: I think Sona is one of the champions that need a lore update because she doesn't feel like a part of the current universe. She just exists and her lore in the website is one of the shortest. I think she is a character with many potential storylines...

Sona never received an updated lore, so she should definitely on Riots "to-do-list".
That being said, I wonder what aspects of Sonas lore will be changed and which will remain. I mean, the biological children of Sonas adoptive mother were killed in Quinns new lore, so it looks like Riot is planning to keep Sona as the adoptive child of a demacian noble family. However Demacia and Ionia are quite far away in the new lore, so its questionable if she remains an ionian, but then again she appears in ionia in the awaken-trailer, so she'll likely keep some connection to Ionia.
However the biggest question is how Riot is planning to handle her Etwahl. I mean that thing is undeniably magical, but that doesn't make much sense for a demacian.
I am suprised as well for how long they left Sona out. She is a popular character, she has an ultimate skin. But for some reason Riot still didn't update her. With Xin Zhao gone, she is alone in Demacia now. Gragas in Freljord, Talon in Noxus, half of the yordles and voidborns...
Sona needs an update very badly at this point. She's one of a tiny handful of champions that hasn't received any new lore. In fact compared to her lore upon her release in 2011, she's only lost lore, despite Riot having perfect opportunities to update her lore with the two Demacia updates, especially the Sylas one
But nah, instead "We don't have much lore this patch, we only have stuff for Galaxy Slayer Zed" because that's the true priority
, all require lore updates
I think Sona is a good person, but I also want her crazy side to be left, And if possible, don't kill her adoptive mother.
I like to believe that Sona holds a very pivotal position in the Lore of League of Legends, and that is why we've seen hints of her everywhere without seeing a direct update to her yet. I feel like she needs a lot of other pieces of lore built up before she can reveal her own~
Pure speculation, but I don't think it's all that unlikely that something like this could be how Riot is operating. If nothing else it makes me feel good.
