But I'd rather a flat out hero killed him rather than cop out and have a random monster do it. If it's gonna be a Grimm give him a send off at the hands of a potent Grimm like the dragon.

I think if it's not concluded b4 the season ends at least the start of the next will finish it. No way the city will stay in turmoil for days and days without a victory one way or the other. It'd be crazy if the WF were allowed to own the town due to the orders of Cinder's master becase her master wanted her to move elsewhere so leave Adam to run it with his higher-ups.

I don't think you can just awaken Maiden powers. I think you either have them or don't at birth or when they're transferred. If she had it, Oz would know.

If they end the Volume without the battle concluded, Volume 4 will start after the conclusion of the battle. If they don't end the battle in chapter 12, they'll indicate which way it is going (good or bad), and we will start either days, weeks, or months. If Vale survives, I see Volume 4 opening during some form of late Summer Vacation (Year 2 of Beacon around the corner). If Vale falls, I see the Volume starting days/weeks afterwards in the relocation center for Vale survivors. The closest I'd see them going to the battle would be a Point of View shot of someone injured like Yang who, blinking in and out of conciousness, hears people talking about the situation, but does not comprehend it. Afterwards jump forward to days/weeks/months after the Battle for Vale.

Ending the season halfway through the battle only to continue it seems like bad writing to me. It would essentially make the wait between Volumes an overly long mid-season finale as opposed to the start of a new volume.
