1899 Series Ending Explained: What Happened to Prometheus? Who is The Mysterious Boy? Daniel and The Pyramid, The Mystery Explained
When the 1899 series begins, a ship called Prometheus has been missing for 4 months, but a message is sent to a new ship, Kerberos, and the captain decides to follow the message and go looking for its origin, to find the missing ship. What follows is a nightmare/madness, where the passengers begin to realize that there is something very strange going on. Ghost ships, mysterious children, strange pyramids and visions of the past appear everywhere, and Maura, the protagonist, soon discovers that she is a key piece in the puzzle.
The series from the creators of Dark (which is based on strange real cases) is complex and dense, the story transforms from one chapter to another and reveals that what we see is not reality, while the characters discover that what they are living is not what they think, and everything is connected with a pyramid, a creator and a series of characters who hide many secrets. Like Dark, 1899 is full of symbols and hidden meanings, but everything is carefully planned, and every detail has an explanation. Characters like Eyke and Maura are at the center of everything, and they all have something that brings us closer to the truth.
What Happened To Prometheus In 1899 Series?
When Prometheus is found, there seems to be no one on board, but then they find a surviving child and take it back to Kerberos, and that’s the start of all the trouble. The boy’s presence causes panic and a riot, and things get worse when Eyk finds Prometheus‘s passenger list burned, but in what’s left he manages to identify Maura‘s name, which is a sign of what happened. What happens is that the passengers of the Prometheus are the same as those of the Kerberos, but they do not remember it, since they were part of an experiment carried out by a man called The Creator, who is using the passengers to try to study more about the brain and the emotions.
Both ships are part of the experiment, and this is why Maura, Eyke and other passengers have “dreams” about their pasts. In Prometheus, they all disappeared because the experiment ends a cycle, which leads them to start all over again. Maura’s father turns out to be the owner of the ship company that Prometheus and Kerberus belong to, and everything that happens is part of his experiment, and there are many more ships involved, but really, it’s all part of the same simulation.
Who Is The Mysterious Boy In 1899?
On the ship Maura, Eyk and the rescue group come across a cabinet locked with an iron rod, and upon removing it they discover that there is a child locked inside, who does not seem to have the ability to speak, or does not want to. The boy has an object in his hands and, removing the cloth that covers it, he reveals that it is a small black pyramid, which he shows to Maura, and he has the same pyramid tattooed behind his ear.
As Maura tries to find answers, mysterious deaths occur on the Kerberos and, lacking any answers, the boy is blamed and the third-class passengers, who are something of a religious fanatic, convince everyone that he is the devil and throw him out of the sky. overboard, and that’s where we discovered a little more of the truth. The boy is a kind of traveler who can move between the ships, using the pyramid to return to Kerberos and to move in different ways in the timeline. The boy is named Elliot and is the son of Maura and Daniel.
Who is Daniel in 1899?
While Maura and Eyk board the Prometheus, a mysterious man boards the Kerberos and heads to room 1011, which belongs to Maura, where he places a small beetle that looks just like the one Maura sees in her visions and on Prometheus. Maura manages to see him the next morning and tells him that he looks familiar, but he tells her that they had not met before, but later it can be seen that he has a photo of her among his things.
Daniel has a “game” with the triangle symbols and starts moving them around in different ways, which causes something to happen to the ship, which is later revealed to be what killed Ada and several of the passengers. Little by little more details about Daniel is revealed and he says that he is Maura’s husband and that he has been trying to track her down for a long time and return to her to save her.
What is the Pyramid in 1899?
There are triangles everywhere, on earrings, on doors, on Maura Franklyn‘s necklace and on the neck of the mysterious boy who appears in Prometheus, plus Maura also sees them in visions she keeps having. These are not triangles, but instead, represent the pyramid that can be seen at the start of the series and plays an important role in the story.
The pyramid is a kind of artifact that is the key to finish or continue the simulation. Maura realizes that Daniel is her husband and that the boy is actually her son, and they have been working together to try to save her and break the cycle, but only Maura has the key to break the simulation and save all.
The pyramid opens with a key inside Maura’s necklace and that’s what the creator wants, who ends up revealing to Maura that she is the true creator and that she did it all as a way to escape her pain. . Afterwards, The Creator uses the key on the pyramid to start over, but Daniel changes the code so it doesn’t work.
What’s happening? Daniel reveals that Maura’s brother, not their father, is the one controlling the simulation now, so she needs to get out using the correct pyramid, this takes her out of the simulation and into a room where everyone is asleep, where she discovers that It is not 1899, but 2099 and that she and the rest of the “passengers” are on a ship in space, where she can finally discover the reality.
