December 31, 2022 at 4:47 pm #126971@lightoverdarkness6 YAY! Lol!
Okay…so…
Paxton’s father is actually….
One of Luna’s race….
DUN DUN DUNNNN!!!
YES! He’s a light elf!
Which makes Paxton part Light Elf as well, and also able to help Luna carry her bloodline (they don’t find this out till maybe the second series tho)
Idk this might change, this is just the idea rn….it’s kinda out there so idk if I’ll keep it or not, but we’ll see.
Even if I don’t keep it, yes, Paxton’s father is not a Fae. Now, Lilith, being the high society woman she is, and the Fae being the proud people they are, are not for inter racial marriages.
Lilith’s first husband (Edrich, Aramis and Soren’s father) was a Fae, but the marriage was not of love. It was done out of duty, and the only love Lilith found came from her first three sons.
When her first husband died, she found herself raising three sons on her own.
When she met Paxton’s father, who was not a Fae, but…was able to chip away at the Fae Woman’s tough heart. And he, being a kind soul (just like Paxton, and this is why Paxton is the way he is) fell in love with her, and she him.
But, he was still not a Fae, and she didn’t want to lose her social standing.
So she uses an ability she has (she has an ability that certain ppl, regardless of species, race, etc, can have) called Siren Call, and she uses it to make everyone believe her husband is a Fae just like everyone else.
But…when her husband is killed (while she’s pregnant), in her grief she gives birth prematurely, and is separated from Paxton.
She grieves and when she gets her bearings and finally sees her son for the first time…
She realizes why people have been whispering…
Her son has been born without wings.
And because people have already seen him, it’s too late to try and trick them.
With her husband, it was easy because no one ever saw him except her. But Paxton? She can’t fix this.
And worse, he’s the spitting image of her lost love.
So, grief stricken and bitter and hateful, Paxton becomes the object of all of her scorn and hate.

#ProtectSebDecember 31, 2022 at 4:50 pm #126973Whoa. I did not see that coming XD! Great job with the plot twist!! Oh, Paxton!! He’s so precious. I feel a little bad for Lilith now. Not a lot, but a little bit.

Oh my! I gotta say, what a plot! Like, I’m soooo intrigued! It’s so interesting- I love plots that have a villain that has a reason for their actions.
Wow, this sounds like an amazing book!!!
Like she’s mean because of her bitterness! Poor Paxton 😥 I wish I could give him a hug! How old is he when he meets Luna? Tell me if that’s to much of a spoiler, that’s ok, I just wanna know more XD

December 31, 2022 at 4:56 pm #126978@mineralizedwritings he’s just about to turn 11 when he meets Ara and the gang, so he’s 11 when he meets Luna (they meet her in the book after his)

any other questions??
Yes my poor baby goes thru it…thankfully Ara and them saves him, but until then…he’s not happy.

#ProtectSebDecember 31, 2022 at 5:09 pm #126990Sweet Paxton!!
Okay, so this one is one i’ve been wanting to ask for a while. Does Aramis get punished for what he’s done to Pax? Or, just what happens to Aramis?
#HugRikerSquad
December 31, 2022 at 5:24 pm #126997@lightoverdarkness6 ahh good question! Honestly I haven’t thought about this much…
But I would think something would need to be done obviously…
And really not just because of Paxton.
Aramis is actually a murderer too…
so there’s that. But more so then just Aramis, there’s Lilith, and all of the Fae, and even the Dryads, because eventually the whole story revolves around a war being begun and wiping out of the Mer, which is what both the Dryads and the Fae want (but the Fae are also wanting the Dryads outta there too. It’s one of those, “Yea we’re double crossing you too, but there’s double crossing inside the double crossing”
Yea…if u want to know really all about it…I can get into it…I’ll just have to get a bit more in-depth, and that’s if y’all want that of course.
Anyway, so in the end I’m thinking the Mer (who are actually the Good guys, and don’t want to completely overthrow the other two clans and start a war) end up victorious (with the help of Ara and the gang) and the Dryads submit to them
Meanwhile, the Fae, and their leader (which is Lilith and her sons at this point) must atone for their crimes, and are placed in an underwater prison for…
Well…
ever.
The rest of the Fae are forced to either submit or join their leaders in prison (of course the Fae are a proud people, and as such refuse to submit, despite being given opportune chance.)
The dryads however, are…a bit cowardice and easily submit when their queen is overthrown.
So yes they do pay for their crimes.
And Lilith is given one last chance before Ara leaves with Paxton to atone to her son for everything.
And…
She doesn’t take it.
And it’s then that Ara takes Paxton far away, to live with her, as her brother, to give him the life he deserves.

#ProtectSebDecember 31, 2022 at 5:26 pm #126999ACTUALLY….y’all I just had this idea….
But…I’m thinking Aramis actually loses his wings…
Probably in an accident/battle or something (and of course this is a major dishonor for all Fae) and this is…well…totally deserving for everything he’s done.

#ProtectSebDecember 31, 2022 at 5:44 pm #127013@godlyfantasy12 Wow….
*feels a bit sorry for Paxton’s mom but still, she shouldn’t have been so mean to the poor little guy!!*
Aramis definitely deserves that!!!! (Crosshair already nearly shot his wing off earlier, so I guess that was sorta foreshadowing!)
Some questions!!
So would any of Pax’s descendants have wings? Or is the gene entirely lost on him because of his hybrid lineage….
Is Luna the last of her kind? (Or at least last full-blooded member of her kind….Kinda like Toothless in How to Train your Dragon?)
If not, what did the Light-elves think of hybridization? Would they like Paxton or not?
Are any of the Fae species (besides Pax) eventually redeemed? How long do they live?
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
December 31, 2022 at 5:53 pm #127017@keilah-h great questions!!
Imma answer in order!
Ok I have thought of this! So Ik that Paxton has a son that I still haven’t decided if I want him to have wings…or if I just want him to have the feathers like his father his on his spine. Im considering maybe instead of where it’s only on his spine, his back is covered in feathers, or perhaps he is born without wings and has the spinal feathers but when he’s older wings grow in (which Is unheard of!) still gotta decide, but I do know his son will have some sort of feathers or something, his daughter may have something as well.
As for Luna, yes she is, unless I stick with my idea to have Paxton be Half Light-Elf. If he is half Light-Elf, then he’d technically also hold the bloodline/lineage of the light elves just as Luna does, and since it comes from his father it would be prevalent.
But otherwise, yes Luna is the last of her kind (not the last elf, but the last Light Elf)
As for what they thought of Interracial (that’s what I call it, because when dealing with elves and such, I refer to them as Races and cultures rather then species like animals would be) Marriages, they were fine with it and open to it.
But now, With Luna being the last of her kind, she feels the need and struggle of that since she’s the remaining of her race, thus when she and Paxton discovers that he is also Half Light-Elf.
Well…if they marry in the future, it would fix their problem.
But that brings complications of its own with adorable teen awkwardness 🤣
Thankfully they already kinda like each other.

#ProtectSebDecember 31, 2022 at 5:55 pm #127018OH I FORGOT UR LAST QUESTION!!
yes, I’m sure some Fae would be redeemed!
So there aren’t many Fae children just because The Fae are more of a warrior type, but the children that are there, even they are hardened and such.
But when everything happens, I’m thinking perhaps they realize that what they’re forefathers and parents have done is wrong, and when given the choice to separate or join the adults in prison, the children side with the Mer (most of them anyway) thus the Fae are redeemed, and form a unity with the Mer eventually for the future.

#ProtectSebDecember 31, 2022 at 5:55 pm #127019@godlyfantasy12 Aww okay, cool!!
Hey, maybe some sort of magic or technology gives Paxton wings in the future when he’s grown up so he can fly with his family!
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
December 31, 2022 at 5:56 pm #127020Oh, and awesome! I’m glad they finally make peace.
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
