The merge hit Nicaragua as Libertad and instantly scrambled everybody's footing — the old young-versus-old battle lines were gone and every plan was suddenly up for grabs. Alina Wilson reached that first merged Tribal out of the under-30 La Flor tribe, having ridden out a season that never stopped reshuffling its cast: an age-divided start, a Day-12 swap, the Medallion of Power chucked overboard.
Then that first merged vote turned into a swirl of shifting alliances and broken plans — and when it settled, she was the one walking. Sent out twelfth, Alina became the first juror, first to grab a seat and watch the rest of the mess play out. No idol, no necklace, no clean read on which way the brand-new tribe was breaking. Rough way to go in a season better remembered for who quit than who got cut, but somebody had to be the first name on that jury, and Alina drew the short torch.
