Viconia DeVir

Hello! I have a question about Viconia that bothers me for the longest time, and I failed to find an answer online, so I think this place is the best one to ask.
I played BG2 even before it was republished by Beamdog, and Viconia was a character who had so much hints about her having a personal quest that never happened.
When I first recruited her in Shadows of Amn (I played 2 before 1) I got a lot of expectations. I expected that she will have a quest in Underdark. That we will meet someone who knew her back then. That we will get ambushed by Lolth's worshipers who are hunting Viconia. She tells all about her life in Underdark, her escape and her turning on Lolth so I was absolutely sure that as soon as we are going to Underdark, something will happen. But it never will.
You can find some other DeVir house members in the cage on the second floor of the tavern in Underdark, I was expecting them to have any interaction with Viconia - again, nothing. I tried multiple options of playthrough variations because I thought maybe I need to have a certain level of approval with her to unlock her possible quests - nothing helped. I researched the internet and found nothing as well, so I assume it doesn't exist.
But still, they added these DeVir NPCs for some reason, and all Viconia's stories imply that she could have a quest about her past, her house falling, her escaping Lolth and all that.
So my question is, maybe there was something planned in the original games, that was later cut? That's the only explanation I can think of. Do you guys know anything about that?
