the point of Nino is that she's actually made after this knightly ideal. Merciful, honorable, obedient, selfless - not exactly mercenary material so she was taken advantage of so, so many times in her 'career' before the great hunt. She's the sort of person who'll help people for nothing in return, rescue orphans and animals, and stand up for anyone who she deems is being treated unfairly so they are best friends with Mako bc of this and for many other reasons, it is, in fact Mako who feels protective of her more than the other way because Nino is really naive sometimes, I think she threatened Gault out of dragging Nino into a few cons before. While this has the cons pros are that she fits nicely within the Mandalorian (though they are too aggressive for her sometimes) community and esp her clan and while Artus thought she was too 'soft' to lead he instantly had a soft spot for her which is why her relationship with Torian did not cause any trouble.

Another thing that has nothing to do with this - Nino and Torian's first child is actually this little twi'lek girl named Ovila, who was adopted into the clan Ordo during the start of the war, the intentions are good and pure but with everyone fighting and the man who rescued having no idea, time and patience to actually deal with a small traumatized child, she feels alienated and Nino's blue skin gets her attention - same as hers - instantly they bond. She gets attached to her really fast and while at that time she's wary of Torian and any other human men one of which is the one who adopted her, having seen her open up a lot easier agrees giving her away - not that he had any other choice. During this time Nino is also pregnant to their baby, which is very hard bc she's also fighting much to everyone's, especially Torian's panic, but she's a really good shot she can't afford to stop.

anyways she'll have her son safely, he looks more human than anything but with Nino's red eyes, he's a big step for Ovila to get over her fear of human men because he's so small and sweet and tiny and hey the warzone lacks toys so he might as well be it. I'm also thinking how it'd be seen having a baby during the war but I think while there are mandalorians who might think it selfish for the majority he sort of becomes a mascot. Hope for the future. And he never lacks a caregiver, they never really have to buy anything because they keep getting baby stuff, old ones, used ones, from people who lost their babies, from those who knit and sew. The little guy can soften even the Mandalore the Avenger.
