Description

(Sighs) I am out of inspiration again, so I decided to publish this old sketch

Copy/Paste from my Tumblr account:

Ruslana (the red hair girl) and Farah (the Arab looking girl) are from a Saint Seiya Story in c.1000 AD (Put circa, because both of their books tells a different time period and Athena doesn't remember that era very well) the two of them are the one that tells the story of this Holy War.

Ruslana was born in Kievan Rus. Her parents were executed when they were caught worshiping the god Odin for help and to withstand the oppression after all of their people got converted into Christianity. Her being a child, she was actually let go to work for the landlord until she was bought by a recruiter. In Sanctuary she’s a healer and in her spare time she writes everything about what’s going on in the place with an objective matter and not relating on the personal view of things. She also had an affair with the Aquarius Saint and had a son with him, but both the affair and the child secret, since she was already looked down on other people for being a female that was literate enough, she did not wanted to have another problem by letting other people know that. She died at the age of 18, when she and her team got ambushed on a mission to get to the legendary Heinstein Castle to break the seal with Athena’s sword. Her son Orestes became a civilian, but his traits as a Saint are really well known.

Farah, she was from the Alz-Ad tribe until her parents married her off to some old person she did not even meet him. She was always a piece of work as a wife, being always so rebellious and stubborn (not to mention that she refused his husband so many times) that his beloved got sick and tired and divorced her. But instead of going back to her home, like she was supposed to, she ran away as far as she could. She ended up Anatolia, on grounds of the Byzantine Empire and that’s how she got to Sanctuary. Although she was never appreciated as a Saint for the grounds of her being a Muslim, they did appreciated her for her intellect and the fact she's really literate. She actually survives the Holy War, because of an injury that rendered her useless to become a Saint and got kicked out of Sanctuary and from that point forward she has to live in the Byzantine Empire as a citizen.

BTW: Ruslana doesn't use fur on Summer/Spring, she's not that dumb (And yes, she uses leg warmers and everything, it's only that when I am detailed is when I work better on the fur), and well Farah is really fancy, she usually dresses like that but when she has to put the Indus Cloth she takes off the jacket.

Both of them never worked together because of their different styles they wrote the history of their Era (Farah went personal and wrote it as a form of poetry/tale. Ruslana wrote it very dry and objective), but both literature are in Greek and are hidden in the personal library of the Pope.

Ugh, hope you like it.

I really, really like these two. I love historian like characters, and I love that they have such different styles of doing it!
