Daughter

The unnamed daughter is the daughter of the protagonist of SANABI. 
== Throughout SANABI ==
=== Sanabi Resurfaces ===
The daughter initially appears at the very beginning of the game, appearing in the protagonist's dreams and telling him that "getting to the end is not important." When the protagonist wakes, his daughter immediately approaches him, wanting to play "soldiers." Later on, she wishes to play with walkie-talkies, and proceeds inside the house.
Inside the house, she discovers what she is unaware is a bomb, informing her dad that it was sent by "Sanabi." Her father attempts to rescue her from the house, but the bomb detonates, wounding her father and presumably killing her. Following this, the protagonist goes on a rampage to avenge her, slaughtering the arms dealers who sold the bomb to Sanabi. The daughter continues to appear in dreams and flashback sequences throughout the game.
=== The truth revealed ===
It is later revealed that the protagonist's daughter is in fact Mari, and that the protagonist's memories of her death were faked in order to manipulate him into pursuing revenge. In reality, the bombing caused the death of the protagonist's wife, her mother, leaving her father heartbroken. Disturbed by her father's mourning, she attempted to digitalize his personality in hopes of removing the painful memories of her mother from his mind. Though she was successful, the attempt ultimately backfired, as the spying Mago Group attacked her home and killed her father to steal his personality data, leaving her with the guilt of being indirectly responsible for his death. Ten years later, she stole her father's personality data, now weaponized, back from Mago and activated it, resurrecting the protagonist as a Worker drone.
When Mari rejects the protagonist as her father, calling him an imitation, he recalls a flashback of Mari sometime after her mother's death. When her father mourns her mother, Mari states that she misses her, too. She recalls the death of her cat, Mufin, and claims that her mother played the harmonica to make her feel better. She offers to play the song for him whenever he feels sad, and asks that he do the same for her. She offers to teach him the song, "Sanabi," and he plays it for her in the present day, causing her to reconcile with him.
After an emotional reunion, the protagonist acknowledges her as his daughter and reminds her of how much he loves her, before sacrificing his life to save her. He leaves her with the reminder that "getting to the end is not what's important, but how we get there," echoing her previous words to him. As Mari salutes him, he sees one final flashback of his daughter saluting him in the same way, as she would when they played "soldiers."
