I've only done 1 blog before ever, but I felt that I wanted to get out on the web my observations and thoughts on volume two, and get people's opinions on them. So let's take it from the top.


 * ===What will happen with Roman?===
 * Whatever happens, I doubt that he's just going to stay in prison unless he has a reason he needs to be there for.  If he does stay, then what for?  As for why he could easily escape, there are two reasons.  The first is Neo.  She's still unaccounted for, and what she pulled off in "Painting The Town..." means she could very well be able to just break in and make him vanish from custody.  The second is that he likely has an accomplice on the inside of Ironwood's organization if he could get all those paladins by the time they were just being announced to the public, and they would have to be a high ranking member at that.  Such a person could see he gets the oppertunity to escape once he nedds it.  Which brings us to our next point.




 * ===How did Roman get all those Paladins, and why is noone looking into it?===
 * Ever since "Painting The Town..." we've all been asking this, but those mechs can't be cheap and the latest episode means the people in charge should have definite proof that the White Fang had more than a dozen of them.  And yet they're willing to ignore this while wanting to look into how Ozpin runs beacon?!  Seriously, WTF?!  Not only that, but they're still willing to have Ironwood in charge of security at the Vytal festival?  Please tell me that I'm not the only one who thinks that's just asking for something to go wrong.




 * ===Just what was the point of leading Grimm into Vale?===
 * The plan was forced into operation weeks early, the grimm were taken out and the damage fixed, and yet Cinder still considered it a success.  I think it's the same as when Mercury fought Phyrra, to gather information on people's strengths, weaknesses and capabilities.  If so, then it might be a good thing Velvet didn't get to show off her weapon.


 * Alternatively (or possibly also, for why not kill two birds with one stone), the whole thing could have been a distraction.  Cinder left without doing anything, and while she couldn't afford to be seen fighting, she may also had some task she needed to do, but couldn't normally do so without blowing her cover.  If all the guards were distracted by, say, a massive Grimm attack in the middle of the city however...


 * And finally,




 * ===What is Cinder's end goal?===
 * 'Nuff said.
