1. Return to Vale and try to reclaim it.

2. Head to Atlas and beat the sense into Ironwood.

3. Head to Vacuo and see if their Headmaster is still an ally or a traitor like Leonardo.

4. Take the fight to Salem and aim for the Dragon Continent (They'd fail, but that's how first attempts typically go in media, LEAST LIKELY OPTION)

So which option seems the best? Three options all have Relics at the destination, and protecting them is paramount, so which seems best? 1) Except they never lost Vale, only Beacon.

2) Why?

4) Assuming Salem is in the dragon continent, which we have no reason to assume in the slightest. For all we know, she's in the eastern end of Anima, or simply somewhere else.

Out of all these, I pick 3. It's the one that feels most reasonable.

>Ironwood might be paranoid, but so far he hasn't done something that would justify Ozpin and co. talking sense into him. So far, all he did is send all his men back to Atlas, which is stupid but that's it.

If they do go to Vale or to Atlas, it would be for reasons different from those.
