Early in the novel, it is explained in the Prologue that Meg Giry, after the story's events, had indeed become the Baroness de Barbazac. Madame Giry is compelled to work for the Phantom because he left her a letter that told her that Meg (should she deserve it) would become Empress. In the Andrew Lloyd Webber adaptation, she is older and her personality is much sweeter, caring and innocent showing genuine concern for Christine's claim of an Angel of Music coaching her. She is also, in the novel, portrayed as a child of around fifteen years old and adores having her own way and attention. In Andrew Lloyd Webber's adaptation, however, her appearance changes, having blonde hair and a more healthy body type. All of which likely a reference to ballerina culture at the time. In the novel she is described as having “eyes black as sloes, hair black as ink, a swarthy complexion and a poor little skin stretched over poor little bones." She is also called a 'brat'. In the story she is Madame Giry's only daughter. Meg Giry is one of the fictional characters from Gaston Leroux's novel The Phantom of the Opera.
