2. Also I know this is kind of off pace with the conversation and coming out of left field...but I've been rewatching all of RWBY after introducing two of my friends to the show and my friend voice an opinion which I found myself grudgingly matching was that Blake's character...is kind of the worst out of the main four...and that if anything having Illia been the main focus from the start would have made the whole Faunus in disguise thing much more interesting, which he noted after learning about Ilia and her backstory. So thoughts on that? 1. "As far as everyone's aware, Faunus have been around as long as mankind, if not a little longer." As far as everyone's aware.

Though, I will point out again that Miles said, in an interview, that the brother gods story we heard in Volume 4 is merely a truncated version of what he came up with, so it's possible we haven't heard the whole story yet.

2. Yeah, I can see that. That probably would've turned out better. Another thing that would've helped is if we got some flashbacks to the days before the White Fang turned violent, back before people were too afraid of the White Fang to openly discriminate.
