After news of the possible imminent death of the 8th Harbinger, the Tsaritsa and Piero decide to find her replacement. The new candidate to replace the Scarlet Witch is an orphaned student at Sumeru Academy named Adalinda. She climbs up the career ladder suspiciously quickly and eventually becomes the 8th Fatui Harbinger thanks to her mentor Scaramouche. From now on, the other archons are under her thumb, and any lunge towards Her Imperial Majesty will cost them the lives of their own people.
