Wednesday - Character Profile

Had to share with you this progress. Working on the Scene List for the book, and everything is falling into place nicely. There are going to be over 90 scenes in Man’s Damnation and as I am a huge fan of tinkering with where things go best, I am happy to say that 2/3 of the story is now set in stone, like Stonehenge stone, not going anywhere. 

I am still going to get you your lore update and character profile this evening, just got caught up in this mammoth project. Stay tuned and keep telling your friends and family!

Cheers!

Monday’s Lore Update! The Mother’s Grace Continued...

Wednesday Character Profile - Princess Arabella

After some feedback from writers and readers alike. I have reshaped some of the description of the novel to better reflect the story. I’d like to invite you to take a look at it and tell me what you think! As always your input is welcome and wanted. 

Future plans may include a title change...I’ll have you weigh in with some options soon! Here are the changes below! 

Reformed Synopsis:

It is 3002BCE. Mankind is subject to Fae law. Four young souls will rise as the ancient forces of the world continue their age-old feud. As MidSummer’s Eve approaches, the first and greatest world war will erupt once more between Man and the Fae.

Reformed About - Man’s Damnation

Our ancestors once lived in harmony with the creator. It was a Golden Age, where man lived in the fabled Garden of Eden where none suffered and all needs were fulfilled. The Primordial Goddess was their mother and her first child was Adam. 

Adam, the first man, and father of mankind was charged with the protection of her sacred creation. The power bestowed upon him proved too great for Adam thus was born the folly of man. The Goddess rested for the act of creation had drained her of her power. Adam was filled with hubris and named himself God among men. 

His pride corrupted the creation of the Goddess and perverted mankind. War between Adam and the Goddess raged in the heavens. The Fae, the siblings of mankind, waged war on their rebellious brothers and sisters. The Goddess claimed victory over Adam and mankind was banished from Eden and stripped of their ability to wield the gift of magic.

It is the year 3002 B.C.E. in the Silver Age. The Fae King Dagda rules over the four houses of the Seeley Court of Tír na nÓg. Mankind is scattered across the realms of Tír na nÓg and Tír nam Beo. Tensions between the Fae and Man are reaching a breaking point. As the Silver Age draws to a close the world will be thrown into chaos by the return of the Usurper Adam. Four young souls will rise as the ancient forces of the world continue their age-old feud. As MidSummer’s Eve approaches, the first and greatest world war will erupt once more between Man and the Fae.

What is Man’s Damnation about?

It is a tale of the forgotten past of mankind. Mankind was once a citizen of a mythical world where magic and science were two sides of the same coin. Where the destiny of our ancestors was forged by the righteousness of some men, and thwarted by the sins of others. It is the tale of humanity at its best and all time worst.

It is a tale that explores the Human Condition.

As a student of mythology, history, and philosophy I have always been curious about humanity’s past in relationship to its future. Our past is colored with vibrant stories of creatures, heroes, gods, and magic. Our future is wrought with challenges both environmental and social. How did we get here? Are we alone? Man’s Damnation attempts to answer the questions of the human condition through multiple perspectives.

OK That was Vague!

When you get down to the nitty-gritty, Man’s Damnation takes place around 3,000BCE before the Great Deluge that occurred according to mythology. Imagine great sprawling cities filled with all manner of mythological beings, throw in steam-driven technology, a sprinkling of druidic magic, a Fairy King, a drunken knight, and a history that stretches back thousands of years and you’ve got Man’s Damnation.

We’ve got Fairies, but they are big. We’ve got Elves, sort of because they shift into wolves. We’ve got dwarves, yes, but they are not Scottish and don’t all have beards. We’ve got Giants that hunt Dragons, Merfolk that become sea monsters, and we have Gods and Goddesses. If you’ve read about it in mythology, I am probably obsessed with it and have found a way to weave it into the book. Oh, and the main character is an angel, she’s pretty cool. There is a festival of epic proportions and a masquerade ball. Have I covered it all? Probably not, you’ll just have to read it and find out.

Happy Friday Bards!

My Co-Writer’s UpdateMy helpful Co-Writer, Gaia, decided that we should update you. 

She Writes, "ajhdauflealgaeaw`````````````"

She thinks it fits best in Chapter Four with the High Priestess, but I disagree. What do you think?

Cheers!
