Miucha

Slender with short dark hair, Miucha favors a light v-necked top and an apron whose roomy pockets hold her shoe-altering tools. She rounds out the look with dark slacks, flat shoes, and a pair of small round earrings.

Gentle by nature, Miucha gave loyal service to Lebno and prized her customers' comfort above all, yet she repeatedly betrayed her own principles to stay in her employer's favor. Lacking self-belief, she leaned on the fantasy of a life beside Lebno, until Nami's encouragement gave her the courage to walk away and stand on her own ideals. Her cherished goal is to craft shoes that stay comfortable no matter how long they are worn.

Dreaming of footwear that would never hurt anyone's feet, Miucha took a job at a Lebno Listchaque shop and fell for the designer himself, even as she objected to his practice of making uncomfortable, throwaway shoes for the wealthy. When Nami entered the store seeking a return, Miucha cited the no-return rule, but Lebno overrode it and invited Nami into his runway show, assigning Miucha to fit her. During the fitting Nami reminded her of Bell-mere and questioned why such a gifted craftswoman worked under someone else, a remark that made Miucha snap a heel clean off. At the show, Miucha overheard Lebno dismiss his own brand as fit for only a handful of women and recognized how commercialism had corroded his pride. Then Nami strode the runway in Miucha's shoes and ordinary clothes, dazzling the crowd. Miucha chased after her, shed the brand shoes that were tripping her up, and embraced Nami in the lobby in tears. Newly emboldened, she handed Nami the store keys to plunder its jewelry and quit her job to pursue her craft independently.
