Hyperion is the Titan lord of light, 'the one who watches from above,' whose very name became a word for the sun. With his sister Theia he fathers the three great lights of the sky: Helios the Sun, Selene the Moon and Eos the Dawn. He is the radiance of the heavens given form, the source from which day and night are born.
