The resulting mountain was inhabited by one of Phorcys' daughters, this monster's consort.
Though he's neither Hephaestus nor Zeus, this entity has an alternative origin myth, in the Homeric Hymn to Pythian Apollo, according to which he was raised in a Cilician cave, possibly known as Arima, after Minoan Hera created him at Delos through parthenogenesis. Several modern scholars postulate the Hittite deity Illuyanka as his archetype while Herodotus records that the Egyptians syncretized this figure with Set. This being induced the gods to change into animals upon his approach, whereupon his greatest rival became a ram and fled. That rival was initially defeated, trapped in a korukos, and stripped of sinews, but, as recorded in Pindar's first Pythian Ode, this being was himself trapped when that rival escaped and broke up a flying rock. The resulting mountain was inhabited by one of Phorcys' daughters, this monster's consort. The offspring of Gaia by Tartarus, for 10 points, name this great enemy to Zeus and progenitor of Ladon, Orthrus, the Sphinx, and Cerberus, which he fathered on Echidna.
