Nindle was an old friend of Garda's mother Yvanna and had attempted to save her husband's life after a farming accident. He had previously diagnosed her with an allergy to a certain legume.
Nindle reported his suspicions that the Path had poisoned Farazi and Garda to Sheriff Pickwick, and later attended a meeting with Pickwick and several Jedi to discuss the situation unfolding on Dalna.
