History[]

Sophia originated from the Lufenian realm of Paradise and is an agent of the "Strangers" program; a project dedicated to eradicating the darkness and creating a utopia for the Lufenians while using Cornelia as their experimental dumping ground for excess darkness. Sophia and her companions eventually learn of this truth and collaborate with Jack Garland to wrest Lufenia's control over Cornelia by training the Warriors of Light to vanquish the darkness. To that end, Sophia becomes the wind fiend, Tiamat.
