 ===== Background =====
-Mira Reis was born aboard the *Last Frontier* and grew up among the ship’s maintenance crews and musicians who kept morale alive during the long voyage. After the crash on [[the_planet_voi_700_d|VOI 700 D]], she survived severe burns when a corridor near the ship’s port reactor ignited during re-entry. Half her face was scarred before an unknown rescuer pulled her from the flames — an event that shaped the rest of her life.
+Mira Reis’ parents were part of the Last Frontier’s musician scene who kept morale alive during the long journey. In her teenage years, Mira showed remarkable talent as well, although she refused to cover [[earth_pop|Earth Pop]] classics as most entertainers — including her parents — did. Instead, she sang her own lyrics and songs about life on the spaceship, the endless stars, and the fragile bonds between the passengers who called the vessel their home.
-In the years that followed, Mira wandered the new settlements as a performer, carrying a patched banjo she had repaired from shipboard scrap. She wrote and performed *“The Last Horizon”*, a haunting ballad about the *Last Frontier*’s fall and the fear of dying among the stars. The song became a whispered hymn among settlers and couriers traveling the [[trade_route|Trade Route]], earning her modest fame and deep respect.
+After the crash on [[the_planet_voi_700_d|VOI 700 D]], she survived severe burns when a corridor near the ship’s port reactor ignited during re-entry. Half her face was scarred before an unknown rescuer pulled her from the flames — an event that shaped the rest of her life.
+In the aftermath, Mira found it increasingly difficult to be hired for stage performances. Pub owners and saloon managers across the early settlements told her that her appearance reminded people of the tragedy they were trying to forget. Even those who had once loved her performances as a young girl aboard the Last Frontier avoided offering her work, claiming that “people want to move on and have fun.” Only one man — [[guy_mikkelstein|Guy Mikkelstein]] of [[saloon_gloria|Saloon Gloria]] in [[firetown|Firetown]] — gave her a stage, saying that her songs “sounded like the truth people were afraid to hear.”
+From there, she began performing for travelers, couriers, and miners along the [[trade_route|Trade Route]], where her voice mattered more than her face. During this time, she wrote “[[the_last_horizon|The Last Horizon]],” a haunting ballad about the Last Frontier’s fall and the fear of dying among the stars. Though deeply moving, the song never gained much attention during her lifetime — the Weber Broadcasting Service refused to air it, preferring the upbeat familiarity of Earth Pop that dominated public demand.
+In 2628, she was shot by a still-unknown assailant during an incident in Firetown’s Entertainment District. The case remains cold.
+After her death, however, “The Last Horizon” spread quietly through couriers and wanderers, becoming a whispered hymn of remembrance among settlers who had lost more than they could ever name. It remains one of the most haunting testaments to the early Beta Age — a voice of grief and defiance carried through endless night.
-By 2631, she regularly rode with the [[firetown_courier_service|Firetown Courier Service]], singing in saloons and inns along the route between [[new_kourou|New Kourou]] and [[firetown|Firetown]].
