Percy is frightened by the dreams and unsure of who is contacting him, but he refuses to give in to temptation. However, as Grover is wearing them instead, the magic is confused enough that Percy and Annabeth are able to save Grover. Upon the trio's return to the mortal world, they are confronted by Ares and Percy realizes that someone else was responsible for the theft of the two items and had been manipulating Ares who attempted to deny it.
After Percy defeats Ares in a duel, Kronos made his presence felt for just a second, frightening Ares into accepting his defeat and leaving. With the Furies having witnessed the fight and Percy having recovered the Helm of Darkness, Percy was able to prevent Hades from starting a war over the theft.
After feeling the darkness given off by Ares when Kronos stopped him, Percy and Annabeth finally understand that Kronos is responsible and had been the one in Tartarus speaking to Percy. Percy returns the Master Bolt to Zeus, stopping the war. Percy then reveals to Zeus and Poseidon that Ares was being used before explaining to them the voice from the pit's attempts to convince Percy to bring him the Master Bolt. Clarifying that he's not accusing Hades, Percy correctly guesses that the entrance to the pit is Tartarus and that something powerful and evil is stirring down there that's even older than the gods.
Zeus and Poseidon briefly spoke in ancient Greek about it with Percy only understanding the word "father" before Zeus refused to hear any further discussion.
Once Zeus is gone, Percy asks Poseidon about the being in the pit and correctly guesses that it was Kronos when prompted by his father. Poseidon explains how during the First Titan War , Zeus had cut Kronos into a thousand pieces as Kronos had done to Ouranos and then cast Kronos' remains into the deepest pit of Tartarus. However, as Titans can't die anymore than the gods can, Kronos is still alive in some hideous way, still conscious and in eternal pain always hungering for power.
Percy expresses a belief that Kronos is healing and returning, but Poseidon dismisses this idea, telling Percy of how over the eons Kronos has stirred to influence men and monsters, but doesn't believe that Kronos is returning. Percy insists that it's what Kronos intends as Kronos had said as much, but Poseidon refuses to discuss the matter further as Zeus has closed all discussion on the matter.
On the last night of camp, Luke gets Percy alone and summons a Pit Scorpion to attack him, revealing his betrayal of the gods. Luke confirms that he's working for Kronos and explains how Kronos contacted him in his dreams, using Luke's resentment to his advantage and convinced Luke to steal the Master Bolt and the Helm of Darkness.
Luke goes on to explain how he and Kronos had manipulated Ares after the god of war had caught Luke and how they had attempted to manipulate Percy into bringing the two items to the Titan. Luke warns Percy that he has only delayed the Kronos' plans and that Kronos will rise and cast the Olympians into Tartarus the humans back into their caves, sparing only the strongest - those who agree to serve him. Luke orders the scorpion to kill Percy, stating that Kronos has plenty of quests for Luke to undertake and that a new Golden Age is coming that Percy won't be a part of.
Although the scorpion succeeds in stinging Percy, he manages to kill it and return to camp for healing.
Percy warns Chiron of the developments who departs to warn the gods. Having been told of the existence of the Great Prophecy , Percy also realizes that it has to do with him and Kronos, but Chiron is forbidden from explaining it to him.
It is described as making the room colder and darker. Luke explains how he is bringing Kronos from Tartarus : every time a demigod renounces the gods to follow Kronos, a piece of the Titan King appears in the sarcophagus. In addition, their change of sides make the Titans their new deities stronger and the Olympians their former deities weaker.
Kronos intended to have Percy and his friends claim the Golden Fleece , and then take it from them to return to full power. However, he then intended to return the Fleece to Percy, so that Thalia Grace daughter of Zeus could be reborn and give him another chance to control the Great Prophecy , since he was confident in his abilities to sway her to his side.
The reason why Kronos wanted Thalia to be reborn is finally revealed: he intended her to become the one of the Great Prophecy and to gain the power to destroy Olympus by burning the Ophiotaurus entrails.
Luke reveals Kronos's plan to invade Camp Half-Blood where several demigod heroes live and later Olympus itself. In order to accomplish this as is later revealed , Kronos had Luke send Chris Rodriguez into the Labyrinth , so that the latter might be able to find a way into Camp Half-Blood.
Kronos himself doesn't make an appearance, but as Thalia approaches Mount Othrys on Dr. Chase 's car, he strikes her car with lightning. After Atlas's failure to capture Ophiotaurus and let Artemis escape, Kronos decides not to free Atlas from the weight of the sky because he failed his duties, despite Atlas being his best fighter.
Kronos' sickle is first seen in Mount Saint Helens , when the telekhines re-forged it out of Backbiter. Percy describes it as the most terrifying weapon he's ever seen.
Ethan Nakamura swears loyalty to the Titans, finally waking Kronos, who uses Luke's body as a host until he can fully come back from Tartarus. Percy tries to fight him, but is unable to harm him as Kronos' host bears the Curse of Achilles. Kronos slows down time and would have killed Percy, had Kronos not been momentarily distracted when Rachel Elizabeth Dare throws her blue hairbrush at him and it hits him in the eye, which momentarily confuses Kronos, who then answers in Luke's voice.
Nico di Angelo son of Hades creates a rock barrier between the two groups. These actions give Percy and his friends enough time to escape. Due to his palace being shattered on top of him, Kronos is unable to lead his forces into Camp Half-Blood, as he had initially planned and the Battle of the Labyrinth takes place without him. Kronos, still using Luke's body as a host, is on the Princess Andromeda , where he manages to capture Percy and Charles Beckendorf as they try to blow up the ship.
Percy fights him bravely, but Kronos easily gains the upper hand and wounds Percy with his sickle, almost killing him. Kronos was the only one besides Percy and, as later revealed, Alabaster C. Torrington who survived the explosion on the Princess Andromeda.
Kronos has his brother Krios defend Mount Othrys, his brother Oceanus attack Poseidon, and his brother Hyperion join his gathering forces in Manhattan. His brother Koios later mentions to have fought in the war, but his role is unknown. Kronos used the storm giant Typhon as a distraction for the Olympians, which meant that only the demigods stood in the way of his plan of the destruction of Olympus, where he would destroy the the gods' thrones, causing Olympus to fade forever.
Before putting his plan into action, Kronos has the minor gods Morpheus and Hecate cast a huge sleeping spell, causing all of the mortals in Manhattan to fall asleep. He later slowed down the time of people coming to Manhattan so anyone couldn't enter the city until the war was over. Kronos leads an offensive against Mount Olympus, which results in the bloodiest battle of the Second Titanomachy, but Kronos only could do it at night when he was strongest.
Percy has another brief fight with Kronos and, since he now also bears the Curse of Achilles, is able to fight him on a nearly equal footing, though Kronos as a Titan is still stronger. As Percy pushed back Kronos' forces, Kronos watches Percy from the other shoreline as the latter destroys the bridge.
Kronos later sends Ethan and the Titan Prometheus to Percy for a peace meeting, where Prometheus asks the demigods to surrender, but Percy refuses. In response, Kronos sends a monster that can only be defeated by a child of Ares , the Lydian Drakon , on Percy's forces during the day while they are still recovering. The monster , however, is defeated by Clarisse La Rue , who arrived after Silena Beauregard died trying.
As Kronos makes his last march on Olympus, he has a brief encounter with his son Chiron, after which Kronos blasts him against a wall.
When Kronos' army is attacked by Hades' forces, Hades challenges Kronos to a duel. However, Kronos prefers to hide behind an energy field and manages to get to the Empire State Building.
He takes the elevator up to Olympus and starts destroying the statues of the gods. Kronos and Percy battle for the last time in the Hall of the Gods , with neither gaining the upper hand. Then Ethan realizes that Kronos can only bring destruction and stabs him with his sword, which shatters and ends up hurting himself. Kronos opens up a hole, where the mortally wounded Ethan falls off Olympus, and resumes his battle with Percy.
He finally manages to disarm Percy, but his host is distracted by Annabeth, who reminds Luke of the promise he made her and realizes who is the hero mentioned in the Great Prophecy. Luke manages to regain control over his body and takes Annabeth's knife from Percy the cursed blade of the Great Prophecy and stabs himself in his Achilles heel, his armpit.
As a result, Kronos was spread to the wind , hopefully , spread so thin, that he could never take a form or be conscious again. After learning of Hera 's warning that a king rising on the winter solstice, Annabeth worriedly asks Chiron to tell her that it's not Kronos.
After a moment, Chiron confirms that the threat from Kronos is over, but he refuses to explain what the new threat is. While talking to an amnesiac Percy , Nico mentions Kronos' comeback.
However, since he was forced to adhere to the promise that he had formerly given Hades , Nico quickly corrects himself after almost calling the Titan King Kronos, and instead refers to him as by his Roman name, Saturn. Nico tells Percy the story of the Battle of Mount Othrys , and how Saturn had probably just faded back into the abyss of Tartarus again.
Nico is shown to be very cautious when telling the story, as if fearing the rapid return of Percy's memory. All throughout the book, Percy wonders if little Kronos particles are flying around, laughing at him as he walked in Tartarus. Koios tells Bob that bits and pieces of Kronos' essence remain, but nothing that could ever be put together again. Koios suggests that there are some injuries that even Tartarus can't heal.
One of the things that Percy accuses Carter Kane of being is a rogue demigod from Kronos' army. Annabeth briefly considers distracting Serapis by throwing her knife into his eye like how Rachel Elizabeth Dare once distracted Kronos, but Annabeth decides against it as she doesn't trust her aim. Kronos was the boldest and most ruthless of the siblings, even though he was the youngest. His siblings and children were afraid of his insufferably irascible temper.
He horribly punishes those who failed him and rarely gives second chances in times of crisis. Kronos is said to have inherited his mother's "cold and distant" smile, which would not waver while he watched demigods die or cities burn. While looking at him in the eye, it is impossible to tell whether he intends to tell a joke or to start a fight, making him completely unpredictable.
Kronos has a cruel and insatiable lust for power and domination that surpassed that of any other Titan. As shown in Percy Jackson's Greek Gods , he was the youngest Titan of all, which is why both of his parents initially ignored him. As a result, he would always strive to prove himself as superior to his elder siblings in any possible way, which inspired him to murder his father. He relished being immortal and enjoyed speeding up the growth of mortals, sadistically watching them wither up and die before his eyes, something he never got bored of.
Realizing that his children could potentially become too powerful for him to control, Kronos' cruelty and megalomania began to surface stronger than ever. He resulted to savagery towards his children, all of whom he brutally swallowed except for Zeus , earning himself the infamous "King Cannibal" nickname. While Kronos was confident in his abilities to sway demigods to his side, he soon recognized which ones were too loyal or stubborn to change sides.
Earlier in his reign as Titan King, Kronos was shown to have a more honorable side - he went through with his promise of releasing his Hekatonkheire and Elder Cyclops brethren though only initially and fairly rewarded the four brothers who helped him with control over the four corners of the world. Though Kronos had initially relished all of the power and authority that he possessed, he would later become quite miserable about none of his Titan relatives ever visiting him and knew they secretly feared him.
Kronos would finally fall deeply in love with Rhea, believing that marrying her would improve his personality. Before finding out that his daughter Hestia wasn't a Titan, Kronos seemed willing to be a good father and not to resemble his own cruel father Ouranos. After swallowing 5 of his children, Kronos began looking "tired and apathetic".
He has brutal golden eyes, black curly hair and a unnerving, long pointy beard. He is 9 feet tall, which is short for a Titan. However, he was very young at the time and would later grow as tall as his huge elder siblings. Cronos was the only one of her children brave enough to take action against him. After the fight, Uranos cursed him in such a way that his children, being the Olympians, as they were later to be called, would kill him and over come him, which was true and eventually happened after the ten year war.
After driving his father away, Kronos became king of the universe and the under world , he did this by stealing the powers of the other Titans though he never controlled the earth AKA his mother Gaia, who cowered away in the depths of Tartarus. He remained so for eons, alongside his sister and queen, Rhea. Kronos prevented it by swallowing each of his children the day they were born.
But when Rhea bore her sixth child, named Zeus, she had him secretly transported to Crete. When Zeus and Hades combine their powers, they manage to stagger Kronos, but the Titan strikes the ground and sends shock-waves through the land.
Zeus attempts to shield himself and Hades, but Zeus is overcome and injured. Perseus then approaches Kronos with the Spear of Triam. Kronos attempts to incinerate him by breathing fire, but Perseus uses the spear to pass through it and into Kronos' mouth.
Perseus tosses the spear down Kronos' throat, which causes him to convulse and explode. Zeus later dies from his wounds, leaving Hades as the only son of Kronos remaining. According to Hephaestus , if Kronos is let loose, has enough power to scatter the Earth across the universe. In the past, the gods needed the aid of the Kraken to defeat Kronos and the rest of the titans. It is proven that not even the combined powers of Hades and Zeus are enough to stop Kronos, The Spear of Triam is the only known weapon capable of defeating him.
Kronos is one of the most powerful beings the series. Kronos appears on the Titans Attack online game on the Wrath of the Titans official site. On the game, Kronos is not a playable character nor a computer controlled enemy, he acts simply as a background character. During the promotion stage prior to the film's debut, on the Creatures Unleashed campaign, various official featurettes were made for the creatures and Titans featured in Wrath of the Titans, including Kronos.
