Editing Mira (Spartacus) (section)

=== Vengeance ===
In the aftermath of the breakout, Mira and Spartacus form a romantic relationship. While Mira finds happiness in their union, Spartacus remains emotionally tied to the memory of his late wife, Sura. His inability to fully open up to her causes Mira deep pain.

Mira suggests that the rebels would have better chances of survival in the mountains rather than the sewers of Capua. Spartacus agrees with her reasoning, but when she asks why they remain, he remains silent. Mira, however, already suspects the truth behind his reluctance.

The rebels soon learn that Gaius Claudius Glaber is marching toward them with an army of Roman soldiers. While most agree that fleeing is the safest option, Spartacus insists they are ready to face the Romans in battle. This stance is met with opposition from [[Oenomaus (Blood and Sand)|Oenomaus]], Crixus, and Mira, who challenge his judgment. Mira eventually persuades Spartacus to abandon Capua and focus on finding Naevia with Crixus.

The following morning, Mira wakes to discover Spartacus has left without warning to confront Glaber alone. His reckless actions nearly result in his death, but he is rescued at the last moment by Crixus and the other rebels. Back in the sewers, Mira angrily confronts him, likening his actions to those of a reckless and vengeful boy. Spartacus retorts that he cannot allow Glaber to live after all he has done to him and his wife. Mira counters by urging him to see the bigger picture—that all the escaped slaves depend on him if they are ever to achieve true freedom.

The rebels invade a nearby villa, recruiting its enslaved inhabitants to their cause. During this time, Mira has a conversation with Chadara, whose remarks cause her to question the depth of her relationship with Spartacus and her significance in his life. Despite this, Mira grows more determined, joining Spartacus on missions and adopting a more serious and fearless demeanor.

During the mission to rescue Naevia from the Mines, Mira takes on a crucial role. Disguised as newly acquired slaves, the rebels infiltrate the Mines with [[Nasir (Spartacus)|Nasir]] posing as a messenger for the fictitious slaver, Ferox. Mira offers to retrieve a map from the overseer’s tent, using her wits and bravery to gain access. When the overseer attempts to assault her, she turns the situation in her favor, using his own knife to threaten him into revealing Naevia’s location. However, when he tries to attack her, she kills him in self-defense.

After freeing Naevia, the rebels are pursued by Marcus and his forces. Mira proves her growing combat prowess by killing a soldier during the chase. As casualties mount and Nasir is injured, Spartacus begins to blame himself, but Mira reassures him, saying that his actions have led to their newfound freedom.

When Marcus and his men confront them, Mira attempts to aid Spartacus in the battle but is knocked down. Spartacus intervenes, injuring Marcus and defeating the soldiers. The next day, as the group reaches Mount Vesuvius, they spot approaching figures. Spartacus urges Mira to take the others and flee, but she refuses, determined to stay by his side. The tension dissipates when the figures reveal themselves to be [[Agron (Spartacus)|Agron]] and other returning rebels.

The group establishes a base at the Vesuvius Temple, where they meet [[Lucius Caelius]], a Roman hermit who has turned against his people. Through him, the rebels learn of Crixus’ survival and impending execution at the Arena. Spartacus devises a rescue plan, with Mira playing a key role. While Spartacus and Agron infiltrate the Arena in disguise, Mira’s group is tasked with causing a massive distraction by destroying the structure itself.

Mira’s team successfully brings down the Arena, killing many Romans and allowing Spartacus to rescue Crixus and Oenomaus amidst the chaos. The mission solidifies her value to the rebellion and her evolution from a timid slave to a formidable and resourceful fighter.

After the fall of the Arena, the rebels begin preparing for the impending confrontation with Glaber and his forces. Under Lucius Caelius' guidance, Mira develops a friendship with him and learns to use a bow and arrow, quickly becoming highly skilled.

When Spartacus and [[Gannicus (Blood and Sand)|Gannicus]] engage in a duel, Mira wishes to intervene but is advised to respect the fight. During the battle, she notices Chadara attempting to sneak away. Picking up her bow, Mira fires an arrow to stop her but accidentally kills Chadara. She then reveals that Chadara was planning to betray the rebels and frame Gannicus.

Despite the growing bond between Mira and Spartacus, she remains troubled by his lingering love for his deceased wife, Sura. Their relationship is further strained when Gannicus returns to camp with Ilithyia as a captive. Spartacus hesitates to harm Ilithyia, especially after she claims her unborn child is his. Mira, unwilling to see Spartacus kill the child—or one claimed to be his—takes matters into her own hands and attempts to strangle Ilithyia. Spartacus stops her, and Ilithyia is eventually released into the woods after Glaber dismissively states that her fate is of no concern to him, even inviting Spartacus to kill her.

Following Ilithyia's release, Mira notices a change in Spartacus. He grows distant, no longer sleeping beside her and speaking to her only to issue commands. When confronted, Spartacus admits their relationship is over, stating it ended because she tried to kill Ilithyia for the wrong reasons. Mira counters that she only wanted more of his love, but Spartacus replies that he had given her all that was left of his heart. Mira retorts that it wasn't enough, to which Spartacus quietly agrees.

To unite the Rebels, Spartacus devises a plan involving a staged attack on a cart of wine. The ploy brings everyone together as they feast and participate in team-based challenges. Mira is paired with Saxa, and the two work seamlessly to defeat their opponents. They celebrate their victory exuberantly, with Saxa even kissing Mira in gratitude.

Meanwhile, Ashur discovers Spartacus' hideout and shares the information with Glaber, who launches an attack with a large army. The Rebels retreat to the barren heights of Mount Vesuvius, leveraging its elevation for strategic advantage. When a group of restless Germans recklessly tries to break through the Roman forces, Spartacus, Mira, Gannicus, and others intervene to save them.

During the chaos, Mira sacrifices herself to save Spartacus, falling to [[Salvius (Spartacus)|Salvius]]’ axe, which had been aimed at him. Spartacus carries her body to the mountain's peak, where he wraps her in cloth and vines, creating a makeshift casket. The act of weaving vines gives Spartacus the idea to craft ropes that allow the Rebels to descend the unguarded side of the mountain. Mira’s death becomes a pivotal moment, inspiring the Rebels to escape and ultimately triumph over the Romans. Spartacus avenges her by killing both Salvius and Glaber.
