Since the release of the Fontaine map in Genshin Impact 4.0, the game’s plot has been setting the stage for the Hydro Archon, Sangonomiya Kokomi. In the recently aired 4.2 preview livestream, this highly anticipated deity of Fontaine is finally making her grand debut. Judging from the information released in the 4.2 preview, the storyline of this upcoming new version is expected to be extremely explosive.
After the launch of version 4.2, players finally get to know what Furina’s true state is. Looking back at the groundwork laid in versions 4.0 and 4.1, the Hydro Archon of Fontaine, Furina, has failed to exhibit the dignity befitting a deity. As one of “The Seven” officially ordained by Celestia, Furina’s ability to be frightened to tears by a mere “servant” from the ranks of the Fatui has led many players to doubt her identity as the Hydro Archon
But from the preview of version 4.2, Furina is not only the Hydro Archon, but she also played a cruel trick on Neuvilleth, the water dragon who has been accompanying her for five hundred years. Furina’s actions made it rain heavily in Fontaine, as per the storyline where rain in Fontaine symbolizes the tears of the water dragon. Perhaps the storyline in version 4.2 will truly make this water dragon, who has buried his emotions deep within, understand what “sadness” truly means. As the storyline of Fontaine unfolds, various Fontaine merchandise is also being released. Among them, furina merch Genshin stands out as a popular star of Fontaine, with Furina leading the trend and wielding significant influence.
