One of the big plot things in my story is that the “fuchsia” (the d-guys) end up fractured.
When my story was still about
romantic love changing the world, the d-guy leader was going to be in love with
a human slave girl. His desire to be with her would fracture his people (who
have, up until that point, been united).
What fractures them now is this: my d-guy leader taking a
stand against slavery.
The d-guys keep humans as
slaves.
They torture them in various
ways.
They see absolutely nothing wrong
with this.
Then my main girl – a half-breed
– enters their world.
My d-guy leader can’t help but
care for her, and in caring for her, his heart changes. (This is not a romantic
“caring” at all. Ew. If you only knew…)
His change of heart opens his
eyes.
So he will stand against
slavery, in all of its forms.
And the ones who still want
slavery will break off.
The people who have always been
united will shatter.
Oh fun. =)
