He was said to have a volatile temperament. When angry, he would summon storms that wrecked ships. For fun, he created monsters like octopus and squid. To demonstrate his love for his wife he create the dolphin, but he also had a wandering eye. When he pursued the goddess of fields and harvests, she told hem, If you give a gift, the most beautiful thing on the face of the earth, I will be yours. So he made a horse, and when it galloped from the sea tossing its mane and tail, she thought it was so beautiful she gasped and said she was his forever.
