The second individual could also be a girl based on her dress that is a golden tunic covering only one shoulder. She wears thick golden cuffs around her biceps on both arms. She has a matching thick golden choker around her neck. Her head his tilted in a bored manner an dher legs relaxed. Her hands are clasped in her lap.

His hand is sheilding his eyes from the sun although looking for something that has not yet arrived. he has a crecent shaped pattern on his upper body, done in blue. The backround of the drawing is also blue. None of the faces show too many details.
