Talk:Emerald Sustrai/@comment-10390252-20180128144546

The current flow of the story seems to be transforming Emerald into the protagonists' main arch-foe. Emmy being the next Fall Maiden would only add spice to the fact that she is likely to become entirely focussed on getting vengeance for Cinder on Team RWBY. Given that Emerald seemed to have a personal dislike for Ruby in volume 2 and 3, I'm wondering if she'll obsess on Ruby specifically for what happened to Cinder, both in Beacon and in Haven.

If she does, I wonder if it will be her fate to fall before Ruby in a final and climactic battle (possibly, for maximum irony, being impaled by one of Penny's swords that Ruby kept for the day she found the person responsible for her friend's murder). Only then will Ruby become the Fall Maiden because Emerald's last thought will be: "I hate Ruby Rose."

I'd like a scene with Watts advising Salem to be careful of her new pet Fall Maiden. "You an only control a lunatic with a revenge agenda so long as they believe your cause moves them towards their revenge, Ma'am. I am not confident that Ms Sustrai will long perceive your cause as doing so for her."
