Where do you find Sofia in Rune Factory 3 Special?

Because Sofia doesn’t have a job, she can be a little difficult to spot sometimes. If she’s not at the de Sainte-Coquille family’s mansion, then she could be walking around town. For example, you may see her at the beach near Carlos’ home. However, she also will sometimes visit Karina or Raven while they’re working at the store and blacksmith.

As for dates, Sofia really likes one place in at the Vale River. Take her to the Icy Rosebush there to win her over.

What gifts should you give Sofia in Rune Factory 3 Special

Sofia is super weird. Gifts people would normally hate are ones she loves. Do you have weeds from your fields? Give those to her. She really likes them. Have some spare branches or rocks? Give them to Sofia. Also, if you mess up while cooking a recipe in your kitchen, save that failed dish for her. Oh, she’ll also be very grateful for any trash you get while fishing too.
