Lore Question about Nico

So in the Video of Jumpsuit the Bishop you see is Keons, right?

And does Clancy never meet Nico before Paladin Strait? Is Paladin Strait where he first meets Nico face to face?

I read the letters and don't think that he mentions that he met him before.

Just a random question, I am just wondering if I got it right haha :d
