Biography
Sona was working at her family's inn one day, when she was approached by Hajime Nagumo and his companions Yue and Shea. They wanted to book a room for themselves for the night while they were in Brooke Town, and came to the inn that Sona's family owned at the recommendation of the Adventurer's Guild receptionist Catherine Walker. Sona explained to Hajime the guidelines and prices for using the bath at the in at his request. Afterwords, Sona curiously asked how many rooms Hajime wished to book for himself and his two female companions, to which his immediately responded with wanting one room for all three of them (much to her shock). Yue then interjected by wanting to book two rooms instead with one for Hajime and herself, and the other for Shea to sleep in by herself. This prompted Shea responded by wanting to be the one to sleep with Hajime (both literally and sexually), and the two girls started arguing which grabbed the attention of the rest of the inn's guests in the vicinity, and had even made Sona blush after hearing such adult-themed issues being talked out loud. Hajime then settled the two of them down after hitting each of them over the head with his prothetic fist, and then told Sona to book one room for the three of them, as per his initial request. Sona, however, became so excited by the exchange between Yue and Shea that she immediately asked Hajime if he was going to perform any sexual acts with the two girls during their stay at the inn. Sona's mother then immediately dragged her away before being able to ask anymore questions, while her father proceeded to give Hajime the key to his room.

Days later, Sona was out of town for family matters, with Crystabel acting as her chaperone during the trip. On their way back to Brooke, they came across Hajime, Yue, and Shea as the three of them had been flushed into a spring after having completed Miledi Reisen's Labyrinth. After the commotion had calmed down from this surprising encounter, Crystabel offered to let them ride in their carriage, which they accepted.

After Hajime and his companions returned to Brooke and once again booked another room at the Masaka Inn, Sona spent everyone opportunity she could to spy on them in order to see what kind of sexual acts he performs with Yue and Shea, but of to no avail. One night she scaled down a rope from the inn's walls in order to try to peek on Hajime from his room window, but was unable to see or hear anything. Just then Hajime appeared from behind her while standing in midair with his "Aerodynamic" Skill. Sona panically tried to explain to Hajime that she was just doing an inspection of the inn's walls, to which Hajime sarcastically replied by bringing up the issue of a pervert (her) that was stalking people at the inn. Sona tried to feign ignorance by claiming that the inn does not tolerate perverts, but after a brief period of tense laughter between the two, Hajime immediately grabbed Sona's face with his prothetic hand and painfully squeezed her. After a moment of inflicting pain on her, Hajime loosened her grip of Sona, much to her delight, only for her to realize that he was handing her over to her mother who was waiting for her by the inn's entrance. She then preceded to punish her daughter by spanking her (apparently having already done so for each of her previously failed attempts to spy on Hajime).

Over a year later, Kouki Amanogawa and his knight companion visited the Masaka Inn for a meal after having completed a dangerous monster subjugation quest. As they entered the inn, Sona approached them without either of them having noticed her beforehand, much to their shock, and was preparing to take their orders. Sona stealthy entrance prompted the female knight to ask her if she had any previous special training in espionage, to which Sona denied in a puzzled tone. After taking their orders, Sona immediately left without either of them managing to sense her presence once again. After Kouki and the knight finished their meal, Sona came by to collect their dishes, but she dropped her Status Plate as she left. Seeing as it had already been activated, Kouki and the knight couldn't help but glance over it to view what kind of skills she had, and were immediately dumbfounded to see a wide array of skills that would normally be associated with a spy. Just then, Sona approached them once more, without them sensing her, and managed to take back her Status Plate before they saw her. She then thanked them for holding on to it while she left it by accident, but then scolded them for looking at it without her permission, to which they both apologized to her.
