Hello Nel, and welcome to ATARNotes :)

This prompt is most definitely a multifaceted one, with several parts to dissect and flesh out. However, for the sake of your own development in English and those helping you out, I'd encourage you to pinpoint a particular part of this prompt that you are taking issue with. If you are able to narrow down complexities, you will find that you will have a focus, and something to improve on for the next prompt.

If you find that it is the whole prompt that is overwhelming, I'd suggest that you find the relationship between injustice, betrayal and revenge. Working on the connection should lead to a nice, holistic interpretation.

You've immediately got your three paragraphs mapped out, discussing injustice, betrayal and revenge in a paragraph each. I'd agree with Clarke though and try at first to see the connections between the three parts of the prompt.
