Yeah, considering everything's thats going down, I believe that even if Team RWBY uncovers and defeats Cinder... Here is a list of my speculations, although not all of them are well thought out.

-Ironwood gets killed by Grimm and Vale gets completely taken over by Grimm

-The whole world lays the blame on Beacon for the Grimm overunning Vale

-The Beacon students are forced to flee Vale to escape not only the Grimm but Atlesian forces seeking to avenge their loss as well as Bounty Hunters and whatever other factions they encounter.

-The Beacon Academy teams are split across different regions of Remnant, as we'll see in Volume 4. So RWBY, JNPR, SSSN, everyone are each alone in another part of the world.

-There may be internal tensions between the teams as while some seek to just survive on the run, others want to protect the world from the Grimm and clear their names and others will actively seek revenge against the other kingdoms for spurnning them.

-One villain, knowing how human hatred feeds the Grimm, feels the only way to save the world is to "cleanse" it of all human and faunus life (Not sure, how it could tie in with Cinder's higher-up).
