I may be on the quest for my white whale. I've been working on an urban fantasy where an editor has made a request for a full. However, based on the partial, she asked that with respect to the world building I give more explanation as to the interaction between the human and supernatural elements.
I have the mythology already written (it was just for my use to understand the world). However, I am unsure as to how I can reveal more about the world without the inevitable info dump. My protagonist knows of the two worlds and their histories, but is trying to pass in the human world. There really isn't a good way to have him sit down and explain the differences through dialogue.
Any suggestions or devices which you guys have seen that you found to be effective would be greatly appreciated.
