Ouranos had his children bound in Tartarus. Kronos, fearing his own children would overthrow him as he did his father, instead devoured his children.
Cronus attacked his father, Uranus, because he was seeking to overthrow him and end his tyrannical rule. Uranus had imprisoned Cronus's siblings, the Cyclopes and the Hecatoncheires, in Tartarus, which fueled Cronus's resentment. With the encouragement of his mother, Gaia, Cronus ambushed Uranus with a sickle, leading to Uranus's castration and the eventual rise of Cronus as the ruler of the Titans. This act set off a chain of events that would continue the cycle of conflict among the gods.
