I'm currently writing a novel, and I'm wondering about certain plot point...
In this world the humans barely survived a war against the elves (they kind of deserved it, to be honest) and are now confined in a small area of the world, with the constant threat of being wiped out if they venture out of their set limits, of course that generates some resentments... the thing is, barely anyone has seen the elves in almost 20 years, yet most people hate them as a pure concept.
My protagonist is witness of the almost lynching of an elf woman caught by pure chance in a small town near the limits, he saves her and after seeing her so weak and helpless, he can't keep that mental image of them being supernatural evil monsters, he had spent most of his life resenting the elves because his father died in the war (he didn't even get to know his father) but now he finds himself feeling a weird kind of fascination/obsession with this elf woman (not in a completely healthy way).
Just to get it out of the way, the elves in my setting are not particularly beautiful, as they are way too thin and with some disturbing inhuman features.
Could this be possible? Any suggestions?
