The Martyr is the name given to an Axum individual who embarked on a flight into space upon a craft known as the Heavenly Messenger. It is probable that the Martyr was the first Axum astronaut, though they apparently died during the flight, earning their name.
According to Pearl Flyer, The Martyr has a near-mythical status to the deep-dwelling Axum that Deep Bride comes from. The oracles of her people recount how the Martyr went to the "fields of the sky" after their death upon the Heavenly Messenger. Deep Bride herself wished to one day fly upon a space probe as the Martyr had.
