Personal history

Gonggong was born around the same time as Nuwa. He was her former village-mate who went with her entourage to heaven in order to learn how to be gods.
He found his calling in commanding the power of water and was undefeatable for that prehistoric period. Then, he thought he could impress Nuwa and her sister by trying to take over the throne of heaven.
He had to fight with Zhurong, the fire god. When he lost, he threw a terrible fit that tore down the sky and nearly drove humans extinct.
After Nuwa sealed the sky she and the other gods agreed to banish him to teach him a lesson about temper.
It seems he did not learn, as he came back to finish his grudge in 2001. This time, it was Phoebe who sealed him away after several days' fighting without rest.
