Ok, I'll bite. Mimara as the Gods' weapon against Kellhus fits the overall theme of TAA:
If Ajokli is Kelmomas' "voice", it could be argued Ajokli was responsible to pointing Mimara toward Akka. Who in turn has mysterious dreams (sent by Anagke?) that cause him to escort her more than halfway around the world and perhaps, a reunion with Kellhus.
Whew...

Or No-Goddess? Fits Bakker's claims about TSA being a feminist work.
H:
I think Mimara must be very important, otherwise, why bother showing us the Judging Eye? Just as another tool for Kellhus to manipulate? I actually really doubt Kellhus fathoms the whole of what it really is, let alone what it can do.
Perhaps Mimara is what "sets it all right" in the end, but what that means I have no idea. Perhaps though the banishing of the wright is foreshadowing though, she'll banish Kellhus in the end? And what about the baby she carries? That has to be pretty important.

The" sets it right "probably gets at the metaphysical connection between chorae (neither being nor nonbeing, outside) and topos (aka place).
In other words the chorae is the interval--the deconstruction--between the subjective law (mimara) and the objective justice (god frame).
mimara, via the chorae deconstructed the law to assert justice.
Fucking Derrida.
You're right it is the no-goddess. Mimara is diff'erance, the Goddess of negative theology.
