i don't know if anyne has started a disscussion on this already but has anyone else noticed the red floating orb in the intro to RWBY? it's on 17/18 secs  in the videos and its the four membersof team rwby surronding the orb and they themselves are surrounded by vast amounts of grim, like they are protecting the orb. does anyone have any idea what this ob is or why it is important? My personal theories are:

1. The orb s someones aura. if people's aura stays as a spirit after they die, then maybe thereis a way to get them back and maybe Grim eat them? it could be theaura of someoe they know

2. The orb is special to the grim eg it gives them the abiity to use dust or it is their food source or the food source for their hive mind (if that theory is true).

3. The orb is speial to the humans eg it is what gives them the ability to use aura powers or use dust or maybe it is a national treasure or symbol

comment if you have theories of your own or agree with mine.
