Euthalia, after receiving the order from Gaia, quickly went to the place where the three Cyclops were, Mount Etna. They were the one-eyed giants that remained after Cronus took power. Gaia quickly took the three of them to hide in a place where Cronus could not find them.
Landing in front of the cave, it was pitch black inside, so she immediately created light and went inside to search for people.
Barefoot, walking on the cold and slightly damp rocks, pushing aside the leaves, she saw Gaia's symbol on it. Euthalia gently rubbed her hand on it, and Gaia's magic inside her moved onto that symbol, causing it to glow green with life.
The rock in front of her immediately moved, opening up another path, in front of her was lava, the loud sound of something hitting hard created a tremor that shook the entire space.
Euthalia looked around for the giant figure, then saw a black shadow that looked quite big in the distance, so she ran towards it. Jumping on the rocks to avoid the lava, sometimes the lava would splash up, making Euthalia startled.
As she got closer, she saw more clearly the difference between the giant's greatness and Euthalia's smallness, he was concentrating on his work and didn't notice that she was approaching.
"Excuse me....one-faced giant sir"- Euthalia
The giant didn't seem to hear her, so she called out louder.
"Sorry to bother you! Hello!"- Euthalia
The arm that was hammering down stopped halfway, the giant slowly turned his head and saw a small figure but had something familiar.
"Who are you?"
"Hello, you must be Brontes, right? Sorry to bother you, my name is Euthalia, granddaughter of the goddess Gaia!"- Euthalia
"Granddaughter of mother Gaia?"- Brontes
The giant turned around to see clearly on his wrinkled face there was only one eye, a shaggy beard, he scratched his head which had only one strand of hair and stared at the little girl.
"What business do you have here?"- Brontes
"We are going to have a war with the titans soon, but we don't have weapons to fight. Can you and your two brothers forge weapons for us?"- Euthalia
"On what basis would I help you? Besides, the titans are very strong, they are not easily defeated"- Brontes
"I know that, but there are still other titans who have switched sides to our side"- Euthalia
"Even so, Cronus is too strong, you and your brothers and sisters will not be able to defeat him. Go, you will implicate us"- Brontes
After saying that, he turned around and continued pounding the hammer to continue working, Euthalia knew that she could not gently persuade this giant, so she had to use a more risky method.
"What if we help your brothers to be freed?"- Euthalia
The giant's hammering action stopped halfway, he did not say anything for a long time before turning his head back.
"Do you know what you are saying?"- Brontes
"Of course I know, using other people's weaknesses to force them to help you is a despicable but also very sinister move"- Euthalia
The giant thought for a long time before finally speaking.
"Consider yourself smart. After all, for the sake of Mother Gaia, we will help you"- Brontes
"Will you really help?"- Euthalia asked in surprise
"Just keep your promise to free my brothers, little goddess" - Brontes
Thanks to Euthalia's persuasion, the three cyclops giants agreed to create weapons for themselves. Zeus received the thunderbolt, Poseidon received the trident, and Hades received a helmet of invisibility. The remaining goddesses did not need any fancy weapons, so they mostly used their powers.
While everything was being prepared as planned, Arges suddenly came to her.
"Little Goddess, I finally found you"- Arges
"Lord Arges, do you have something to ask of me?"- Euthalia
"Oh, it's nothing big. I just have something I want you to take"- Arges
The giant's hand extended out, revealing a pair of golden hairpins with feathers that sparkled in the light, this item was not a weapon but an accessory.
"This is...."- Euthalia
"Let me tell you, this is something we secretly made for you. Knowing that you're not the type to rush into battle, we gave you this to avoid danger"- Arges whispered
"I really like it, thank you very much, please send my thanks to your brothers too"- Euthalia happily
After receiving it and putting it on her head, because of this accessory, Euthalia received a lot of attention from others, making her think that this was a bad idea. Her face involuntarily turned red with embarrassment as her sisters gathered around to look at her.
"Euthalia, where did you get this?"- Hestia
"It's just a gift from someone else, it's nothing special"- Euthalia
"Humph, you're saying it's nothing special, I think this gift is implying that someone is interested in you"- Demeter
"No way!"- Euthalia pouted
"Oh my, why have I never seen such a cute little sister before?"- Hera
With her older sisters surrounding her and praising her, Euthalia was a bit embarrassed and speechless. Her brothers' eyes were filled with pride, but she didn't know what they were proud of.
Not long after the weapons that the three Cyclops had completed, Zeus received lightning bolts, Poseidon received a trident, Hades received an invisible helmet, the goddesses only received swords in their hands.
"That's not okay, we can accept it, but what about Euthalia? She's too young to have a weapon to defend herself"- Demeter spoke up
"Huh?"- Euthalia was surprised
"That's right, she's too young to fight"- Hestia
"Wait a minute!"- Euthalia stopped
"Can you guys make our little sister a weapon?"- Poseidon
"Everyone, please listen to me!"- Euthalia shouted
And so, under the request of her siblings, Euthalia received a small knife and a scythe. Having two weapons like that made them feel a bit more secure.
"Then why these two?"- Euthalia looked with a puzzled look
"Euthalia, my dear. Listen, you are the youngest of us, so you cannot jump into the battlefield. Moreover, you are a girl, not a grown woman like our other three sisters"- Zeus
Hearing that, Euthalia wanted to object, but suddenly there was a sudden tremor that shook the place where they were standing, the tremor became closer and closer. This proved that the titans were about to attack.
"The titans are attacking! The titans are attacking!"
Hearing that, the others quickly got into position, Euthalia wanted to go with them but was held back by Hades.
"You can't go, stay here and defend yourself"- Hades
"But brother, I can protect myself"- Euthalia
"As your brother, it's best if you listen to me"- Hades
After saying that, Hades left with the others, leaving Euthalia, clutching her weapon in her hand with discomfort in her heart.
Obviously, she could help them.
