Manari was raised in a tribe deep in the eastern Shroud, who all worshiped Menphina the Lover. As a tribe of entirely nocturnal Miqo'te, the moons of Menphina were very important to them. That said, if Manari's tribe were still around, and she were still with them during the events of Dalamud, her views on the whole situation would have been quite different. They likely would have believed Menphina was using her red moon to punish or destroy them. Most of the older, more devout of her tribe would have accepted this supposed fate and urged everyone in the tribe to spend their remaining days in prayer, meditation, and ceremony for Menphina.
But due to the events that happened to Manari and her tribe, she has been turning her back on her old beliefs, at times close to forsaking Menphina, but never actually able to do it. She's been spending years trying to forget her past and her tribe while trying to find her own happiness without them, but events since this have continuously caused her to believe that Menphina is still with her, and helping her find what she is looking for, even if she has been taking Manari along the scenic route for it.
