Description
I explored many options for this scene. Did I want to zoom out and show more of the dilapidated structure and wintery landscape? (I do love my landscapes.) Did I want to show more of the beautiful palfrey named Lavender? In the end, I felt the most important message in the scene was the MC. I wanted the viewer to be drawn in and compelled to learn her story. Feel compelled? lol
Without further ado ...

They had ridden barely a mile, cutting through empty farmland. The road to Kas Mendoc lay before them. It wound through a shallow gully that had eroded over time with the passage of wind and water. Now the road resembled a stream, fed by rivulets of water running down the sides of the gully, flowing swiftly downhill.
“Look, there on the road!” said Lillian. She pulled her horse’s bridle, harder than she intended, and the animal came to a stop with an indignant snort. Sara and Emilan’s eyes followed Lillian’s outstretched arm. They strained to see through the sheets of icy rain blowing into their faces.
“Can you see him?” asked Lillian.
“Yes…I see him,” replied Sara, raising her voice above the storm.
A man lay motionless in the middle of the road. Nearby, a mule stood in the rain head held low in a picture of misery; Lillian saw that its bridle reins had caught in a fallen branch preventing it from finding shelter. The riders surveyed the scene in silence but Lillian began to fidget with growing unease.

This has got to be absolutely one of your very best works in my estimate, with its attention to detail and extremely fine texturing. Love the snow and frosted-over vegetation, and the gritty feel of the walls. Really good work.
May my hero sing for you a song of praise? :)
Thank you :D It was certainly one of my favorite projects to work on.
