Okay, so, considering how Silver Wolf is an Emanator, what if the consequences of overusing this power can lead her to become something akin to a Herrscher?
This is a complete crack theory, brought by the facts that:
A) We've been getting a lot of references to HI3 in the latest patches (Welt bring nostalgic, Vita references, Void Archives);
B) Elation pathstriders have been shown to travel between HI3 and HSR Universes, particularly Sampo and Sparkle to recruit Vita;
C) The fact that Elio limits the usage of the cartridge can mean that it either has negative consequences for her health, or that the future "evil Silver Wolf" is stil very much a possibility that can happen if she stays in her Emanator for for too long;
D) Assuming it functions similarly to a Herrscher, there may be a secondary personality attempting to take over;
In other words, she is Aha's Emanator, and I wouldn't put it past the Aeon to have stolen a Herrscher core from HI3 and added it to the cartridge, or just made their own variation of a Herrscher core, to carry the "Will of Aha". For the lols.
Best case scenario, Silver Wolf overcomes the challenge present in the cartridge via willpower and the power of friendship, getting some cool new powers and confirmation that she's found people that care for her. Worse case scenario, Aha gets a new powerful Emanator to carry out their will.
Basically Aha's best attempt of getting his gaming buddy to make friends is "set her up by giving her a literal nuke disguised as a cartridge and hope someone bothers to help her out".
That doesn't mean the alternate future isn't Silver Wolf as a Lord Ravager, maybe she joined out of revenge later on...
Bonus:
Kafka: If you don't exercise caution, your little trinket may turn you into something far worse...
Kafka: A Herrscher.
Silver Wolf: WTF is that?
Kafka: No idea
