History
Background
Vergina lived in Tonio's hometown, Amalfi. The two met at some point and became lovers. Later, it was discovered that she has a tumor the size of a grapefruit in her head and could eventually no longer stand or walk, requiring a wheelchair. Tonio attempted to cure her with Pearl Jam but was unable to. Thus, he left his hometown and moved to Morioh in 1999 in hopes of finding the black abalones that could potentially cure her since they were the food of the gods. Some time later, he was finally able to bring Vergina to Japan.[1]
Poaching Seashore
At Trattoria Trussardi while Rohan is having a meal, he sees Vergina sitting in a wheelchair in Tonio's kitchen. Tonio asks Rohan to help him poach abalones from Hyogara Rocks, eventually explaining that it is for Vergina's sake. Some time after they succeed, Tonio feeds the dish to Vergina. Rohan is glad to see Vergina together with Tonio in the kitchen, with her standing and no longer in a wheelchair.[1]
