Let's say Sona's lore would be changed if Riot looked at ionia

What would happen to Sona in ionia before she goes to Demacia if she were to have a new lore=?

considering that lux's new lore is x10 bigger than the old one, i wonder if Sona would have a part of her lore talking about noxus's invasion when she was a child, she wouldn't go to the war of course but maybe she met some people?

I'm almost inclined to believe she will be directly affected by the war. She probably would've been pretty young at the time, but I don't see how she wouldn't have seen or experienced the conflict. Been pondering how she actually got to Demacia from Ionia for a while considering I don't really expect any Demacian to go out of their way to adopt an Ionian orphan, or even know such an orphan exists, so current thinking about it leads me to think Sona would be in Valoran and arrive in Demacia at some point, drawing Lestara's eye. How she got there is anyone's guess, but given ancient magical etwahl perhaps Noxus captures her? And then she either escapes or is rescued?

The Ryze relation makes me wonder if he perhaps he had a hand in her being in Demacia. If the etwahl is something better left hidden or protected, where better than in a land where the people have buildings that absorb magic?

Indeed, considering that riot made champions darker and darker with their new lore i think the same would happen with Sona and her relation to Ionia war ,considering that she was young like you said

because riot didn't care about lores back then, so they made w/e they wanted without real coherence how she got to demacia is a real problem

It made a little more sense when Runeterra was much smaller. Now it's bigger, and such questions become ever more pertinent and the details more perplexing.

Neither did we until Universe came in to play, revealing that Ryze has apparent ties to Naus, Brand, Miss Fortune, Sona, Galio, Malzahar and Trundle.

Lestara Buvelle adopted Sona because she learned about the Ethwal, that's all there is to it. And why would Noxus be involved, that doesn't make any sense

SharjoMar 25, 20171 votes

Aye but for a nation as closed off as Demacia, how does Lestara even get the information that the etwahl is in the hands of an Ionian orphan? It's not that Lestara doesn't want to be involved with Sona and the etwahl, but that I find it hard to believe, given Demacia's state in the lore, that she would have any way of knowing of Sona's existence unless she's either in Demacia or in Valoran and word of her has spread to Demacia.

Sona's lore is simple yet really confusing lol

this is one thing i would like the know alongside the fact that Sona can somehow levitate in-game, is she getting that power from the Ethwal or did she learn how to levitate on her own? and what exactly happened to her parents, did they die during the Ionian war?

did she learn how to levitate on her own?

again, this is something that riot didn't planned because they didn't care about things like that before sona's lore is just outdated

{quoted}

and what exactly happened to her parents, did they die during the Ionian war?

let me enlighten you, we don't know kappa

this is why i hate sona's current lore, there isn't anything about it "she has no memories of her parents" gosh why did u do this riot

I feel like they won't reveal Sona's parents in any detail because the mystery of her birth and connection to the etwahl's a key point to Sona's story.

Also I'd imagine she floats either because of the etwahl or because she's innately magical herself. Both work, and Ionia's humans are more likely than the rest of Runeterra's to showcase a natural affinity for magic.

Jhin empowers his bullets with magic, Karma draws power from within herself, as does Syndra, Kennen is Kennen, Shen can traverse realities, Yi's basically super human, Wukong is Wukong, Lee Sin was an aspiring mage, Yasuo is a wind samurai and Soraka is Soraka. No real magic from outside sources except for Ahri, Varus and Zed. Ionia's got a bunch of magic.
