'''Miles''' is the son of [[Rose]], the mayor of Watersong. Living in [[Watersong]] with his mother during the events of [[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]], we later see him staying in [[Rapoville]] during ''[[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]]''. He is first introduced after [[Color]] is restored to the second half of Watersong.

Miles is a young [[Raposa]] who, despite his age, wants to be viewed as an adult. He can be very stubborn when faced with a need or challenge, such as retrieving the [[Promise Conch]]. He tries to be completely self-reliant, often to the point of refusing help from those who offer it. He is shown to pay close attention to detail, and was able to conclude that the Promise Conch was likely hidden somewhere in [[The Abyss]] based on the type of seaweed that [[Salem]] left behind.

== {{Icon|Tower}} Appearance ==
Miles is a young male Raposa with orange fur. His outfit consists of a green and white suit with brass buttons, a black waistcoat, and a small green bowler hat with a gold ribbon wrapped around it.

=== Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter ===
Immediately after the [[Creator]] restores [[Color]] to the ground, Miles is heard shouting at [[Salem]] to get away from him. Soon afterwards, he hides behind the [[Hero]] when Salem continues to demand that Miles come along with him. Seeing him with the Hero, Salem finally leaves Miles alone, stating that he was only trying to take Miles back home. Once Salem leaves, [[Mari]] offers to take Miles home, to which he refuses and runs off. 

Some time later, Miles is found by multiple Watersong residents, but he runs into [[Jivin' Rooftops]] to escape them, so the Hero chases after him. Once Miles is brought back from Jivin' Rooftops, he explains to [[Jowee]] and the Hero that the reason he keeps running away is so that he can search for the [[Promise Conch]] to save his [[Rose|mother's]] life. Rose's flashback explains this further, showing Miles attempting to stop his mother from risking her life by betting her voice, and the power of song, against Salem. In the end, Rose lost her bet against Salem, and by her promise to the Conch she also lost her voice.

After listening to his explanation, the Hero is tasked with finding the Promise Conch, which Miles concludes to be located somewhere in [[The Abyss]]. Later, when the conch is found and Rose's voice is restored, Rose claims that she is not worthy to be the mayor of [[Watersong]]. Despite Miles's objection, Rose tries to pass the power of song to him, in the hope that he will make a better mayor after her death. However, the Creator intervenes during the transfer and stops Miles from getting the voice, keeping Rose alive. Shortly after this, Salem arrives and explains that he cheated in order to take control of Watersong. Salem then attempts to use his [[Ameba]] to attack [[Rose]], Miles, and [[Butler]], but after being being stopped and cornered by the Hero, Mari, and Jowee, he reveals himself as [[Wilfre]] and escapes using a portal.

=== Drawn to Life: Two Realms ===
Four years later, Miles is hiding in [[Rapoville]] because he feels like a failure. After the [[Hero]] and [[Jowee]] find him while searching for [[Mike]]. After using the [[Book of Imagination]] to clear his mind, Miles asks for a companion, so the [[Creator]] gives him the [[Pet]]. Miles then reveals that he saw Mike run into the house in the [[Watersong]] district.

[[File:-22IfICouldWalk500Miles.png|800px|center]]

Miles' Imagination Battle in [[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]] is named '''If I Could Walk 500 Miles''''. It is the twenty-second story level in the game, and has three segments. After being directed to Miles by [[Click]], [[Jowee]] and the [[Hero]] find him sulking near the [[Wishing Well]]. He claims to be a failure and that he'd never return to [[Watersong]], so the Hero uses the [[Book of Imagination]] to help him.
