Vendra's research eventually led them to discover the lombaxes and the Dimensionator, and the twins heard of Ratchet and Clank's exploits against Emperor Tachyon. In the Ratchet & Clank film and Qwark's retelling of events Neftin twice attempted to turn the entire population of Aridia colorblind, which Qwark had stopped both times.
Vendra and Neftin first evacuated the sector with the rest, before returning immediately, free to conduct their experiments like never before. Eventually, the Galactic President decreed the entire sector was an Alpha-9, meaning it was haunted, causing citizens to evacuate. Citizens from Yerek to Silox fled the sector for the nearest non-haunted sector, as Mayor Gumblebrick on planet Silox's Weeblesnog City mistook Neftin for a demon, and even offered him sacrifices to make him leave.
To that end, Neftin worked to clear the Zarkov Sector out, by scaring the local population using their nether allies which the local populations mistook for evil ghosts. Vendra and Neftin realized they would need more room to conduct experimentation into rifts between her reality and Mr. However, he knew that this was only because of her longing for a family, and remained close to her. Neftin's relationship with his sister was strained, as she became cold and heartless, even being cold towards him. She also made his Netherblades more powerful, creating Prog Blades. Vendra also had Neftin fitted with cybernetic enhancements at some point, and he served as her unstoppable building. During this time, Vendra began research into transdimensional tunnelling and quantum mechanics, through which Neftin supporter her strongly as she was his sister. Vendra decided that, as they could not return home, she would instead bring home to them, and bring the nethers into Ratchet's dimension. Eye then told her and Neftin of their nether heritage, but told them that they had been away too long for them to return to the Netherverse.
While exploring the caves below their room, Vendra found a new friend during her childhood, who she named Mr. The two were raised in the Meero Orphanage, a corrupted orphanage, where they led a miserable childhood and were bullied. They were then found near a cave on planet Yerek, and since they were young enough, their bodies were able to adapt to the new reality, though they were unable to survive in the Netherverse without protective gear. As he had been sent while he was young, he and his sister had no recollection of the events that unfolded in the Netherverse or of their origins. When Vendra and Neftin were young, their parents sent them to Ratchet's dimension out of fear for their safety from the nether leader's cruelty, using Nether Rifts created by the great cataclysmic event caused by the fongoid misuse of time travel. Neftin Prog originated from the Netherverse. Neftin Prog with his sister, Vendra Prog Before Into the Nexus
