2. I've seen stories where a character will chase after their father for months and each time they find them the father will walk off again without explaining himself. Finally at the end, it turns out he has this dark secret, but it turns out to be no big deal compare to all the good he could've done if he'd explained everything from the start. That kind of writing vexes me.

3. @ Forestfleet: Why has it taken this long to even hear what town Ren and Nora came from? 'Member that mission they wanted to go on back in Breach? They scrapped that mission but now they're on the road and only now are we hearing about this big Grimm threat that Nora doesn't seem to know about. They brought it up at Season 2's and now in Season 4 bring it up again? SMH Not my style.

4. I guess anyone like that left when Ghira did (who it seems may have been the old leader when the WF were protestors instead of extremists). 1. Technically, they didn't give us the mystery of Salem until the end of volume 3. Sure, we had the mystery of what Cinder was up to for 3 volumes, but that was originally only going to be 2 or 2.5 volumes, and they originally wanted to present the first 2 volumes as 1 season. Production issues.

Volume 1 was really just introducing us to the setting, the characters, and how stuff works, with the end of it introducing us to the White Fang and giving us a teaser of Cinder's group, while also presenting the mystery of what Roman was doing.

Volume 2 let us spend more time with some characters, get some backstory on Yang, and set up for the events of volume 3.

It, unfortunately, wasn't until volume 3 that they could actually get into the meat of the story.

2. Honestly... agreed. When a friend of mine made me start watching Supernatural, I was worried the entire show was going to be all about Sam and Dean running around killing evil things while searching for their dad, but they actually found him pretty early on. Aaand then he (er, it was like a decade ago, so would this be spoilers?) But at least they had his journal.

3. Seems like the town they were going to was probably gonna be the one Nora is from or something, since they were going to one just outside the City of Vale, while Ren is from a town outside the Kingdom of Mistral. And we have yet to get info on Nora's story.

4. Ghira was, in fact, the old leader of the White Fang. Corsac said so.

Corsac: We understand if you bear any skepticism towards these claims. The White Fang’s tactics are admittedly, more aggressive since you stepped down as High Leader and became Chieftain of Menagerie. But this, this is no way to make our message heard.
