-- Give the robotic and cybernetic awsomeness available, Yang's misery about the arm felt a little OOC. If anything, I thought she'd be bummed about Weiss, mad about Blake and kind of 'eh, I'll get a new one,' about the arm.

Now, if Pyrrha's really dead, I'm totally fine with that. But I would like someone at RT to say, without a doubt, that she's dead, just like they did with Roman. Why?

Because her death was SO over the top compared to all the other deaths we've seen. It feels like RT is saying, 'Look, see, see here? This woman is dead. DED. So dead, there's not even a body because SS Arkos was lit aflame and became a floating funeral pyre for one. That's how dead she is.

Now, compare that to all the other (human) deaths until now, they were either off screen or implied. (Plus with an OP Ozpin going MIA in the same general area ...)

It's either a big red herring, or a definitive, 'This is where we're going,' from RT.

SS Arkos was sunk. And it burned for ages underwater...
