When the chief delegate of Danland announces that Mount Eskel would be the home of the future princess, Miri is chosen, along with other eligible girls, to attend the Princess Academy. Miri is named after a small mountain flower, the miri flower which children make wishes on. She was fascinated by quarry speech, a thing that the workers used as a way of talking without speaking aloud because they had clay in their ears so they wouldn’t go deaf from the mallet blows. They grew up together and have always been best friends. Peder is her best friend who she has a crush on. As a result, she felt unwanted and assumes her small stature prevents her from being useful to her community. Also because she was born early she is very small with thin limbs and is too weak to work in the quarry. As a child, her father forbade her from setting foot in the quarry where the villagers work daily because that is where her mother died, and to him, Miri is her mother reborn. Miri was going to be named Linder but her Mother refused 'I don't want a daughter named after a stone,' and instead named Miri after the flower that conquered the rock and faced the sun. Nevertheless, her mother held her for a week straight before she died due to her injuries.

When Miri's mother was pregnant with her, she suffered a severe accident in the quarry while she was stone setting, and was seriously injured, Miri was born prematurely.
