About the guardian role...

Remember we're dealing with two completely different views here in the world as a whole. There's the oblivious public side who are content with life, and just need a guardian to look up to for hope/comfort, and there's the darker hidden side that needs an army to fight against. Ozpin said it himself: the guardian is a symbol. Symbols don't necessarily act on their own.

I wouldn't be surprised if Pyrrah becomes the guardian, alongside Jaune as the white knights who look to be upholding the peace in a public sense. What happens with RWBY, is they get ported out/ sent off with Raven and/or Qrow to fight the real horror that no one knows about. With public appearances/menial tasks, team JNPR quickly gets swept up and away from team RWBY with their new position and roles, in addition to a possible physical separation between them which is foreshadowed in the OP.

I still want to know what's up with Raven's (i'm assuming) portal/sphere of black and red appearing in every OP to date. Every time, it's usually before something bad happens/ separates.
