That would be interesting, but as of right now (at least, what we're told what the goal is right now) is to defend the Relics and not use them unless absolutely necessary.

The only reason the Relic of Knowledge is with our heroes is that Raven decided to open the Vault, and being unopposed, this threatened the Ozluminati's plan to keep it there because she is too much of a danger to have a Relic by her lonesome. Similarly, since she'd "turned over" to Salem's side during the Battle, keeping it there (even if they don't know she's the Maiden) meant it would likely fall into Salem's hands, in their eyes. Even if she hadn't opened the Vault or she wasn't the Maiden and it ended up being "Vernal" or one of her tribe members, there's always the danger that she WOULD, which would mean they'd be forced to stick around longer.

Which makes me concerned about one thing...Yang essentially tasked herself with keeping the Relic safe, much to her mother's chagrin and sadness. While she was able to keep Raven's paws off it then, there's still the possibility that she could come back through a portal to Qrow or Yang and make a snatch at it again, even if doing so would be undeniably stupid of her. (This of course, assuming Raven simply portalled to Tai out of fear, and isn't going to make up with him out of the "goodness of her heart, I've seen the error of my ways" kind of gal.)
