"She wasn't a mother. No matter what her title said, the All-Mother was everything BUT a mother to her children. She loved her brother-husband Khaos more than any of their offspring. She loved herself even more than Khaos yet the goddess always cultivated the image of an all-loving Mother to all living creatures.
She was vain. She was a backstabbing bitch. She was determined to survive even if that meant betraying her daughter to achieve it. From the moment Khaos and her conceived Elpis, the "truth" was that she was their lovechild, a truly desired child born out of true love. Yet, the reality of the situation was different. She was something they feared, something they tried to control. She was a creature far more powerful than they could ever be so they tried to beat her mind into submission. They tried to lock her in a golden cage. And they failed!
Elpis didn't like those mortals' celebrations, why would she celebrate a goddess who wasn't a mother to her? No. She didn't need Gaea! She was her own mother!"
