Also I just want to remind anyone since sure people will want to pretend I never said it. But I never trusted Ironwood and now that he's going dark I feel my suspicion was well founded. That aura transfer thing was a bad idea unless its only used for medical reasons. But a military man thinking that its wrong to make it only as an afterthought after Nikos speaks on it was foreshadowing. As was the scene of Qrow seemingly leaping to attack him but was really attacking an enemy. Finally in the intro when they say "crushed by the weight of the world" they show Ironwood. To me that meant he could handle the pressure of leadership and all his power and heavy handedness would eventually lead him to beef with others. Then Glynda said he often uses shows of force when confronted with problems. He's not stupid but hes simple and single minded. And that can lead you astray.

I wouldn't be surprised if Winter will have to take over as Atlas' leader while he gets locked in a brig and is there scream about how he did something cruel for the sake of everyone. How he was only trying to help. Sad but he's headed down a path that seems like he'll be a sub boss they deal with to get into or escape from Atlas.
