Yeah, I'm just going to flat-out say it. This volume has been crap, and everybody on this site is in heavy denial. The idea that you're floating (that Neo and Cinder are incognito in Atlas right now) is material that Miles and Kerry are incapable of writing.

Here's what's going to happen:

-Nobody popular will die (because M&K have lost their balls ever since viewership dropped off after V3)

-Cinder and Neo will spend the entire volume on a ship, doing nothing. (which highlights M&K's inability to handle their enormous cast all at once, so they send characters on hiatus)

-Cinder will fail to kill Ruby (duh), and will get plot-armored to safety like always, despite being a one-woman narrative abomination.

-Nothing of actual consequence will happen this arc. It'll just stand as a convoluted plotline designed to give team RWBY the next relic and allow them to move on to Vacuo.
