Story[]
Nina grew up alongside Zeph and Alfyn, her parents lost to the Great Pestilence that plagued the Riverlands years ago. Her parents' absence made her grow especially close to her brother, and she feels indebted to him for raising her.
During Alfyn's Chapter 1, Nina falls ill to a terrible bite, infected by a monster's venom. Alfyn tracks down her friend Lily and learns that Nina ventured into the Cave of Rhiyo to gather waterblooms for her brother, only to suffer a bite from a Blotted Viper. While Zeph stays by Nina's side, Alfyn journeys into the cave to confront the viper responsible and harvest a sample of its venom in order to concoct the antidote.
Thanks to Alfyn's heroics, Nina recovers from the bite and makes a full recovery.
