🎬2.6 Assistant Mission Act 8 Review: Augusta, the Return of the True King
Wuthering Waves 2.6 Assistant Mission Act 8 delivers a deep impression with the story of the king centered around Augusta. Augusta's appearance of trying to save the Seven Hills with her own will without succumbing to fate, the prophet Juno's appearance of resisting fate, and the story of Avidus being used by Cristoforo's design are impressively unfolded. Augusta shows her will to make her weapon into the swords of many people and uphold their will, and shows that she will move forward as a king with everyone's expectations, strength, will, and hope on her back. Juno predicts fate as a prophet, but gives up her prophetic abilities to resist fate. Avidus is manipulated by Cristoforo's design to become a hero king.
