Meet Ciaccona: Wuthering Waves’ Bardic Storyteller Shakes Up the Meta 🎶✨

Her introduction is already making waves (pun intended) in the community:

“Bards are the couriers of heroes' tales. No need for applause or flowers. I'm just a storyteller like any other. Nice to meet you, great hero. You can call me Ciaccona.”
