god Zeus In order to keep him safely hidden from his cannibalistic father, the Titan (Stretching-God) Kronos, they drowned out his cries with a frenzied dance of clashing spear and shield. His other full siblings had been eaten by Kronos as soon as they were born (Kronos had been hoping to avoid one of them overthrowing him) Rhea however gave birth to Zeus in a cave on Mount Ida in Crete where she hid him.

Zeus was the third son and sixth child of Kronos & Rhea.
