Ouranos

There was once a child born named, Ouranos. He was half human half god. He was tall and handsome; he had blonde hair and blue eyes and loved gazing up at the blank sky. His mother was mortal, and his father was Zues. Zues cheated on Hera and created Ouranos. Hera did not know about this, but when she found out she was furious. She searched for Ouranos’ mother but could not find her. She decided that if she could not punish Ouranos’ mother, she would take all her anger out on Ouranos. So she orded her guard to find Ouranos and torture him. So her guard set out and captured Ouranos. He locked Ouranos in a dark crowded place and put him there for 7 years. When Zues found this out he set Ouranos free and apologized greatly. He said if there was anything he could do to make up for his wife. Ouranos’ ask for one thing, “The sky is always so blank” he said “I would be very grateful if you let me paint the sky my favorite color.” Zues agreed and the sky was painted blue.
