After that she mated with Ouranus once again, and bare the Kyklopes; Brontes, Steropes and Arges, who made thunder for Zeus. She also had the Hekatonchires; Kottos, Briareos, and Gyges. Ouranus was disgusted with them and hide them away in Gaia. She asked the Titans to punish their father, and Kronos volunteered, and castrated him with the sickle his mother gave him.
