"It's her future, and she knows her abilities as well as anyone," August said.
"Maybe." She sounded doubtful.
"But you're her Bastion. She looks to you for guidance. Even the slightest nudge toward the amethyst and she'll take it. Don't pretend you don't want her to take it."
Honestly, August wanted her to choose the amethyst and to change her enhancement back to the speed one.
But he couldn't explain why.
He knew that Fei made for an amazing Champion with amethysts.
But she had clearly performed better with her current enhancement.
Shouldn't that prove that he needs to push her down an alternative path?
Was he blinded by his knowledge of the future?
August held no knowledge about the path not taken by Fei.
Would she turn out stronger with a new gem?
Or would this be a horrible mistake?
If he hadn't seen Sen's personality shift in this new timeline, he wouldn't hesitate to push the amethyst on Fei.
But Sen's changes showed that whatever was happening was for the better.
