'''Merindue''' was the second [Queen] of [[Nerrhavia's Fallen]].

== Appearance ==
Merindue is a tall Stitch-Woman made of Silk, though her skin looked like metal.<ref name=":2">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/11/27/9-25/ Chapter 9.25]</ref> She had a jeweled brooch embedded in her forehead, and her arms had bangles of jade.<ref name=":0">[[Chapter 8.32]]</ref> She's unadorned in gold or gems, preferring to dress more humbly.<ref name=":1">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ Chapter 8.85]</ref> Her clothes were marked with chalk.<ref name=":2" />

== Personality ==
Merindue is a kind, but impatient woman. She holds a great hatred for her predecessor, [[Nerrhavia (Queen)|Nerrhavia]] and [Slavers], although she was willing to work with the former. In the land of the dead, she was irritated by the fact that she was a lesser ghost, and worked hard to prove her worth.<ref name=":0" />

== Background ==
Merindue used to be a [Magistrate] in [[Nerrhavia]]'s empire<ref>{{VERef|10.17}}</ref> before becoming part of the revolution that deposed Nerrhavia.<ref name=":2" /> She became the second ruler of her nation after the tyrant was overthrown.

== Chronology ==
Merindue met with the newly deceased, as an effort from the dead to learn what was happening in the living world. She was the one that found [[Cawe]] and took her to [[Erin Solstice|Erin]].<ref name=":0" />

When the dead regained their Skills and magic, and several ghosts took the opportunity to settle old grudges, Merindue chose to fight alonside Nerrhavia instead of slaying her. She promised a reckoning after the current crisis was dealt with.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/17/8-80/ Chapter 8.80]</ref>

Merindue pushed Nerrhavia out of the way of a [[Seamwalkers|Seamwalker]] about to devour her. She survived and lasted until the near end of Kasignel, half-eaten. She ran [[Tamaroth]] through with Excalibur before being consumed, dealing him a wound that will not heal.<ref name=":1" />

== Quotes ==

* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2021/07/25/8-32/ To] [[Cawe]]) “I was the second Queen of Nerrhavia’s Fallen after the tyrant died. Queen Merindue, Level 43 [Queen of the Freed Peoples]. Lower in level than many, but I ''ruled'', so I maintain who I am.
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2021/10/06/interlude-perspective-and-past/ To] [[Nerrhavia (Queen)|Nerrhavia]]) “You speak like the [[Dead Gods|six]] have made some grand move. When, in fact, we have received the greatest hope of all, Nerrhavia. Do not be dramatic.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/17/8-80/ To] [[Nerrhavia's Fallen]]’s ghosts) “''Nerrhavia’s Fallen—to me!'' We march with the [[Nerrhavia (Queen)|Immortal Tyrant]] against the end of things! Abandon your grudges! To arms—to arms for the end of the world!”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/17/8-80/ To] [[Nerrhavia (Queen)|Nerrhavia]]) “We have forever for you to answer for your crimes. I will not have the living land of our people despoiled by those things. If we survive—there will be a reckoning.”
