Until the age of 13, he lived with his mother in a small home right outside of the islands capital, doing farmwork and taking care of his little sister, while his mother joined merchant caravans to steady their income.

=== Andureem Nature: Case Study 1 ===
Barhene Miriams first study was upon the great
A rare palm tree found mostly on and near shores.
==== FEATURES ====
[[File:Emperor Palm tree study.jpg|thumb|Emperor Palm Tree Sketch]]
Distinguishing itself from a regular palm tree, the Emperor grows up to a grand size of 18 - 24 meters, compared to a regular palm trees 15 meters. Besides its unregular size, one of its most recognisable features is its spiral-shaped growth.
The Emperors log is of the same wood as a normal palm tree, however in some cases, Barhene has found the material of the Emperor Palm Trees logs to be more reinforced. Due to the tree growing mostly on and around shores, its leaves are often found damp and wet. These leaves look like a sized down version of regular palm leaves, usually also hanging down in wet clumps. The Emperor Palm Trees crown is far more fuller and bushier than the regular palm tree's. Sometimes, the trees roots grow alongside the stem of the tree. Barhene suspects this being due to the roots not finding any appropriate soil, therefore trying to grow elsewhere.
==== USES ====
Barhene was not able to study many uses of the tree, since Andureems government has issued a protection order on the tree, due to it being a rare sight on the island. However since the logs comparing mostly the same to a regular palm trees logs, it can be concluded that they would be used for the same things, like as a regular building and crafting material. The Emperor Palm Tree also serves as food for the islands native animals, the Dinnedoans, as they have been found eating the trees leaves.▼
=== Andureem Nature: Case Study 2 ===
Barhene's research continued with the '''Hibiscus Cactus''', known as '''hībīsikesi k’ulik’wali''' in the katabasi language.
A species of Cacti found most commonly deep in the mainland of Andureem island, usually in groups of up to 17 cacti.

==== DESCRIPTION ====
The Hibiscus Cactus is the second most common cactus on the island, next to the plain cactus.
The cacti have been found growing in groups of up to 17 plants. Barhenes theory says, that once one cactus grows in an area, its flowers seeds drop into the ground, forcing other cacti to grow.
The most notable feature are obviously its Hibiscus flowers, each cacti growing up to 2 - 4. The cacti takes up to 14 months to grow to its full adult size, some finishing its growth sooner than others. The flowers take about 3 - 4 weeks to grow to their full extent.
Other than the flowers, the Hibiscus cacti differentiate themselves from the plain cacti in their small size, growing up to anywhere between two and four meters, while the plain cacti can grow up to a wopping size of 9 meters.
==== USES ====
The Hibiscus cacti are often found to be replanted and farmed by its islands people. Harvested for their flowers, these are made use of for a good tea or even medicine, used to treat illnesses and such.
