=== Early Life and Conception === | === Early Life and Conception === | ||
Mîra's journey began long before her birth, as her mother, [[Lesîa Vîzra Ûrlek|Queen Lesîa]], struggled for over three centuries to conceive. The Valorîin lifespan, while long, does not guarantee easy conception. With the large gaps between fertility cycles and Lesîa's inability to bear a child, [[Lesîa Vîzra Ûrlek|Queen Lesîa]] had begun to think her line would end and the prophecy surrounding her lineage would die. | |||

Drawing upon ancient Kwin'harin knowledge, Volîna prepared a potent fertility agent that utilized rare herbs and alchemical processes. This old remedy finally enabled Lesîa to conceive, and Mîra was born as the long-awaited heiress to the [[First Valorîin Kingdom]]. | ||

Mîra's entire world shattered in her twenties when her mother, [[Lesîa Vîzra Ûrlek|Queen Lesîa]], was attacked beyond the [[Royal Grounds]]. The entity left a festering black wound on Lesîa's arm. The corruption spread rapidly, twisting her flesh until her body could no longer endure it. | |||

=== Merik's Memory Transfer === | === Merik's Memory Transfer === | ||
One of the most defining moments in ''' | One of the most defining moments in '''Mîra's relationship with [[Merik Teslek|Merik]]''' was their [[Telepathic Transfer|Memory Transfer]], a powerful psionic exchange meant to accelerate her understanding of his teachings. Initially, it was intended as a practical shortcut, allowing her to absorb knowledge in mere hours rather than years. However, the moment their minds connected, Mîra realized it was far more than just an instructional tool—it was '''an intimate merging of their very souls'''. For the first time, she saw '''[[Merik Teslek|Merik]] completely unguarded''', his emotions and memories laid bare. Though he tried to hold back his deepest thoughts, she '''felt the weight of his pain, his fears, and the love he had buried so deeply even he feared to acknowledge it'''. | ||
The connection between them became '''a temporary [[Soul-Tether]]''', something neither had anticipated nor fully understood. Though not the permanent bond of [[Lifemates ( | The connection between them became '''a temporary [[Soul-Tether]]''', something neither had anticipated nor fully understood. Though not the permanent bond of [[Lifemates (Valorîin)|Lifemates]], the experience left a mark on both of them, forging a link that went beyond mere knowledge. Mîra, despite her initial eagerness to learn, soon found herself '''overwhelmed by the sheer intensity of what [[Merik Teslek|Merik]] had endured'''. Yet, rather than pulling away, she '''embraced it, embraced him''', determined to carry part of his burden. By the time the transfer ended, they were '''forever changed''', the distance between them irrevocably closed. And though Merik still feared the future, still hesitated to make promises he wasn't sure he could keep, Mîra knew one thing for certain—'''she would never let him bear his burdens alone again'''. | ||
=== The Vulgromiis & Breaking Tradition === | === The Vulgromiis & Breaking Tradition === | ||
Mîra was turned to the [[Vulgromiis]] by her [[Kîta Paakovich Vîzra|grandmother]] and [[Ig'nar Vîzra|grandfather]], a rare plant capable of suppressing [[The Curse (Valorîin)|The Curse]]. Consuming it came at a price—it was vile beyond words, causing intense nausea, paranoia, and delirium. | |||
During this time, | During this time, Mîra ''boldly rejected'' taboos surrounding courtship and physical affection, embracing her love for Merik even before their binding. Traditional [[Valorîin Courtship]] forbade physical contact before bonding. Yet, as she and Merik grew closer, she began to challenge this restraint. The first time they truly touched, the air between them cracked with tension—their ancestors would have been ''frothing'' at the transgression. It was also [[Merik Teslek|Merik]] and her belief, that somehow, their ancestors were celebrating—the thirteen-[[Lethurîan Standard Calendar|Lethurîan-years]] apart saving themselves for one another. | ||
'''Defying Tradition:''' | '''Defying Tradition:''' Mîra boldly rejected taboos surrounding courtship and physical affection, embracing her love for Merik even before their binding. Her courage and passion set her apart as a trailblazer unafraid to challenge convention. | ||

Over time, | Over time, Mîra came to love this new Merik, not just the memory of him. He was different, yes—but he was still hers. Through patience, devotion, and the [[Dero'bôkor|Dero'bôkor]], she helped mend his fractured soul. | ||

Mîra and Merik's destinies intertwined through their [[The Binding (Valorîin)|Binding]], a sacred act that telepathically merged their minds and unlocked their full potential. In this transformative moment, they became the '''Chosen Hero and Heroine''', symbols of unity and hope for the [[Free Species]]. | |||
=== | === Mîra as General Commander === | ||
Mîra and Merik jointly led the First Valorîin Kingdom's counteroffensive against the Malisik Horde.

The [[War on | The [[War on Ûvlâ]] reached a dead halt as they arrived a [[Qoev'baka]]. The [[Malisik Inquisition]] had created an [[Near-Space]] Battery Array, north of [[Qoev'baka]]. With [[Merik Teslek|Merik's]] brutal [[Mind Probe|Mind probing]] of an [[Ok'tlugarg]] lieutenant, she discovered the extent of the array that was keeping them from surveying with drones and moving north. | ||
Mîra and [[Merik Teslek|Merik's]] next major mission involved infiltrating [[Qoev'baka]], a dense, dark, and deadly jungle, to sabotage the [[Malisik Inquisition|Malisik Inquisition's]] [[Aerial Battery Array]]. With [[Merik Teslek|Merik's]] intimate knowledge of the terrain, she and [[Merik Teslek]] led a strike team through the depths. They traverse the near constant dark for over a [[Lethurîan Standard Calendar|Lethurîan-Month]]. | |||

=== End of the [[War on Ûvlâ]] and Death of King Zûrik === | |||
After the successful final battle against the [[Malisik Horde]] inside the [[Polar Crown (Ûvlâ)|Polar Crown]], Mîra and [[Merik Teslek|Merik]] discovered the [[Sacred Circle]] on [[Ûvlâ]]. Here they communed with [[Kelbân Debûr]] the [[Nâ'ôna]] whom had bestowed upon them the [[Element of Life]] and [[Element of Earth|Earth]]. He instilled in them the knowledge of the [[The Chosen's Quest]]. They were to perform multiple pilgrimages across [[Yedistren]] to gain all of the [[Elements of It'slâmwâ]]. This was their next task. [[Kelbân Debûr]] also explained that ultimately [[The Prophecy (The Chosen)|the Prophecy]] that had been made by the Ancient [[Merek Tetorak|Hero]] and [[Maira Kûlaron Tetorak|Heroine]], was to bring about the destruction of [[the Malismorâ]]. After imparting this knowledge [[Kelbân Debûr|Kelbân]] ascended and Mîra and [[Merik Teslek|Merik]] were left with returning home. | |||
When they arrived at [[Ûrlek-Teslek Manor|their Manor]] they discovered [[Valorîin Royal Guard|Valorîin Royal Guards]] outside. They entered an found [[Kîta Vakovich Vîzra|Queen Kîta]], [[Ig'nar Vîzra|King Ig'nar]], and [[Zûrik Ûrlek|King Zûrik]]. [[Zûrik Ûrlek|King Zûrik]] lay in a hospital bed. He was nearing his [[Trascendance]], [[Lesîa Vîzra Ûrlek|Queen Lesîa]] was calling him to [[It'slâmwâ]]. He gave Mîra and [[Merik Teslek|Merik]] a book he had written called [[Legacy of the Chosen]], it had been written in cooperation with [[Nâ'ôna]] and was to guide them on [[the Chosen's Quest]]. [[Zûrik Ûrlek|King Zûrik]] also prophesied of [[Merik Teslek]] death at the hands of [[the Malismorâ]]. With this he [[Trascendance|Trascended]]. | |||
=== Ascension to Deityhood === | |||
Mîra and [[Merik Teslek|Merik]] after the end of the [[War on Ûvlâ]], began to study in their Library within [[Ûrlek-Teslek Manor|their manor]], their they discovered that [[Zûrik Ûrlek|King Zûrik's]] life's work was within possibly his life after [[Lesîa Vîzra Ûrlek|Queen Lesîa]] passed. There were thousands of translated works by [[Zûrik Ûrlek|King Zûrik]] and billions of books, within the [[Data Orb (Lethurîa)|Data Orb]] given to them by [[Zûrik Ûrlek|King Zûrik]] at their [[The Binding (Valorîin)|Binding]]. | |||
Within six [[Lethurîan Standard Calendar|Lethurîan Months]] or roughly two [[Tîran Calendar|Tîran Years]] they decided to head out on [[The Chosen's Quest]]. They traveled to [[Durge'ha]], [[Tokrau]], [[Hromdûr]], [[Wâtzar]], [[Bolendûr]], and [[Aldmendel]]. After retrieving the last of the [[Elements of It'slâmwâ]] they were transformed and ascended to [[Deity (Lethurîa)|Deityhood]]. | |||

Mîra experienced ''one of the most profound'' losses of her life when [[Merik Teslek|Merik]] was slain in battle against [[Morâ|Malismorâ]]. She ''witnessed in horror'' as [[Morâ|Malismorâ]] drove his blade through [[Merik Teslek|Merik's]] chest, leaving him to bleed out in her arms. Full of unrelenting rage and sorrow, Mîra retaliated, wielding '''[[Malis Aikodus]]''' and '''[[Malis Erodus]]''' to behead [[The Malismorâ]]. | |||
Grief consumed her. She tried to ''heal him for over an hour'', reciting every incantation she knew, not even the [[Element of Life]] healed him. His body did not respond. She wailed over his lifeless form for ''hours'', unable to process that he was truly gone. Her pain was so deep that she took her [[Ûk]], a sacred blade, and prepared to end her own life, believing she could not live in a world without her [[Merik Teslek|Merik]]. | Grief consumed her.
