โ[โฆ] they had for offspring an only-begotten daughter, Cleito. And when this damsel was now come to marriageable age, her mother died and also her father; and Poseidon, being smitten with desire for her, wedded her; and to make the hill whereon she dwelt impregnable he broke it off all round about; [โฆ] And he begat five pairs of twin sons [Atlas, Eumelus, Ampheres, Euaemon, Mneseus, Autochthon, Elasippus, Mestor, Azaes, Diaprepes] and reared them up; and when he had divided all the island of Atlantis into ten portions, [โฆ] granting to each the rule over many men and a large tract of country.โ
- Plato, Critias (C4th B.C, Greek philosopher)
This has to be Poseidonโs healthiest romance by a long shot. He married her, made her a private island, had kids he actually stuck around to raise, and then set her up for life by making all of their children kings
Also, this is my favorite analysis of the Atlantis myth, highly recommend
