How Genshin Impact’s Furina Fits into the Lore

The following contains spoilers for Act 5 of the Fontaine Archon Quests.Genshin Impact’s newest Archon, Furina de Fontaine, is the most confusing Archon to date. When she first greets the Traveler and Paimon at Romaritime Harbor, she comes off as arrogant and bratty. This demeanor only continues during Lyney and Lynette’s trial, and it’s not until the trial of the Fatui Harbinger, Childe, that she lets that facade slip for a minute out of confusion of the Oratrice Mecanique d’Analyse Cardinale’s guilty verdict. Her secrets aren’t revealed until Act 5 of Fontaine’s Archon Quests, and the truth is a plot twist in the making. Perhaps it is her unique and unexpected story that makes her one of Genshin Impact‘s best Archons.
