An elderly Halem'nite compeer suffering from a cough brought on by the dust storms, whom Michael Burnham treats while visiting Halem'no in disguise in 3191.
Anorah appears in Whistlespeak. She is one of the first locals whom Burnham and Tilly meet on the trail towards the sacred mountain, part of a group of travellers who call one another compeer.
The dust that blows in from beyond the sheltered valley has damaged her lungs. Burnham eases the cough discreetly, which earns the visitors the trust of the group and an introduction to the priest Ohvahz.
Anorah recalls running the Journey of the Mother Compeer in her youth with her friend Vohrahli, who won it. The memory takes on a darker meaning once the officers discover what winning the race entails.
