Born of a human mother and into shackles, Miryam becomes a healer among warriors and an enduring figure in Prythian’s history. She fights beside Mor and joins the struggle to free slaves, while her bond with Drakon becomes one of love and shared life. Though made immortal, she is described as having received long life rather than a new body; she and Drakon build a life together with their children. Their story ends in the Erythrian Sea, where the two are said to have drowned.
