You people care way too much about design compared to personality. Sienna and Vernal may have had an interesting design, but they certainly weren't interesting characters. As for vernal's speech to Cinder, that speech was Raven's - she just wasn't the one who gave it because that would give the game away.

I highly doubt Raven will use a portal to Tai - for starters, to do that it would mean RT is fine with losing a good portion of RWBY's audience - seriously, it's really anticlimactic. Also, she steals the relic and then what? She'll never be able to stop. And I doubt she can move fast with her tribe - it takes time to move a huge group of people. Just leave the relic somewhere and let Salem get it? Isn't that giving Salem the victory? Also even if that happens, Salem's faction was "betrayed" by Raven (technically, they betrayed her first, but she did lie to them and had intention of crossing them, also for her to escape, Cinder can get a few injuries), so how could she ever be sure they wouldn't go after her just for revenge?
