[[Miyani]] is known to be the "keeper of the [[Mystic Forge]]"<ref>[[Ridhais#Dialogue]]</ref> and is located in the [[Trader's Forum]] next to the Mystic Forge itself, selling [[mystic item]]s for [[spirit shard]]s, [[Miyani#Mystic Recipes|mystic recipe]]s for [[coin]], and offering information about how to use the forge. She is a refugee who brought the [[djinn]] [[Zommoros]] with her when she fled from [[Elona]]. She survived the attack on [[Lion's Arch]] and was temporarily located in the [[Vigil Keep]] in [[Gendarran Fields]] during the [[Escape from Lion's Arch]] and [[Battle for Lion's Arch]], before returning with both Zommoros and the Mystic Forge to Lion's Arch.

== Biography ==
=== Early years ===
While travelling east from [[Amnoon]], Miyani eventually met with the water [[djinn]] Zommoros when she discovered him and three other djinn arguing about which of the four elements was superior in the desert. When Miyani ended the argument by declaring that water was the most useful element to humanity and thus superior to other elements, Zommoros was pleased by the answer and guided her through the [[Crystal Desert]] as far as his disposition would allow him. The two eventually left Elona behind together and travelled to Kryta.<ref>[[The Four Djinn]]</ref>

Once she and Zommoros had settled into [[Lion's Arch]], Miyani managed business between the Mystic Forge and its customers. Occasionally Zommoros would speak through Miyani, rarely granting audience to anyone else in addition to rarely leaving his domain.<ref name="Zommoros's Research Notes">[[Zommoros's Research Notes]]</ref>

Despite spending much time together with Zommoros, Miyani was never told much about her djinn companion, instead he chose to tell her stories of Elona to ease Miyani's mind about the fate of her people under [[Palawa Joko]]'s oppressive regime. However, Miyani noticed that Zommoros hid his loneliness under a boastful and arrogant attitude while secretly yearning for companionship, and that he liked having Miyani to talk to.

=== [[Living World Season 1]] ===
In 1326 [[Mouvelian calendar|AE]], a swarm of unidentified crustacean creatures [[Lost Shores|invaded]] Lion's Arch. After the initial attack had been thwarted, Lion's Arch started collecting donations to secure their defenses, and ready a counterattack against the karka. Miyani convinced Zommoros to aid the city's efforts by packaging the resources for easy shipping, and even temporarily sold the packing paper needed to do so.<ref>[[Lionguard Lyns#Dialogue]]</ref> During this time, adventurers sought out Miyani for any information about these mysterious new creatures. She let them briefly converse with Zommoros who spoke about ancient times, claiming to remember when the [[Tyria (world)|world]] was emptier and the continents were a different shape, and revealed the identity of the new enemy as the [[karka]]. Zommoros suggested that the adventurers seek out other ocean dwellers such as [[quaggan]]s, [[hylek]], and [[largos]] for more information about the karka, refusing to discuss the matter further as he grew bored of the conversation.<ref>[[The Lost Shores/Phase 1/dialogue#Miyani's Scavenger Hunt|Miyani's Scavenger Hunt Dialogue]]</ref>

In 1327 [[Mouvelian calendar|AE]] during [[Scarlet Briar]]'s [[Escape from Lion's Arch|invasion]] of Lion's Arch, the Mystic Forge was relocated to the [[Vigil Keep]] where Miyani and Zommoros continued providing their services to adventurers. Once Lion's Arch had been [[Battle for Lion's Arch|reclaimed]], the Mystic Forge returned to the city and was temporarily situated in [[Western Ward]].

=== [[Living World Season 2]] ===
In 1328 [[Mouvelian calendar|AE]] Lion's Arch finished its rebuilding, and the Mystic Forge was given a prominent spot in the newly rebuilt mercantile area. Some of the skritt refugees from the destruction of Lion's Arch were attracted to the Forge, and Zommoros gladly added them to his roster of employees.<ref>[[Zommoros's Journal]]</ref>

=== [[Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire|Path of Fire]] ===
Sometime around 1330 AE, Miyani came across an Elonian human named [[Sibaha]] who had entered the Mystic Forge without appointment much to Zommoros's frustration. Sibaha questioned Zommoros on a range of topics relating to [[skimmer]]s and water that the djinn deemed "tedious scientific nonsense." Zommoros told Sibaha to seek out the [[quaggan]]s of [[Moshpoipoi]] in [[Frostgorge Sound]] for more detailed information as quaggans knew more about moving underwater than he did. Miyani asked Zommoros why he'd neglected to mention that Lion's Arch already had quaggans whom Sibaha could have consulted; his reasoning was to get Sibaha as far away from him as possible, and Frostgorge Sound was far enough to his tastes.

=== [[Mythwright Gambit]] ===
In 1331 AE, Zommoros appeared outside the Mystic Forge alongside his [[Mystic Forge Skritt|skritt assistants]] with experienced showmanship, inviting people for a tour of the Forge to discover its mysteries, to which Miyani cheered to once their performance had ended. However, when asked why would Zommoros invite people into the Mystic Forge, Miyani mentions that Zommoros has been acting more outgoing and suspicious since sending the invitation.

=== [[The Key of Ahdashim]] ===
Miyani learns about [[Qadim]]'s meddling in the Mystic Forge, and the more recent ripples he's caused beyond it; condensed ley magic that had begun infecting some of the [[Destabilized Magic|most dangerous foes in all of Tyria]]. In response, Miyani and some of the skritt working for the Mystic Forge asked that adventurers defeat these powerful entities and bring the harvested Condensed Ley-Line Essences back to them, which could be used in the creation of [[shiny weapons]] and [[Ultra Shiny weapons]]. <ref>[[Mystic Forge Skritt]]</ref>

== Dialogue ==
{{main|Miyani/dialogue|label=For previous dialogue}}
:Ah, you're the one [[Zommoros]] invited to tour the [[Mystic Forge]]. Or are you here to see what I've got for sale?
:{{dialogue icon|merchant}} ''What do you have for sale?''
:{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Why would Zommoros invite us into the Mystic Forge?''
::Honestly, I have no idea. Up until now, he's been very secretive about how the forge works. Something's changed.
::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Changed? How so?''
:::Ever since he sent out that invitation, he's been acting strange. More outgoing. Friendly. Very suspicious.
:::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''What else can you tell me about Zommoros?''
::::He came up here from [[Elona]] a long time ago. He says it was voluntary, but I doubt it.
::::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''You think Zommoros was forced to leave Elona?''
:::::He likes to gamble and make bets. It's gotten him in trouble more than once.
:::::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
::::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
::::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Thanks for your time.''
:::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
:::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Thanks for your time.''
::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Thanks for your time.''
:{{dialogue icon|more}} ''How does the forge work?''
::Place the items you want transformed. If you're interested in the specifics, you should take Zommoros up on [[Mythwright Gambit|his tour]].
::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''What do you do for Zommoros?''
:::Mostly listen to him yammer on about random topics. I also manage business between the forge and its customers.
:::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''What do you get out of it?''
::::Headaches. Though sometimes he does tell me stories of my homeland, Elona. Helps me remember where I'm from.
::::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Why can't you go back?''
:::::Even after everything that's happened there, it's a dangerous place. Besides, I've got a business to run here.
:::::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
::::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
::::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Thanks for your time.''
:::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''So, are you the djinn's keeper?''
::::Keeper? I keep him company, but that's about it. Zommoros likes to talk, and I don't mind listening.
::::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.''
:::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
:::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''I see. Well, take care.''
::{{dialogue icon|back}} ''I have more questions.'' '''(back to the dialogue start)'''
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Thanks for your time.''
:{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Miyani, I need a favor. I misplaced a specific sword, and I really need it back. Is that something the Mystic Forge could do?'' (If Broken Caladbolg has been destroyed and the player has not yet completed the [[Knight of the Thorn]] storyline)
::Well, it's possible that Zommoros has acquired such a weapon for his private collection. If you put together an offering of 10 Elonian Wine, he may relinquish it.
::{{dialogue icon|give}} ''Here's 10 Elonian Wine. It's a broken plant-based sword—one of a kind.'' (Give 10 [[Bottle of Elonian Wine]] in exchange for [[Broken Caladbolg]])
:::It seems Zommoros anticipated your visit—your need must be great for him to give up this weapon.
:::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Thanks, Miyani. You're a lifesaver.''
::{{dialogue icon|sell}} ''In that case, may I take a look at the items you have in stock?''
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Maybe another time.''
:'''(If [[Finding Sibaha]] active)'''
:{{dialogue icon|more}} ''I'm tracking a [[skimmer]] thief named [[Sibaha]]. Did she come here?''
::Oh, yes. Pretty bold. Walked right into the Mystic Forge, no appointment. Zommoros was taken aback, of course. She questioned him on a range of topics that he deemed "tedious scientific nonsense."
:::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''How did he answer?''
::::He told me he directed the "presumptuous, condescending [[human]] with an unhealthy skimmer obsession" to subject matter experts in [[Moshpoipoi]] in [[Frostgorge Sound]]. [[Quaggan]]s.
::::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''But...there are quaggans in [[Lion's Arch]].
:::::I pointed that out after Sibaha left. He said, "Yes, but Frostgorge is much farther away."
:::::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Ah. I see. Well, thanks for the info.''
::::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''All right. Thanks.''
:{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Maybe another time.''

;In the [[Memory of Old Lion's Arch]]
:Here to take your chances with Zommoros, the genie of the Mystic Forge? Or perhaps you'd like to see what I have for sale?
:{{dialogue icon|merchant}} ''What do you have for sale?''
:{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Take my chances? What do you mean?''
::Zommoros offers the chance to improve items, but he can be wildly inconsistent. You may get a wondrous item. Or, you may get garbage.
::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Tell me more about Zommoros.''
:::Very powerful, very arrogant. But then most genies are. For all of our travels together, I know little about him. Maybe he'll reveal his secrets one day.
:::{{dialogue icon|merchant}} ''What do you have for sale?''
:::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''So, are you his keeper?''
::::Hardly. More like his only friend. Despite his insistence to the contrary, he's lonely. He likes having someone to talk to, or someone to listen to his boasts.
::::{{dialogue icon|merchant}} ''What do you have for sale?''
::::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''What do you get out of it?''
:::::Between his boasts, he tells me stories of my homeland, Elona. It helps me remember where I'm from, even if I can't go back.
:::::{{dialogue icon|merchant}} ''What do you have for sale?''
:::::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Why can't you go back?''
::::::[[Palawa Joko]] rules Elona with an iron fist. No one gets out or in. But Zommoros keeps the memory of my people alive through his stories. For that, I'm grateful.

== Notes ==
* Miyani was given a unique overhead icon on [[Game updates/2014-09-09|September 9th, 2014]], as part of the [[September 2014 Feature Pack]].

== Trivia ==
* Miyani is [[Voice actor|voiced]] by [[Kari Wahlgren]].
* Within the game files exists voice lines between Miyani and Zommoros that would play when using the [[Mystic Forge]].<ref>[https://soundcloud.com/lasurarkinshade/sets/guild-wars-2-datamined-zommoros-and-miyani-voice-acting Guild Wars 2 Datamined Zommoros and Miyani Voice Acting], SoundCloud.com</ref> In these cut conversations Zommoros was voiced by [[Fred Tatasciore]].
** Based on Miyani's in-game dialogue, it's implied that while working she and Zommoros still speak regularly amongst themselves, despite Zommoros mostly staying within the Forge.
* She wears [[Pit Fighter armor]].
* Miyani's comment "Maybe you can show me some moves" is likely a tribute to the 80's Kung-Fu movie ''[[w:The Last Dragon|The Last Dragon]]''.
* With the release of the [[Largos Fin Backpack Glider Combo]], a blog post written by [[Evon Gnashblade]] mentions bothering Miyani about sending letters to largos instead of him, suggesting Miyani knows some largos.<ref>[https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/largos-fin-backpack-glider-combo-is-available-in-the-gem-store/ Largos Fin Backpack Glider Combo is Available in the Gem Store!, GuildWars2.com]: "Even if I did happen to have largos clientele, I’m not passing on any love letters to them. Yeah, I’m on to some of you. If you’ve got a death wish, go bother Miyani about it."</ref>
* While speaking to Sibaha in Lion's Arch, she remarks that Miyani does all the real work regarding running the Mystic Forge.<ref>[[Sibaha]]</ref>
* With the removal of Lionguard Lyns, [[Grandmaster Craftsman Hobbs]]'s [[Legendary Weapons (achievements)#Mails_received_upon_completing_each_tier|third letter]] is the only time Miyani's pronouns are mentioned in-game, despite the fact that Miyani is mentioned in [[Zommoros's Research Notes]], by Sibaha, and by the [[Commander]].
* [[W: Miyani|Miyani]] is also the name of a beach village in India.
