The Gigantomachy - The War of the Giants vs Olympian Gods The Gigantes are the giants of Greek Mythology. The Children of Gaia, the earth mother, in this tale they rebelled at her instigation against Zeus and his rule. Told from the perspective of both Gaia and Zeus this video includes the epic tale of the war between the Giants and the Olympian gods known as ' The Gigantomachy' Living Mythology is an attempt to entertain, relax and educate all in the one place. We are trying to forge narratives so that people can experience the religions and mythologies of the world as they were meant to be. Not as dry academic monoliths, but as living breathing tales and parables as experienced by the peoples who worshipped these beings, in an attempt to make sense of their own lives and the world around them. This channel is in its infancy, so we hope to improve and develop it as we gain more experience. All of the tales are taken from very conflicting traditions across many centuries, so there will be many a moment when decisions need to be made to create a more cohesive narrative. If we present something that seems to be in contrast to details, rest assured we have researched many forms of the traditions and come to the conclusions we have done to form the videos. There will NEVER be total agreement on any of these narratives due to the history and differing ways they developed over the centuries.

What would be better is an alternate universe where Baldermort and Family are narrating the Classical story of a friendly picnic between gods and giants. It would still be riveting. UNDOUBTEDLY. However, I feel like the universe where the Gigantomachy tells the tale of a wholesome, peaceful picnic is the one for me.
God tier quote! So lightbringer is a family member of our lord? Sibling, cousin, wife? What relation we talking about here? Regardless its crazy that there's at least TWO people in the family with such talent for storytelling and voice acting!
I think Zeus made a mistake when he punished humanity, he ignored the fact that we are just a part of nature as everything else is. He only saw the destructive potential in us, instead of guiding us towards a moral approach to the environment, he just saw us as a nasty afterthought. I like that Gea intervened on our behalf, even though, if she just talked to Zeus instead of going on a rampage, things may have turned differently. I am waiting for Typhon and hopefully for the Egyptian gods to make their appearence.
I greatly appreciate the effort and care the two of you take to retell the old stories. To breathe such life into these legends, you make the title of Living Mythology an understatement
"For were we not the same Gods that defeated the Titans..." "I perceived a new Golden Era of our abject rule, all we had to do was grasp it" "I bellowed out of instinct, pure rage" "The fury of the Olympian Gods, was a thing of dread"
This is why zeus never says anything cross of his son's want of drink. The man is insanely perceptive, cunning, and has the bravery only someone sloshed to the eyeballs has.
Very true! People think god of wine = drunk all the time Yes but he has many many talents - he is not JUST the god of wine! Thank you for commenting again my friend ! We hope you enjoyed the latest tale! - Lightbringer
Oh this will be absolutely spectacular! I know Baldermort & Lightbringer will be doing wonders with these myths! You breath new life into these old tales and make them shine like STARS☄️🌠🌟☄️!
Despite knowing how the war ended, I seriously wanted Gaia to win. As she is listing all of Zeus's crimes and cruelty towards others, especially to humanity, I felt as she did. Her rage, despair, and pain were palpable. If that was my family, my children, my grandchildren, and my great-grandchildren, I would have burned the world to cinders to make them pay. Obscenely excessive? Absolutely. Definitely understandable and relatable? Without a doubt. Once again, Sir Baldermort and Lady Lightbringer, you have given these ancient myths new life. And I am here for it. Yours Truly Zachariah 🤠
I couldn’t have put it better myself and honestly the pain is so real. Knowing today the world we live in the pollution destruction of earth we’re living in a tiny part of the story seeing it unfold in reality and it’s heartbreaking what humans are doing to the world. I hate it so much it’s such a bitter defeat in all things Gaia never gets revenge never tips the scales of power to balance .
@livingmythology1405 Your stories actually had me liking Zeus for a minute. But then, hearing Gaia give voice to all of his cruelties made me absolutely despise him. It is because whatever his justifications are, his actions are, by their very nature, abject cruelty. I could not help but sympathize with Gaia and feel her pain.
Brilliant! I was literally in the palm of your hand for every second of that! Such subtle intensity, very very clever guys. Can't wait till next month. I wonder whose next. Hera's obsessive jealousy and hatred of anyone that catches Zeus ' eye. Her hatred for Heracles is worth at mention. She inspired his ordeals after all. Maybe a mini series about the Odyssey or an Iliad supersaga. What about the other pantheons? Odin, Thor, Loki.... Fenrir massive evil wolves that bite viking God's hands off... SO COOOOOL! I know you're gonna crush it I can't wait! I love you guys!!
Thank you Kevin - we're glad you enjoyed the fruits of our labour! We've already got a lot cookin - but from your comment, I think you'll enjoy it !! - Lightbringer
:For they were cruel;, unjust and unwise" "She speaks, not for others to hear but for herself" "Knowing she holds the fate of all in her palms, she speaks"
Love how you addressed the absence of Heracles. Also super interested if you’ll cover the interaction between Tartarus and Gaia when they create Typhon. As this will be a single video I’m guessing this won’t be the version where Zeus is beaten in the 1st go around. Thanks again for such quality content.
The time and care that you two put into retelling the old tales is very appreciated. The moniker of Living Mythology is hardly an exaggeration when you bring these legends to life in such a way.
Thank you so much ! It means the world to us that you have been moved. That they feel alive again in a way - that's been the hope and wish of this channel - to make the myths feel alive again! Thank you for watching, thank you for commenting and thank you for telling us - it truly means a lot. - Lightbringer
Amazing how much they knew about the universe. Its the story of the way our tiny corner of the abiss we call the univurse came to be. Specificaly i think our solar system. Space time and matter all clashing together to create this wonderfuly terrible thing we call life. Beautiful.
@baldermort ah man I appreciate the concern and thankfully I get several days this week...I'll be doing some hobbying while listening to the Thaddeus story update...thanks for all you do!!!
A fantastic way to end the weekend, thank you Lightbringer and Baldermort for your hard work in making mythology of the past come alive. I wish you both well!
The way this lady tells the story, is breath takenly marvelous!! Beautifully done 👍👌. she makes me feel as if I'm there in person.shes only telling it, but as I watched and listen, it all felt so real. Perfect! Please don't stop giving us yo stories 😁💋💋🌹🥰❤❤
Let the hate flow! Let the fire rage! The time for wrath and ruin and the red dawn is Now!! Shortly thereafter Run away! They're a little to impenetrable to defeat! Runnnnnn!!!!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! What in the world can I say?!? All of you are brilliant!! I cannot get enough of these narratives! I want more and more! Thank you. Your #1 fan. ❤❤❤❤❤
Great topic. Epic story telling. Seems to explain earthquakes and volcano and tsunami. Also prolly helps explains dinosaurs bones found everywhere especially with no understanding of fossilization and only knowing that buried bones disintegrate rather quickly. Thank u
Yes we've been dealing with a lot of external factors which make working near impossible but we are pushing through and hoping to get back to two weekly or even work it up to weekly! Thank you for your patience! - Lightbringer
you take greek mythology to a whole new level. I listen to this channel on my to work and it’s like you get drawn in och see everything in front of you. Big fan 💯💯
Thank you Lightbringer. Thank you brother Baldermort. A tragedy such as this, done in so fine a style. I could weep and rail at the heavens, so powerful is the emotion you both elicit. I won't as I live the path of the stoic but I could. Thank you both and I look forward to the next performance.
LIVING MYTHOLOGY, thank you so much for your Gigantic effort in making these videos. I think they are so beautiful and remarkable. Your videos bring to life not only our ancestors thought about the world, but what they thought was important to preserve for all their descendants. Humans have a "spiritual" need, whether that's atheism, organized religion, tribal beliefs, or anything in between. We all seek a way to explain the unexplainable, whether through natural or unnatural/supernatural means. Mythology and spiritual traditions have popped up and will pop up most likely in virtually every human society that has ever existed. Why is this? Certainly I do not know but it is something I've observed. Clearly mythology and a shared religious tradition serves a purpose for human Society otherwise it would not keep popping up over and over. I think perhaps one of a spiritual traditions purposes is not only to unite the people in a set of beliefs, but a way to enforce a moral code that otherwise does not exist in a natural state. How do you get a bunch of humans to behave? Well if you tell them that God told you to do it or you will receive punishment, that is effective. Pardon my ramblings. I just want to say how much I appreciate your videos and how much they've opened my mind and eyes to new ways of thinking. Please keep up your hard work.
Thanks for this Baldermort and Lightbringer, I watched it eagerly and I'm looking forward to the Olympians battle against Typhon. As always greetings from Kilkenny.
One question that has tickled at me whenever the giant's rebellion has been borught up that i have never found a satisfactory answer to. Given how vengeful zxeus tends to be? Given the general tone and trend of greek storytelling? What happened to Gaia? Obfiously she does not die in myth. As the firstborn even if Zeus is ruler of creation she is still the first daughter, the first being created of primordial chaos. Yet to have let her go would be essentially to leave a challenger unpunished. I have never seen an answer that I found satisfactory. Does she simply stop manifesting and essentially enter a long dormancy waiting for zeus's overthrow to happen on its own? As always I look forward to your tales and interpretations Lightbringer, Baldermort. Thank you both.
Hi. I have been binge watching your channel and on repeat since I am not native english speaker and may need a second attempt to understand. Thank you so much for this channel I am now able to un the story line like you said the mythology is not far away topics for academic studies but living breathing. I have one question. When primordials becoming to being, there are those like Styx that are work in the realm of dead and underworld and also Hade. but human being don't come to being until Prometheus or like when Zeus feel too bored and ordered Prometheus to create human. So which one comes first the underworld order or human?
It is so interesting to see science in the old myths! Many creation myths are very similar with the structure too! They weren't too far off which is quite impressive - Lightbringer
depends on who they uses the earliest one has zeus curve stomp but given the changes like hades being able to wield his bolt they put their own spin@@CinemaKingTheaters
I’m curious how the advent of other things, like Christianity overtaking the Olympians would play out? Or the transformation from the Greek to Roman pantheon I remember a comic a while back that had something like that.
We usually are on a two week schedule and are working to bring it back - (we hope to one day make it one a week) but our team(of two) has faced a lot of external issues which have made working on videos near impossible! But Typhon should be out in two weeks ! We are trying our best to bring out more videos more frequently though my friend! - Lightbringer
Sometimes he does deserve it - others he is a hero and champion It all depends on the tale and the perspective! (But it does sound very cathartic haha) - Lightbringer
The hundred handed ones in some myths wanted to guard Tartarus because of the cruelty they suffered from the titans. And one became a guard of Zeus in the heavens. Gaia be very irrational lol
*Zeus & Hades remind me of Edward IV & Richard III of England with Poseidon being the devious, George, Duke of Clarence. Greek Mythology is mirrored in Medieval English history.
Within the first few words spoken - i said "oh god no, one of these fkn guys, speaking like theyre from middle earth or some shit" but then i listened for a while and im like 👍 ok , ok, please go on sir

Thus the nature of greek stories. For want of someone having a better head? Everything burns.
But we are destructive. So Zeus saw the right thing.😂

One question that has tickled at me whenever the giant's rebellion has been borught up that i have never found a satisfactory answer to.
Given how vengeful zxeus tends to be? Given the general tone and trend of greek storytelling?
What happened to Gaia? Obfiously she does not die in myth. As the firstborn even if Zeus is ruler of creation she is still the first daughter, the first being created of primordial chaos.
Yet to have let her go would be essentially to leave a challenger unpunished. I have never seen an answer that I found satisfactory. Does she simply stop manifesting and essentially enter a long dormancy waiting for zeus's overthrow to happen on its own?

Thank you so much for this channel I am now able to un the story line like you said the mythology is not far away topics for academic studies but living breathing.
I have one question. When primordials becoming to being, there are those like Styx that are work in the realm of dead and underworld and also Hade. but human being don't come to being until Prometheus or like when Zeus feel too bored and ordered Prometheus to create human. So which one comes first the underworld order or human?
A story about giants narrated by giants?? Yes please!!! Sub earned +1 ❤
Yes mother...show them that you are the beginning and the end!
Rise up Gaia!

The story telling is so beutiful
Also weren't the giants created after the titanomachy?
It is so interesting to see science in the old myths!
Many creation myths are very similar with the structure too!
They weren't too far off which is quite impressive

Giants being on the same levels as gods would make giants basically the Anti Gods.
"...when he was still capable of love"
I wonder how they will handle Typhon?
@baldermort I will wait until the crew does it on their time. Typhon is my second favorite character from greek myth.
depends on who they uses the earliest one has zeus curve stomp but given the changes like hades being able to wield his bolt they put their own spin@@CinemaKingTheaters
Yeah I can see that @@durrangodsgrief6503
Typhon is the next video !
Baldermort and I are the 'crew' - the crew of two!
We shall be working hard to bring it to you asap!

I’m curious how the advent of other things, like Christianity overtaking the Olympians would play out? Or the transformation from the Greek to Roman pantheon
I remember a comic a while back that had something like that.
im confused with the fact these videos skip timelines, they need organising , but theyre awesome videos
I wish we could have one video a week or at least two a month
We usually are on a two week schedule and are working to bring it back - (we hope to one day make it one a week) but our team(of two) has faced a lot of external issues which have made working on videos near impossible!
But Typhon should be out in two weeks !
We are trying our best to bring out more videos more frequently though my friend!

Fantastisk, breathtaking, awsome, ,,,by all the gods i cant wait ...
to think i almost felt bad for endlessly punching Zeus in the face in the GOW games and destroying Olympus.
Sometimes he does deserve it - others he is a hero and champion
It all depends on the tale and the perspective!
(But it does sound very cathartic haha)

That was awesome! I can’t wait for Typhon! Great job, thank you for the great content!
Thanks for watching! We're excited to get into it Typhon too!

Thought I knew that voice!
Very cool video. I see tons more videos with AI art these days though. Not sure I like that aspect though.
The hundred handed ones in some myths wanted to guard Tartarus because of the cruelty they suffered from the titans. And one became a guard of Zeus in the heavens. Gaia be very irrational lol
*Zeus & Hades remind me of Edward IV & Richard III of England with Poseidon being the devious, George, Duke of Clarence. Greek Mythology is mirrored in Medieval English history.
Within the first few words spoken - i said "oh god no, one of these fkn guys, speaking like theyre from middle earth or some shit" but then i listened for a while and im like 👍 ok , ok, please go on sir
