Nora is a temporary resident of Portia. Originally from a well-off family in Highwind, she’s in Portia to complete her two-year mission.
In the beta test of the game, she was originally a nun with little dialogue or interactions, but we think this version is much better!
Nora is a potential love interest & marriage option.
