Things you may not know about Dire Miralis and the Tainted Sea(Info comes from MH3G Guidebook, MH3U, MH3G, wikiwiki.jp)

Firstly, Dire Miralis is known as "The giant that birthed creation" but is also known as the "The demon/devil that destroyed the world". Dire Miralis also known as the "Incarnation of Disaster", which kinda connects it to Fatalis alittle bit more.

Well, Dire Miralis sunk afew islands before, which are now at the bottom of the sea.

It seems after that massive war with the people of the Tainted Sea, it went back to the deepest parts of the sea(I wonder if its interacted with the Ceadeus, the Abyssal Lagiacrus, and the Adult Gobul). But there is something interesting about this though. It seems Dire Miralis may have been recovering while in the sea plus its heart was still beating, which it seems in order to kill a Dire Miralis you may have to take their heart out of their body, are other wise they will come back(Thats atleast what I'm guessing, what they meant by that).

Truely speaking, the stuff that comes out of Dire Miralis is body fluids mixed with magma.

The reason why its glowing parts seem to swirl is because, of the body fluids flowing through its body.

Its wings have changed into special organs used for releasing magma. Its wings are also used for ejecting liquid magma in the air(Aka the fire when it summons meteors), which may turn into those meteors(How does that work exactly?).

Well, it seems Dire Miralis may truely be immortal and it seems it surpasses the other Elder Dragons from living so long.

Dire Miralis was just recently discovered and, was only thought to be a legend and a fairy tale.

Dire Miralis tainted the sea from its heat, which caused the water to boil, killing all living things in the sea around it and dying the water in blood(This pretty much suggest that it can whip out an entire ecosystem).

The Guild Master in Tanzia knew about Dire Miralis and is the Lighthouse Keeper, and somethings suggest that he may have even known about Fatalis(I hope we get more background about him in the future). He is also one of the surviviors who faced of against Dire Miralis.

The lighthouse was possibly built several decades ago(Its true age is unknown but thats estimate by the Guild) and was built to worship the beast.

The few that survived after Dire Miralis attacked made Tanzia Port around the Tainted Sea, just in case Dire Miralis ever came back and if they ever had to defeat it again.
