Putting aside for the moment the fact that I agree with BenRG about the Grimm seeming to be an integral part of Remant's ecology that can't be simply wiped out, I wanna point out that if RWBY did in fact "end the Grimm menace once and for all" like you said, they and every other huntsman and huntress on Remnant would suddenly be out of a job, which would not only probably be terrible for Remnant's economy, but having a whole bunch of unemployed superpowered People-of-Mass-Destruction who can each take on entire armies would probably present other problems as well.

-He who is AWESOME That makes for a good sequel, though. The Grimm are gone, but now the new main characters have to deal with helping break down the problem of people using Huntsman skills for evil. Maybe the main villain is one of those "Doing evil to try to do good" types, trying to create evil so that people with Huntsman skills have something to fight - either encouraging criminal activity or trying to find a way to bring back the Grimm.

Here is another list of possible elements in volume 4 for everyone to enjoy!

3. Weiss will be in Atlas confined to the Schnee estate grounds and forced by her father to retire as a Huntress. This way Papa Schnee and mould her into the pe fact heiress, to that end he has band Winter from the mansion, using the fact that she is Ironwood's subordinate as an excuse. Eventually Weiss will have to get her confidence back and break free from her father to become the person she wants to become.

4. Blake will be in Vacuo, living off the grid and on the run from the White Fang. No allies, no one to target, no way to trace her. She will still be wracked with guilt over what happened to Yang and the actions of the White Fang in general, and the fact that she ran away again. At some point she will start to take on the White Fang, Batman style.

6. The post credit scene of the volume will be Cinder waking up from a coma induced by Ruby's powers.

13. The identities of the remaining three maidens will be revealed, and I will maintain my belief in the theory that Winter is the Winter Maiden until proven otherwise.

15. Team RNJR will know about the Maidens, ether during the time skip or in the volume itself. 3. He might still let her train at home. I mean, it seems that she had personal training at home before she left for Beacon, like she was homeschooled instead of going to a combat school. That's why she already had Myrtenaster, already knew how to use it, and already had the skills to fight the Giant Armor. As for Winter being kept away from Weiss... I was going to say there's no reason for him to do that, but then I remembered the manga depicting Winter basically convincing Weiss to stop playing along with what their father wants for her... or something to that nature.

4. We don't really know for sure whether or not Blake will go to Vacuo. She was shown to be still in Vale in End of the Beginning.

6. I can imagine that. The camera shows Emerald on a couch, having fallen asleep while visiting Cinder, and then it pans over to the bed, showing comatose Cinder laying there. And then creepy music plays as she opens her eyes, and her eyes glow.

13. I'm pretty sure they won't reveal the identities of all the other three in one volume. That'd be a little rushed and crazy. I think they'll reveal them over time.

15. The only member of RNJR who knows anything at all about the Maidens is Jaune. If RNJR finds out about the Maidens, Jaune is the one who will lead to the discovery of that information. He'd probably still be wondering what all that stuff in the vault was about and try to look into it.
