The second outcome of the quest

It's important to note that the quest to find Miri has two possible outcomes. The first is to confirm her death, while the second involves using an ability called Speak with Dead. If you decide to use this ability, a new quest will begin to find Dowry, a ring located in the Barn close to where you previously rescued Benryn.

Upon reaching the Barn, you'll encounter a Haystack. Interact with it to obtain the Gilded Chest, which contains the Dowry Ring. Afterward, interact with Benryn to successfully complete the quest with the second outcome.
