A Dark Alternative: Chapter 6

Summary: In a world where the border between Xadia and the human lands never truly existed, humans and elves live along side each other, but not together. Years ago, Callum made an unlikely friend, one he thought long lost to time. By chance, their paths cross again, but considering how much they’ve both changed, is it possible to rekindle their friendship? Or have their differences become too much to overcome?

Pairing: Rayla/Callum

Rating: Mature

AO3 Link: A Dark Alternative

Callum blinked at her for a few moments, clearly trying to figure out if she was serious or not. “A ghost?” He asked, his voice skeptical.

Rayla shrugged, leaning back against the wall behind her. Though she could never escape the fact, she hadn’t admitted she was Ghosted out loud to anyone. It was enough knowing she was a Ghost, seeing the blank faces of the other Moonshadow elves or the whispers from the other groups. Even if they didn’t have the necessary magic to shun her like her own people did, no elf wanted anything to do with a Ghost, no matter what their primal connection.

Not here anyway. She’d heard of other places, places where someone like her could go and not be immediately judged. Places where other Ghosts lived, shunning the society that shunned them, but she couldn’t bring herself to leave Ethari and Runaan, even if they had essentially left her.

Callum continued to stare at her, clearly trying to figure out what she was saying. She had no idea what humans knew of things like Ghosting.

Just Rayllum chilling in the shade :) I really wanted to add Stela to this picture, but ran out of patience at the end... sorry (maybe one day I will go back and add her). :<

July 5th: Hands/Touch-starved

Some perfectly innocent handsy stuff with the help of good ol Pinterest. Rayla deserves to get her itty bitty hands hold by Callum's big ones

On this early concept art Rayla had green eyes. Even though her later design got changed, I really hope that one day in the future, when Rayla and Callum have children, they will have a daughter who looks like her, because I really love the style of this early concept (maybe the 4 horns not so much, but pretty much everything else looks so cool - and the green eyes and white hair just fits ;)

Here are some of our early concept art of Callum, Rayla, and Claudia by one of our artists, ctchrysler!

Rayla snorted, smiling a little. “Any secret tunnels or dungeons?” She narrowed her eyes playfully at him, actually seeming interested in the topic.

Callum perked up a little, smiling himself. The Rayla he remembered from his childhood was peeking out from behind the cold veneer of before. “There are actually.” Rayla’s eyebrows raised in apparent surprise and so he continued. “Well, secret passages anyway. I’m not sure about dungeons, but maybe?”

“You haven’t looked?” She sounded unimpressed, a disbelieving frown on her face.

“Well, secret dungeons are usually secret for a reason,” he explained. “And it’s not like I’d go sneaking around specifically looking for one. What use would I even have for a dungeon?”

“I don’t know. I haven’t seen you in fifteen odd years.” She smirked, blushing a little as she briefly looked back at where she was still scratching at the table. “Maybe you’re into whips and chains now.”
