These characters were the "winners" of the "Indie Games Damsel Poll" I set up long ago. Special thanks goes to pascalofpiers.deviantart.com/  for choosing the ten competing pairs of damsels and thank you for  voting. Vex'ahlia is owned by the fellows over at "Critical Role" and  Minerelle is owned by the legendary D&D player "Poorweather."

It  was a crisp winter day late in the season. Thick clots of snow hung off  of withered tree branches that had long since been denuded of their  leaves. There was a chill in the air but the sun climbing ever higher  into the sky had allowed a momentary thaw. The snow crunched under  Minerelle's feet as she trekked, looking in the places where the snow  had begun to melt. She was searching for "smart rocks", or possibly her  next of kin. Anything interesting really. She saw a boulder here, a tree  there, even the occasional weed that had gambled against fate and  assumed that spring was near. A thick winter apple hanging from a low  branch had felt the same way. Minerelle twisted it off in passing and  held it in her left hand.
 

They had guessed correctly. Spring was  approaching, and so was a conspicuous clip clopping sound paired with a  seemingly more remote jingling. Standing far from anything that  resembled a road, Minerelle prepared herself for an attack. A most  peculiar sect of bandits were known to be active in this region...

Minerelle Orr: "Hey Centelftaur do you want an apple?"
