Is it clear that the 'she' refers to Mina?

Goldmoon took in this girl, named Mina, as her own daughter, and would constantly tell her stories of the old gods until she eventually disappeared years later.

Without context, I would guess that "she" is meant to refer to Mina (probably because I don't expect the subject to leave the reader behind like that). Both people are female, though, so it is ambiguous. You could consider swapping out "she" for "the child" or something similar.
