Q19: There are several versions of this legend, including ones where Athena or Poseidon directly bring Pegasus to Bellerophon. The most famous one though, is that Athena comes to him while sleeping and gives him a golden bridle, which allows him to ride Pegasus.

the thing is there are a bunch of different versions i found 3. one version had a big black bird(Nyx) in the nothingness laying an egg. when it hatched the top half of the shell was the sky, the bottom was earth. and inside was the god of love Eros. he made the earth and sky fall in love and they had the titans.Anyways, the common things is that everything started with nothingness/chaos. Next came love, the sky, and the earth then everything else. How it came about differs.

Q20:According to greek legend, how is the world created?hint: This involved a titan born from chaos.Answer:(well, like most mythologies, there are different interpretations, and perspectives; so I'll just go with the one I'm most familiar with)In the beginning, there was only the dark void, Chaos. Out of Chaos, came Gaia (Earth) and other primordial necessaries such as Eros (Love) and Erebus (Darkness). Without help, Gaia created Uranus (the Sky), who is considered the first Ruler.Together, Uranus and Gaia created the first 12 Titans, which included Cronus, who was the last to be born. Cronus, who wanted to be the Ruler, castrated Uranus (I know, sounds harsh right), and became the ruler of the gods, with Rhea (his sister) as his consort, and the other Titans as his court.This betrayal was replicated again, with Zeus (who was Cronus' son) rebelling against him. To cut the story short, Cronus was afraid that his heirs would do the same to him, as he did to his father. So each time Rhea gave birth to a child, he ate him/her. Rhea decided to trick Cronus, and wrapped a stone in a baby's blanket in place of Zeus. When Zeus was older, he came back for revenge and gave Cronus a drugged drink which induced vomit, causing Cronus to regurgitate all the other offspring (and the stone). Zeus then challenged Cronus for the Kingship, and together with the other gods, led a war against Cronus and the Titans. They won, and Cronus and the Titans were imprisoned in Tartarus.So in this manner, the primordial world was born. Each of the early gods/titans represented a crucial element of the world such as Gaia as Earth, and etc. The offspring of Zeus are known as the ideals/cultures which were then brought into the world, such as Athena who represented Wisdom.

q29: In the book 'Journey to the West' he was born from a mythical stone formed from the primal forces of chaos.GPs were deducted for this post, please read the rules! - tedsb16edit: sent this to ted. i'd also like to see how others would reword the answer to this question."I'll accept the deduction but i'd like to ask how you would reword that short description without getting the question wrong due to lack of info/description? would "hatched from a rock that came from chaos" work?
