Sha Miara, Luminous Queen of the Ninecloud Court
Sha Miara is the Monarch of the Ninecloud Court. She rules over Ninecloud continent. Suriel takes Lindon to secretly watch her coronation in book 1. Sha Miara is young, only age 16. A teenager. Petulant at times. Sha Miara inherited her mother’s Bloodline Abilities — the Royal Sha madra
Her Mother, Sha Leiala
- The former Monarch, Sha Leiala, is dead. She died sometime before or during book 1, Unsouled, but it was off-screen.
- The royal family is keeping her death a secret.
Sha Leiala? Lindon thought. [Monarch of the Ninecloud Court,] Dross explained. [Do you not understand how to pick up on context clues?] What about Sha Miara? Lindon asked. Suriel had taken him to her coronation two years before. [Never heard of her.] (Uncrowned, ch 8)
- Leiala would never have supported Reigan Shen in her lifetime. According to Akura Malice, she detested him.
- But her daughter Sha Miara does support the lion.
Tournament
The Ninecloud Court hosted the 18th Uncrowned King Tournament. Sha Miara competed, even though she has advanced far beyond Underlord.
Sha Miara, Luminous Queen of the Ninecloud Court, throws a tantrum. She wants to fight in the tournament. Her tutors have reached the end of their patience; there is no sport in sending a Monarch to do battle with Underlords. She’ll keep her power veiled, she insists. She will compete fairly, and no one will recognize her. When they continue to deny her, her wails conjure a storm indoors. (Underlord epilogue)
“Sha Miara publicly claimed to be an Underlady from a distant branch of the royal family, but Charity doubted that.” (Uncrowned). She rapidly lost to Eithan Arelius and threw a little tantrum (Wintersteel, ch 3)
