Desire can't be fulfilled or it ceases to be desire. Also, Nyx had herself a Brood of Evil(tm).

Nope. Cronous ego is about as big as Zeus

Chronos and Zeus were both pretty bad men. The former betrayed his mother, subjugated his wife and ate his children. The latter did the same, plus he cheated on his wife endlessly, made the life of any attractive woman he saw hell, and was generally petty. A lot of Greek gods were not likable people nor truly moral. Hermes and Athena might be the only exceptions I can think of and even they have glaring flaws.

Zeus created Athena correct?

No he didn't. Even though brother-sister incest was common among deities (Hera and Zeus were brother and sister), there is little evidence of parent-daughter incest. Athena did have a mother by the way, whom Zeus swallowed whole after he convinced her to turn into a fly during a game of shapeshifting. Zeus was afraid her male offspring would be a threat to him, but instead she remained in his head and gave birth to Athena.

There's also a less common story about Poseidon, her uncle, attempting to rape her, but I don't know the details. It was never part of the books I commonly read on the topic and it seems very weird given that the two were amiable rivals over a city later on.

The Poseidon thing was between Poseidon and Hera thus creating Medusa correct?
