I figured, maybe as their kingdom was reaching the end of its days, they made a last ditch effort by hiding underground. Aaaand then Mountain Glenn came out, and it turned out that the town of Mountain Glenn did the same thing... except they all died. The idea of an underground kingdom also conveniently allows for the possibility of Summer still being alive. Perhaps she was on the Black Dragon continent for a mission, but got trapped behind Grimm lines, only to be rescued by or stumble upon people from the hidden kingdom where she has been hiding ever since to protect the kingdom's existence or offer them her assistance. In the inevitable end-game where that continent is targeted, it would allow for the RWBY gang to have a convenient means of aiding their victory.
