   CHALLENGE: Mirrepeople Portraits

It's MerMay everyone! This week's challenge, brought to you by Mirre, is to make a protagonist and an antagonist that are merpeople (ex: mermaids, mermen, sirens, selkies, etc).

Taking inspiration from games such as Stardew Valley and CrossCode, design a dialogue portrait/bust for one protagonist, and one antagonist. Each portrait 80x96px using one of the provided palettes, no mixing the palettes between them.  You have to use palette MERFOLK11-1 for one portrait and MERFOLK11-2 for the other portrait.

Adding a few pixel wide or transparent frame to each portrait is allowed.

Canvas Size - Exactly 160x96px horizontal (two portraits of 80x95px).
Colors - Max 22 (using both of the provided palettes - one for each portrait).
Transparency - Optional.
Animation - No.
