Did some drawing again tonight. I don't think I have put much up at all about the Sharns before? These are the main bad peeps in the Phantom Noir who Adham and Erdem unit together to fight. The sharns are the advanced people with the most powerful soldiers and equipment. They have control over all the people in the lands and use corruption and force etc to keep on top. They are called the grand protectorate but just use various people from the North and South for their gain. They have strict laws on the size of armies and the progression of technology. Each great house has to make a certain number of soldiers redundant to keep the numbers down. Adham secretly takes up all the soldiers who have been given the boot in the north and starts to have them trained to make them elite (The Phantom Noir). Erdem in the South is brought up in Exile after the Sharns do away with his father the Sultan as they don't want him to have the power his father, Kadir had. Erdem learns of all of this when he's older of course.
There are 3 stories to the main Phantom noir tale (about Adham & Sophia). The pic I did in the previous entry with the girl and the man done up in medieval styled gear is from the part called "Phantom-noir Bloodlines) which has Sharns in it along with one other tale that goes before that and that's the one with Idas in it. It all falls into place and is in much more/better detail and I will start drawing the story very soon I promise.
