The premiere page of 'Red Lantern - The Crimson Divine'
Red Lantern is a comic by
Rukis and
Alectorfencer, which will be posted right here on FA, and at http://www.red-lantern.net/, over the course of 2010-2011. Pages update Wednsdays.
On a small, isolated island run by ruthless gangs and powerful crime families lies a town of brothels and drug dens, serving all who come into port. The natural barrier of the sea makes escape for anyone nearly impossible, and most live out their lives with no hope of buying their freedom from the oppressive hyena gangs that own them.
Amon is one such indentured servant. Sold into the life from a young age, he's passed his 30th year, and approaching the end of his usefulness to his Madame. With far too much left to repay to earn his freedom, his outlook is bleak. And then, he is given the humiliating task of training his replacement, a young, exotic tiger whose naivete and innocence make his indoctrination into the brothel life even more difficult.
War rages in the waters surrounding the small Shanivaar islands, and naval soldiers are spilling into port in droves. Could these foreigners be the salvation the captive workers so gravely need, or do they bring nothing but danger from abroad?

It looks like the context behind this is a "seed" that's just ACHING to bloom into a story of untold depth...
I wish I was as adequate at conceptualization. I can't get past character interactions well enough to even give my characters a beautiful "world setting" to exist in...

I had a multitude of things in mind when I came up with this... (in my sleep, lol)
Too bad it's hard for me to retain beautiful concepts unless I'm physically active in my everyday life. That's an odd fact with me... ;_;

I honestly giggled when I read the "naval soldiers spilling into port" part...cause they're sea men...like semen...and they...yeah my immaturity is showing xP
Anyways, I really love the setting of this whole piece. The houses and set up of the port village are very believable to me and I adore the color scheme. I also like that the beaches don't look all sandy and pristine but more as if it's made mostly of clay and is thus used to make the huts/houses. Perhaps I'm thinking too much into it. Nevertheless though, I'm definitely looking forward to this comic ^^

Neither and both. This is a fictional setting, not an analogy for actual history. I am deliberately trying not to have analogous comparisons to real world societies, countries, and cultures. Similarly, I like to pick and choose different technological advances and historical milestones, so I refuse to commit! More fun that way : )
