Zeus defeats Cronus in demon civil war

CHAPTER 8

The predicted fall of man, and the demons into the wild hedonistic maelstrom, slowly evolved and came about as man rapaciously spread over the Mesopotamian plain, now in their thousands.
Satan inevitably lost control of his demons, to the detriment of man.
Lower ranking servants vied and rivalled with each other to impliment some new innovative scheme of depravity, hoping that it would get them noticed up the chain of command, and lead to promotion and increased status.
Man was inevitably weaned away, from the true worship of the Most High, to celebrate exuberant festivals, and gave offerings to whomever the demons would lead them, sometimes to the skulls of descendants, or even to the stars.
The sun and moon were cried to and implored to give them, the necessary good harvest.
Acting behind the scenes invisibly or visibly, the demons continued to draw man further and further astray.
Satan was unable to instill the dicipline in his host at this time, for as they realised themselves to be immune from Gods jurisdiction now, they sometimes wondered why they should follow him.
And so he had to move along the downward trend, to prevent serious leadership challenges from arising, as was occuring lower down the chain of command.
Cronus`s position in Greece had become untenable, due to these power struggles and was finally defeated and removed from power over the Greek mainland, by Zeus of Crete and his new so called mighty Olympian host, in a bitterly contested demonic civil war lasting ten bloody years.
But Satan knew he was passing the point of no return with Jehovah, as he supported his demons in the open display of false worship.
The feeling of power, relpower that he exercised, in being now answerable to no one on earth, helped cover in the most part the wallowing sense of drift.
As time went on, he began to celebrate the differences of worshift brought about, and even supported it now enthusiastically as a way of regulating his forces more rigidly through competion drawing loyalty to him as rewarder of those who could obtain the most numerous human adherants and worshippers.
But something perpetrated, in the low level plain area south of the present Ukraine, separating it from Anatolia or Turkey as we know it now, by an extreme rogue element of his servants, would put his regime, well beyond the pale and he knew the Most High would have to respond to this in a strong retaliatory way.
As the rogue demons had by looking on the daughters of man, found them to be most attractive and became obsessed with them, so took them as wives and arranged it genetically so that some offspring had been born to them.

These were the strong and mighty ones that would one day be the stuff of legends and myths, in the future falsely atributable to Zeus, such as Heracles and Thesus.
Future Greek classical mytholgy would recall all these nearby happenings.
