Now the game has 16 factions. Argonites is the new faction with only 1 champion.

I'm a newbie, how can I clear the 5.6 challenge? Do I need to do fusion to get Kassandra? Isn't it a bit hard for early game (newbies) challenges? What about those who will join the game after the fusion ends?

Is this a bug when the devs added new faction or is this intended?

I was thinking I could get a book this week but now it seems unrealistic in the near future.
