In Chapter Two, we learn about Munira's history. He was always seen as a mediocre child. He did not excel in academics or sports, and he was socially inept. Munira was a passive young man, who preferred to stand in the shadows. He did not display leadership qualities, and unlike Chui, his one attempt to take a proactive stance resulted in his suspension from Siriana.
