Nicole MacDonald is a thirty something year old Kiwi who loves to read and moonlights as a novelist. An avid reader from a young age, writing only occurred to her a few years ago after reading a book that didn’t quite hit the spot.
Daily scribbles eventuated into the BirthRight Trilogy, an Epic Fantasy Romance with women who know how to wield a sword, AND swing a punch. A literary journey that included six months of long sword training, as well as ju-jitsu lessons, and self-defence lessons for Nicole.
When not writing Nicole loves to watch all manner of documentaries, escape to her family's cabin in the woods, and spend time with her other half and their fur critters.

Prometheus Project
Space.
An infinite expanse filled to the brim with both endearing beauties and unthinkable terrors.
In a day and age far beyond into the future, psionically gifted and/or cybernetically enhanced individuals walk the streets as daily citizens.
Humanity has succeeded in colonising entire solar systems and yet the inlying faults of humanity still remain.
Bandits and marauders roam backwater worlds, where the reach of the human interstellar nations are waning, giving them free reign to do as they please.
On top of this, the notions of jealousy and rivalries still continued to persist within humanity as they brought the rivalries and feuds from Earth and into the stars.
However, dangerous bandits and warring human nations aren't the only thing to fear in this 'new world.'
Humanity isn't the only species to reach the stars.
Alien species with queer or odd physicalities and strange cultures threaten humanity at every turn.
And far beyond them, there are the Cosmic Horrors whose very existence was enough to threaten entire solar systems.
And yet, there was a threat greater still than the Cosmic Horrors comparable to that of Gods.
And that was a mere human.
A mere human with an idea.

PROMETHEUS - ANAGNORISIS
I never wanted things to be like this you know, I never wanted to have blood on my hands, but life didn't give me a choice, born a 3rd son to a peasant family, joining the military had been the only chance I had to earn a living, maybe have a halfway decent lifestyle, find a good wife, have a child and settle down with her one day.
But at some point, I started to have these dreams, if you could call them that, and everything started to change.
“Prometheus…who is he?” I said to myself as I closed my notebook and went to bed.
***
the story of Prometheus anagnorisis covers the story of Ithax, a young peasant boy who enlisted into the army out of no real choice, forced into a world of power struggles between multiple species and human kings and nobles, Ithax will have to figure out his own purpose for living…will he be able to find the peaceful life he wanted or will forces beyond his reach keep on pulling him back onto the battlefield.
***
Prometheus - anagnorisis, is something that I started thinking of around 2 months into college after I had understood myself that there was no way I would be able to continue writing my previous novel at this point, and I spent a great deal of time thinking about world design, and stuff like that, I only finally got time to pen things down by the time my first semester ended, and I can say for certain that this is my best work to date.
the novel will be divided into 3 parts, of which I will reveal only the first one for now, ASCENSION, covering the start of Ithax's journey.
The name Prometheus - anagnorisis itself is supposed to be a mystery for those of you who are interested in why I chose the name, as the story goes on you will slowly understand the meaning of the name.
I won't reveal much in the synopsis here, as everything that I can say here would act as a spoiler, which would ruin the fun of a novel like this one.

Rebirth of Prometheus
As the moon hung high in the night sky, casting an eerie glow over the land, Evan stood alone atop a desolate mountain peak. His heart, burdened by the weight of his past, beat with a fury matched only by the flames of vengeance that burned within him.
The wind whispered through the trees, carrying with it the memories of a time long gone. Images, once a beacon of honor and strength, flashed before his eyes. Faces, twisted in anguish, haunted his every waking moment. The pain of betrayal, etched deep within his soul, fueled his desire for retribution.
In the solitude of his thoughts, Evan contemplated the path he had chosen. The pursuit of power had become an obsession, a means to finding what was lost and quench the burning desire that consumed him. No longer would he be the victim. No longer would he suffer the pain of loss.
The dark forces, seductive in their promises of strength and dominance, whispered their temptations in his ear. Their promises resonated within him, tempting him with the power to bring his enemies to their knees. They spoke of a world where he would be feared and revered, where his name would be etched into the annals of history. Where he would obtain what he sought.
But deep within the recesses of his heart, a small voice cried out, urging him to reconsider. It reminded him of the past memories. In the midst of his struggle, an encounter with her stirred something within him, a glimmer of hope in the abyss of darkness that had consumed his soul. With each passing day, power and vengeance no longer held the allure they once did.
Evan surveyed the chaos he had wrought, a surge of conflicting emotions washed over him. Regret mingled with anger, giving birth to a profound sense of self-loathing. Had he become the monster, would that person despise him? Was vengeance truly the answer?
As victory was secured and the dust settled, Evan stood amidst the ruins of his former life. The flames of vengeance had been extinguished, replaced by a flickering ember of hope. The path to redemption would be long and arduous, but he was ready to face it, one step at a time.
As he ventured deeper into the unknown, he would uncover …

The 'Ozymandias' real story is based on the historical figure Ramesses II. Shelley's poem 'Ozymandias' describes the ruins of a once - great statue of this powerful pharaoh. Ramesses II was known for his large building projects and military might. His statues were symbols of his power, but over time, they have decayed, just as the poem depicts, showing the transient nature of power and the might of time.
It might vary depending on the specific context. Sometimes, it could be an omniscient narrator with a broad perspective. Other times, it could be a protagonist or a secondary character with a limited viewpoint.
There was no exact release date for Prometheus 3. It was reported that the script for Prometheus 3 was currently being written and that the director, Ridley Scott, would return to direct it. Fox Pictures had been acquired by Orlando, so the project might be affected. In addition, there were reports about other sequels to the Alien series, but there was no specific mention of Prometheus 3. Therefore, the release date of Prometheus 3 could not be confirmed yet.
Ozymandias in 'Watchmen Graphic Novel' is like a mastermind. He has been planning for a long time. His physical abilities, combined with his strategic mind, make him a formidable force. He is a symbol of the self - made hero in the Watchmen universe. However, his actions at the end, like faking an alien attack, are controversial as they raise questions about the ethics of sacrificing lives for a so - called greater good.
In the 'Prometheus and the First People' story, Prometheus is very significant. He is the one who stole fire from the gods and gave it to the first people. This act of his changed the lives of humans completely. Fire brought warmth, protection from wild animals, and the ability to cook food, which was crucial for human development.
In Romantic period novels, 'Ozymandias' often represents the transience of power. It shows that no matter how great a ruler may seem in their time, their legacy will fade. For example, the once - mighty king Ozymandias in Shelley's poem, his broken statue in the desert is a symbol of the inevitable decay of all worldly power.
The themes explored in this graphic novel are quite profound. There is the theme of power and its consequences. Dr Manhattan's power makes him almost omnipotent, yet he struggles with his own sense of purpose and connection to others. Ozymandias' pursuit of power through his elaborate plan also has far - reaching implications. Another theme is the nature of heroism. Are Ozymandias' actions, although aimed at what he believes is the greater good, heroic? And what about Dr Manhattan? His power could be used for great good, but he seems to be more of a bystander in many situations.
Ozymandias is significant in the 'Watchmen Graphic Novel' as he represents the idea of the ultimate self - made man. He uses his own resources and intellect to try and solve the world's problems, albeit in a very controversial way. His character shows that good intentions can lead to very dark paths when not tempered with proper moral consideration.
Ozymandias is obviously a main character. He is the central figure around which the story of the fallen empire revolves. His presence, both in the past as a powerful ruler and in the remnants of his legacy in the present of the graphic novel, is a major part of the narrative.
I think the main theme is about the passage of time. The graphic novel depicts the ruins of what was once a great empire under Ozymandias. It shows how time has eroded the once - magnificent structures and the reputation of this powerful figure. Everything that was built in the name of power is now in shambles, which emphasizes the idea that time is relentless and no amount of power can stop its march.
